越人歌（The Yue Folk's Song）

越人歌

先秦：佚名

今夕何夕兮，搴舟中流。
今日何日兮，得与王子同舟。
蒙羞被好兮，不訾诟耻。
心几烦而不绝兮，得知王子。
山有木兮木有枝，心悦君兮君不知。

What a beautiful night is this?
Drifting down midstream of the river.
What a graceful day is this?
Same boat with the prince.
So grateful for the fondness,
to meet with your gracious consent .
I'm thrilled and my heart beat like a hammer,
to even get to see you, my dear Prince.
Trees live on mountains and branches live on trees,
and there's my heart live for you,but you never know.
