采桑子Gathering Mulberries

<<采桑子 >>赏析
——吕本中

 

恨君不似江楼月，南北东西。南北东西，只有相随无别离。
恨君却似江楼月，暂满还亏。暂满还亏，待得团圆是几时？

 

TUNE: GATHERING MULBERRIES
——Lu Benzhong

 

I’m grieved to find you unlike the moon at its best, north, south, east, west. North, south, eat, west, it would accompany me without any rest.

 

I’m grieved to find you like the moon which would fain now wax, now wane. You wax and wane. When will you come around like the full moon again?
