迢迢牽牛星-佚名（東漢）
Far, Far Away, the Cowherd-Anonymous（Han Dynasty）
迢迢牽牛星，
Far, far away, the Cowherd,
皎皎河漢女。
皎皎河漢女。
Fair, fair, the Weaving Maid,
纖纖擢素手，
纖纖擢素手，
Nimbly move her slender white finger,
札札弄機杼。
札札弄機杼。
Click-clack goes her weaving-loom.
終日不成章，
終日不成章，
All day she weaves, yet her web is still not done.
泣涕零如雨。
泣涕零如雨。
And her tears fall like rain.
河漢清且淺，
河漢清且淺，
Clear and shallow the Milky Way,
相去復幾許？
相去復幾許？
They are not far apart!
盈盈一水間，
盈盈一水間，
But the stream brims always between.
脈脈不得語。
脈脈不得語。
And, gazing at each other, they cannot speak.
