I search the seek,

I'm lonely and depressed¹,

I'm sad ,weepy , and feeling low .

When it suddenly gets warm but shortly returns cold,

That is the time really hard to cope.

Two,three cups of light wine------

How are they to resist the assault of evening gusts²?

A flock of wild geese flew past,

It hurts to hear them cry,though we're old acquaintances.

Chrysanthemums³ lies about in piles.

They are now withered⁴ and which ones are worth picking ?

Alone by the casement⁵,

How am I to bear the darkness?

Add to this , the parasol tree and a thin rain falling .

By dusk time,

The dripping became incessant⁶ ,

Steeped in a mood such as this ,

To say I am sad is woefully inadequate⁷.

寻寻觅觅，

冷冷清清，

凄凄惨惨戚戚，

最难将息，

三杯两盏淡酒，

怎敌他，晚来风急！

雁过也，

正伤心，却是旧时相识。

满地黄花堆积，

憔悴损，如今有谁堪摘！

守得窗儿，

独自怎生得黑！

梧桐更兼细雨，

到黄昏，

点点滴滴。

这次第，

怎一个愁字了得！
