My boy,please don't climb over the wall
and harm my wolfberry tree.
Hush,my parents will find you.
i really wanna tryst with you,but fear my parents get hurt.
My boy,please don't climb over the wall
and tread my lavender field.
Hush,my brothers will find you.
i really wanna tryst with you,but fear my brothers get angry.
My boy,please don't climb over the wall
and pluck the iris on my window.
Hush,people will find you.
i really wanna tryst with you,but fear people get alarmed.
将仲子兮，无逾我里，无折我树杞。岂敢爱之？
畏我父母。仲可怀也，父母之言亦可畏也。
将仲子兮，无逾我墙，无折我树桑。岂敢爱之？
畏我诸兄。仲可怀也，诸兄之言亦可畏也。
将仲子兮，无逾我园，无折我树檀。岂敢爱之？
畏人之多言。仲可怀也，人之多言亦可畏也。
