蒹葭蒼蒼 白露為霜
所謂伊人 在水一方
Green, green the reed
Dew and frost gleam
Where’s she I need
Beyond the stream
溯洄從之 道阻且長
溯游從之 宛在水中央
Upstream I go
the way is long
Downstream I go
She’s there among
蒹葭萋萋 白露未晞
所謂伊人 在水之湄
White, white the reed
Dew not yet dried
Where’s she I need
On the other side
溯洄從之 道阻且躋
溯游從之 宛在水中坻
Upstream I go
Hard is the way
Downstream I go
She’s far away
蒹葭采采 白露未已
所謂伊人 在水之涘
Bright, bright the reed
Dew and frost blend
Where’s she I need
At river’s end
溯洄從之 道阻且右
溯游從之 宛在水中沚
Upstream I go
The way does wind
Downstream I go
She’s far behind
