《蜉蝣 - Fu You》

English translation: James Legge [?] Library Resources
1 蜉蝣:
蜉蝣之羽、衣裳楚楚。
心之憂矣、於我歸處。
Fu You:
The wings of the ephemera,
Are robes, bright and splendid.
My heart is grieved; -
Would they but come and abide with me!

2 蜉蝣:
蜉蝣之翼、采采衣服。
心之憂矣、於我歸息。
Fu You:
The wings of the ephemera,
Are robes, variously adorned.
My heart is grieved; -
Would they but come and rest with me!

3 蜉蝣:
蜉蝣掘閱、麻衣如雪。
心之憂矣、於我歸說。
Fu You:
The ephemera bursts from its hole,
With a robe of hemp like snow.
My heart is grieved; -
Would they but come and lodge with me!
