卜算子
– 李之仪 (北宋)
我住长江头，
君住长江尾。
日日思君不见君，
共饮长江水。
此水几时休，
此恨几时已。
只愿君心似我心，
定不负相思意。
Song of Divination
– Li Zhiyi (11th century)
I live upstream and you downstream.
From night to night of you I dream.
Unlike the stream you're not in view,
Though we both drink from River Blue.
Where will the water no more flow?
When will my grief no longer grow?
I wish your heart would be like mine,
Then not in vain for you I pine.
