distance,

金漢星楡冷　　stars were twinkling calmly in the galaxy,

銀河月桂秋　　laurels were blooming in the moon.

靈姿理雲鬂　　the weaver girl dressed up,

仙駕度潢流　　and she started to meet the cowherd from the end of the space.

窈窕鳴衣玉　　rustling sounds of her silk was like an jewel,

玲瓏映彩舟　　she sparkled by her expectations on the bright ship.

所悲明日夜　　but now she feels very sadness because he can't live together anymore,

誰慰別離憂　　no one can solace her grief of parting.
