嘒彼小星,三五在东。 肃肃宵征,夙夜在公。寔命不同。 嘒彼小星,维参与昴。 肃肃宵征,抱衾与裯。寔命不犹。
Those little stars, three or five in the east. Solemnly I journey through the night, working tirelessly day and night, yet my fate is different. Those little stars, Orion and Pleiades. Solemnly I journey through the night, embracing my quilt and blankets, yet my fate remains unchanged.
