Fruit of peach tree / Is used as food.
It saddens me
To sing and brood.
Who knows me not / Says I am proud.
He’s right in what? / Tell me aloud.
I’m full of woes
园有棘,其实之食。
心之忧矣,聊以行国。
不我知者,谓我士也罔极。
彼人是哉,子曰何其。
心之忧矣,其谁知之。
其谁知之,盖亦勿思。
许渊冲
My heart would sink,
But no one knows, / For none will think,
Of garden tree / I eat the date.
It saddens me
To roam the state.
Who knows me not / For none will think.
