On the mound where is the hemp,

Some one is detaining Tsze-tsёay.

Some one is there detaining Tsze-tsёay; —

Would that he would come jauntily (to me)!

On the mound where is the wheat,

Some one is detaining Tsze-kwoh.

Some one is there detaining Tse-kwoh; — 

Would that he would come and eat with me!

On the mound where are the plum trees,

Some one is detaining those youths.

Some one is there detaining those youths; —

They will give me kёw-stones for my girdle.
