薄衾小枕凉天气，
乍觉别离滋味。
辗转数寒更，
起了还重睡。
毕竟不成眠，
一夜长如岁。
也拟待却回征辔，
又争奈已成行计！
万种思量，
多方开解，
只恁寂寞厌厌地。
系我一生心，
负你千行泪。
In thin quilt on small pillow when weather is cold,
I begin to feel now the parting sorrow deep.
I toss from side to side until night has grown old;
I get up and lie down, but I can’t fall asleep.
The night would appear
As long as a year.
I would have gone back to see you and stay,
But I’m so far away.
Thousands of thoughts and lame excuses only
Make me feel all the more dreary and lonely.
I shall miss you for the rest of my years,
Which can’t compensate you for all your tears.
