1 有杕之杜:
有杕之杜、生于道左。
彼君子兮、噬肯適我。
中心好之、曷飲食之。
You Di Zhi Du:
There is a solitary russet pear tree,
Growing on the left of the way.
That princely man there!
He might be willing to come to me.
In the centre of my heart I love him,
[But] how shall I supply him with drink and food?

2 有杕之杜:
有杕之杜、生于道周。
彼君子兮、噬肯來遊。
中心好之、曷飲食之。
You Di Zhi Du:
There is a solitary russet pear tree,
Growing where the way makes a compass.
That princely man there!
He might be willing to come and ramble [with me].
In the centre of my heart I love him,
[But] how shall I supply him with drink and food?
