Lyrics to the Melody Dedicated to Lady Yu
Beyond the meandering balustrades skies and waters seem alike,
Against the same balustrade I also leaned that night.
At first I took a bright moon for a sign that could us reunite,
Especially on days with a full moon, for his return I would pine.
Worn is my dress, yet there lingers a fragrance of days that have gone by,
There's nothing to sway me from what I've decided.
One spring's parting leaves me melancholy and lethargic to strings tighten.
Two trails of tears roll freely as I sit before a zither that is priceless.
