青青子矜，
悠悠我心。
纵我不往，
子宁不嗣音？

青青子佩，
悠悠我思。
纵我不往，
子宁不来？

挑兮达兮，
在城阙兮，
一日不见，
如三月兮。

Blue Blue Your Collar

—From the Book of Odes

Blue blue your collar,
sad sad my heart:
though I do not go to you,
why don't you send word?

Blue blue your belt-stone,
sad sad my thoughts:
though I do not go to you,
why don't you come?

Restless, heedless,
I walk the gate tower.
One day not seeing you
is three months long.

(Tr. Burton Watson 译，文殊选注)
