There was the millet with its drooping heads ;
There was the sacrificial millet into blade .
Slowly I moved about ,
In my heart all-agitated .
Those who knew me ,
Said I was sad at heart .
Those who did not know me ,
Said I was seeking for something .
O distant and azure Heaven !
By what man was this [brought about] ?
There was the millet with its drooping heads ;
There was the sacrificial millet in the ear .
Slowly I moved about ,
My heart intoxicated , as it were , [with grief] .
Those who knew me ,
Said I was sad at heart .
Those who did not know me ,
Said I was seeking for something .
O thou distant and azure Heaven !
By what man was this [brought about] ?
There was the millet with its drooping heads ;
There was the sacrificial millet in grain .
Slowly I moved about ,
As if there were a stoppage at my heart .
Those who knew me ,
Said I was sad at heart .
Those who did not know me ,
Said I was seeking for something .
O thou distant and azure Heaven !
By what man was this [brought about] ?
