故山歸計何時決?
舊交新貴音書絕。
A pale face with hair grey, When can I go home without care?
唯有佳人,
猶作殷勤別。
No word's received from my friends old or new, Only the songstress fair
離亭欲去歌聲咽,
瀟瀟細雨涼吹頰。
Comes to sing for me a song of adieu. On leaving the pavilion, with sobs she sings;
淚珠不用羅巾裹。
彈在羅衫,
The chilly breeze a drizzling rain to my cheeks brings. Don't use your handkerchief to wipe your tears away!
圖得見時說。
Let them fall on your silken sleeves!
