The wind blows to the south,
    and goes around to the north;
round and round goes the wind,
    and on its circuits the wind returns.
All streams run to the sea,
    but the sea is not full;

    there they continue to flow.
All things[a] are wearisome;
    more than one can express;
the eye is not satisfied with seeing,
    or the ear filled with hearing.
