Longing

by James Legge
He's there, the dolichos among!
Only one day from sight away—
To me it seems as three months long!

He's there, among the southernwood!
Only one day from sight away—
It seems three seasons' solitude!

Among the mugwort he appears!
Only one day from sight away—
To me it seems as three full years!
