Far and Far the Altair Stars

Far and far the Altair stars
Han Anonymous
Translated by Laijon Liu 20100103

Far and far the Altair stars,
Bright and bright is the Vega.
Her beautiful soft hands
Weaving with her loom.
Day and day she’s never done,
Her tears stream like rain.
The Milky Way seems so shallow,
But how long they must wade?
And now they can only stand
On the bank, look toward each other
And sharing no word, but thoughts.
