兀自

wù zì dāi xiǎng

兀自呆想

be mooning by oneself

tā què hái dāi dāi de wàng zhe kōng chuáng wù zì chū shén

他却还呆呆地望着空床兀自出神。

He found himself still looking at the vacantcot.

wǒ zhǐ shì wù zì sì chù kàn jìng jìng qīng tīng ǒu ěr zuò mèng

我只是兀自四处看，静静倾听，偶尔做梦。

I am free to do nothing but watch and listen and dream.
