采薇 Cai Wei
昔我往矣， When I left here,
杨柳依依。 Willow shed tear.
今我来思， I came back now,
雨雪霏霏。 Snow bends the bough.
行道迟迟， Long, long the way, hard, hard the day.
载饥载渴。 Hunger and thirst, press me the worst.
我心伤悲， My grief overflows.
莫知我哀。 Who knows, Who knows.
Lyrics are from Book of Odes. Translation by Xu Yuanchong.
