How Bright the Moon
明月何皎皎，
照我罗床帏。
The bright moon, how it shines; it lights my gauze bed-curtain.
忧愁不能寐，
揽衣起徘徊。
Sorrowful, I cannot sleep; I gather up my robe and rise to pace about.
客行虽云乐，
不如早旋归。
Though they say a traveller's life is pleasant, better to turn and go home early.
出户独彷徨，
愁思当告谁！
I go out of the door and wander alone; this sad thought—to whom can I tell it!
引领还入房，
泪下沾裳衣。
I stretch my neck and go back into the room; my tears fall and wet my clothes.
