We shall investigate the non-radial pulsation of a boson star and the associated graviational waves. As the first step we here formulate the linearized perturbation around an equilibrium boson star in general relativity using the tensor harmonics and derive the perturbation equations for odd and even parity modes. It is found that the perturbations with odd parity do not couple with gravitational waves and the set of equations for even parity perturbations reduces to sixth-order system of differential equations
