Shijing I. 7. (94)

On the moor is the creeping grass,
And how heavily is it loaded with dew !
There was a beautiful man,
Lovely, with clear eyes and fine forehead !
We met together accidentally,
And so my desire was satisfied.

On the moor is the creeping grass,
Heavily covered with dew !
There was a beautiful man,
Lovely, with clear eyes and fine forehead !
We met together accidentally,
And he and I were happy together.

Legge 94

Aux champs sont liserons
tout chargés de rosée !
Il est belle personne
avec de jolis yeux !
J'en ai fait la rencontre :
elle est selon mes vœux !

Aux champs sont liserons
tout couverts de rosée !
Il est belle personne
avec de jolis yeux !
J'en ai fait la rencontre :
avec toi tout est bien !

Granet X.
