月出

月出皎兮。
佼人僚兮。
舒窈糾兮。
勞心悄兮。
月出皓兮。
佼人懰兮。
舒懮受兮。
勞心慅兮。
月出照兮。
佼人燎兮。
舒夭紹兮。
勞心慘兮。

YUE CHU

The moon comes forth in her brightness;
How lovely is that beautiful lady!
O to have my deep longings for her relieved!
How anxious is my toiled heart!
The moon comes forth in her splendour;
How attractive is that beautiful lady!
O to have my anxieties about her relieved!
How agitated is my toiled heart!
The moon comes forth and shines;
How brilliant is that beautiful lady!
O to have the chains of my mind relaxed!
How miserable is my toiled heart!
