我住在河的上游,你住在河的下游。
日日想念你,却看不見你。
可是,我門一同喝河水。
此水何時流尽,此念何時停止。
愿我門活長久,rang水把我的思念流到天涯海角。
谢谢。

It is famous Chinese poem written in Song dynasty .
it is:

poem name:卜算子

author: 李之仪 (宋)

我住长江头,君住长江尾。

日日思君不见君,共饮长江水。

此水几时休?此恨几时已?

只愿君心似我心,定不负相思意。

关于李之仪生平行状目前还有一些问题争议未决
李之仪及第时间当从《全宋诗》定为熙宁六年(1073),其任县令的 万全县当为万泉县,从军鄜延时间当为元丰四年(1081)九月,元丰六年 (1083)春回京,年底被辟出使高丽,次年初正式出发,元丰八年 (1085)回京,任翰林学士知制诰.

the author of this poem had been to korean in 1083, in 1085 he was back to China.

Famous Chinese works of poetry already have translations in Japanese:

In Japan, the poem as written in Chinese (at top of the website page) is written as is and "read orally" in Japanese as shown below it. This requires practice and is part of "kanbun" (漢文) practice (taught in high school and for Japanese literature majors on the university level).

HTH! :-)

I live upriver and you live downriver.
I miss you day after day but can't see you, though we eat the same river water.
when will the water end? and when will the miss be over?
I wish you miss me just like I miss you, we do have each other in mind.
