Yao-yao went the grass-insects, |
|
And the hoppers sprang about. |
|
While I do not see my lord, |
|
My sorrowful heart is agitated. |
|
Let me have seen him, |
|
Let me have met him, |
|
And my heart will then be stilled. |
|
I ascended that hill in the south, |
|
And gathered the turtle-foot ferns. |
|
While I do not see my lord, |
|
My sorrowful heart is very sad. |
|
Let me have seen him, |
|
Let me have met him, |
|
And my heart will then be pleased. |
|
I ascended that hill in the south, |
|
And gathered the thorn-ferns. |
|
While I do not see my lord, |
|
My sorrowful heart is wounded with grief. |
|
Let me have seen him, |
|
Let me have met him, |
|
And my heart will then be at peace. |
