The Song of the Yue People: Love in a Troubled Era

What evening is this, that I pole my boat into the stream? What day is this, that I share a boat with the prince? I am shamed by your kindness, yet I care not for scorn or disgrace. My heart is troubled and restless, for I have learned of the prince. The mountain has trees, and the trees have branches; my heart delights in you, but you do not know.
