A Woodcutter’s Love
The tallest Southern tree
Affords no shade for me.
The maiden on the stream
Can but be found in dream.
For me the stream’s too wide
To reach the other side
As River Han’s too long
To cross its current strong.
Of the trees in the wood
I’ll only cut the good.
If she should marry me,
Her stable-man I’d be.
For me the stream’s too wide
To reach the other side
As River Han’s too long
To cross its current strong.
Of the trees here and there
I’ll only cut the fair
If she should marry me,
Her stable-boy I’d be.
For me the stream’s too wide
To reach the other side
As River Han’s too long
To cross its current strong.
*The legend said that there was a Goddes on the River Han,Here the woodcutter compared the maiden he love to a inaccessible Goddess.
