近日門前溪水漲。The brook in front of my door was rising recently.

郎船幾度偷相訪。His boat came several times on the sly.

船小難開紅斗帳。 But it was too small to accommodate a tent.

無計向。Could do nothing about it.

合歡影里空惆悵。Neither could we unite like a twin lotus, with regret.

願妾身為紅菡萏。Wish I could be a red lotus.

年年生在秋江上。Always flew upon the river.

重願郎為花底浪。And my love could be as the wave below.

無隔障。Without let or hindrance.

隨風逐雨長來往。We could meet anytime on windy or rainy days.
