Confucius - A Man`s Praise Of His WifeConfucius - A Man`s Praise Of His Wife
Work rating:
Low
My path forth from the east gate lay,
Where cloud-like moved the girls at play.
Numerous are they, as clouds so bright,
But not on them my heart`s thoughts light.
Dressed in a thin white silk, with coiffure gray
Is she, my wife, my joy in life`s low way.
Forth by the covering wall`s high tower,
I went, and saw, like rush in flower,
Each flaunting girl. Brilliant are they,
But not with them my heart`s thoughts stay.
In thin white silk, with head-dress madder-dyed,
Is she, my sole delight, `foretime my bride.
