X. Shan Yu Fu Su
X
The Shan Yu Fu Su; allusive. A lady mocking her lover.
1On mountain grows the mulberry tree;
The lotus flower in meadow damp.
It is not Tzŭ-tu that I see,
But only you, you foolish scamp!
The lotus flower in meadow damp.
It is not Tzŭ-tu that I see,
But only you, you foolish scamp!
2Polygonums the damp meads cover;
To lofty pines on mountains view.
It is not Tzŭ-ch‘ung comes as lover;
You artful boy, ‘tis only you!
