喓喓草虫，趯趯阜螽，未见君子，忧心忡忡，亦既见止，亦既觏止，我心则祥。
陟彼南山，言采其厥，未见君子，忧心惙惙。亦既见止，亦既觏止，我心则悦。
陟彼南山，言采其厥，未见君子，我心伤悲。亦既见止，亦既觏止，我心则夷。
Yao-Yao went the grass-insects ,
andtand the hoppers sprang about .
while I do not see my lord ,
my sorrowful heart is agitated .
let me have seen him ,
let me have met him ,
and my heart will then be stilled .
I ascended that hill in the south ,
and gathered the turtle-foot ferns .
while I do not see my lord ,
my sorrowful heart is very sad .
let me have seen him ,
let me have met him ,
and my heart will then be pleased .
I ascended that hill in the south ,
and gathered the thorn-ferns .
while I do not see my lord ,
my sorrowful heart is wounded with grief .
let me have seen him ,
let me have met him ,
and my heart will then be at peace .
