The earth hums to me today in the sun, like a woman at her spinning, some ballad of the ancient time in a forgotten tongue.
大地作私语,幽声触韵律。
轻拂我耳畔,沐浴阳光里。
好似纺织女,札扎弄机杼。
低吟古老歌,浅唱无名曲。

The grass-blade is worthy of the great world where it grows.
青青一叶草,郁郁生天际。
不枉此身行,质香漫尘世。

Dream is a wife who must talk. Sleep is a husband who silently suffers.
絮絮梦千语,叨叨妻万言。
幽幽夜不寐,默默夫难堪。
