予所求兮，

I think I was searching for treasures or stones

于清潦兮，

in the clearest of pools

灿若琼瑶，

when your face…

君之颜兮。

when your face,

君之颜兮，

like the moon in a well

若明月兮。

where I might wish…

井中之月，

乱我心兮。

might well wish

for the iced fire of your kiss;

乱我心兮，

only on water my lips, where your face…

念君唇兮。

如冰如火，

where your face was reflected, lovely,

唯波痕兮。

not really there when I turned

to look behind at the emptying air…

唯波痕兮，

君不在兮。

the emptying air.

回望高天，

空且远兮，

远且空兮。
