乃在大海南。
Who resides far south across the sea.
何用问遗君？
What may serve as souvenir from the girl?
双珠玳瑁簪，
A hawksbill turtle hairpin with some pearl,
用玉绍缭之。
Decorated with precious jade as curl.
闻君有他心，
When I hear that his heart has gone astray,
拉杂摧烧之。
I break it, smash it, then burn it right away.
摧烧之，当风扬其灰。
I smash the pin, I burn the pin,
从今以往，
I scatter all the ashes to the wind.
勿复相思！
From this day on,
相思与君绝！
All my thoughts of you are gone!
鸡鸣狗吠，兄嫂当知之。
I want to have no further thought of you!
妃呼豨！秋风肃肃晨风飓，
But wait, once we kept our rendezvous;
东方须臾高知之。
My brother and his wife must have the clue!
