Let us kiss last once

I hold thy hands whispering:
- What benefit do thou cry?
Let us kiss last once
Thou go back, I leave.

One, two, three years afterward,
I achieve fame to return.
With thou, I breed silkworm,
With thou, I weave fabric.

We’ll be husband and wife.
Will love together for evermore.
Will twist pink silk thread,
Will sing words of love.

I and thou will live,
Under a thatched cottage-roof.
With thin bamboos are gate,
With willow branches are blind.

Listen to me, My dear!
What benefit do thou cry?
Let us kiss last once,
Thou go back, I leave…
