Midnight Song of the Seasons: Summer Song
Southern Dynasties Yuefu
子夜四时歌·田蚕事已毕
民歌 〔南北朝〕
田蚕事已毕，思妇犹苦身。
当暑理絺服，持寄与行人。
| Field silkworm thing already finished Yearning wife still bitter life Now replacement summer clothes Support send for departed person |
Now I’ve finished tending the fields and silkworms, The yearning woman’s life is still bitter. I have a new set of summer clothes To send to my departed husband. |
