Lament of Hsi-chün
My people have married me
In a far corner of Earth:
Sent me away to a strange land,
To the king of the Wu-sun.
A tent is my house,
Of felt are my walls;
Raw flesh my food
With mare's milk to drink,
Always thinking of my own country,
My heart sad within.
Would I were a yellow stork
And could fly to my old home!
