Love and Pain in Chinese / Japanese...

恋の悩み is a Japanese title that refers to anyone having love troubles (experiencing the pain of love).

Note: Because this selection contains some special Japanese Hiragana characters, it should be written by a Japanese calligrapher.

In Chinese, this can mean losing one's love; to breaking up (in a romantic relationship); to feel jilted.

In Japanese Kanji, this means disappointing love, broken heart, unrequited love, or being lovelorn.

失戀 is also valid in old Korean Hanja, which means unrequited love, unreturned love, a disappointment in love, or a broken heart.

Note: In modern Japan, they will tend to write the more simple 失恋 form instead of 失戀. If you order this from the Japanese master calligrapher, expect the more simple modern version to be written (unless you give us instructions to use the older or more traditional version).

疼 can mean hurt, ache, pain or sore in Chinese and old Korean Hanja.

It's also used to speak of the pain of love, and thus its definition also includes “love fondly.” This also means ache, hurt, tingle, or pain in Japanese but is not often seen as a lone Kanji like this in Japanese.

愛別離苦 is a Buddhist term that refers to “the pain of separation from loved ones,” or “the suffering of being separated from those whom one loves.”

If you translate each character separately, you get, “love(s) separated [and] departed [yields] pain.”

The pain character can also be defined as anguish; suffering; distress; anxiety; worry; trouble; difficulty; hardship; bitterness; to suffer; anguish; distress; anxiety; worry; trouble; difficulty; bitterness; unhappiness; or misery.
