Tsze Han / 30

唐棣之华，偏其反而，岂不尔思，室是远而。子曰，未之思也，夫何远之有。

Modern Chinese Guide

古诗说：唐棣的花朵，翩翩摇摆。我难道不思念你吗？只是你家住得太远了。孔子说：那是没有真正思念罢了，若真思念，又有什么遥远的呢？

James Legge Translation

1. How the flowers of the aspen-plum flutter and turn! Do I not think of you? But your house is distant. 2. The Master said, "It is the want of thought about it. How is it distant?"
