sorrowful

憂い(うれい)	Sorrowful. $$$

愁い(うれい)	Sorrowful – but more subtle than the OTHER うれい（憂い）. Regular urei is like a homeless guy that is obviously suffering and you can see why. 愁い is like a elegant woman in a kimono going to a temple and carrying with her a subtle poetic aura of sadness. Older Japanese guys go for this.
