A Fair Maiden

By riverside are cooing

A pair of turtledoves;

A good young man is wooing

A maiden fair he loves.

Water flows left and right

Of cresses here and there;

The youth yearns day and night

For the good maiden fair.

His yearning grows so strong

He cannot fall asleep;

He tosses all night long,

So deep in love, so deep!

Now gather left and right

The cresses sweet and tender;

O lute, play music bright

For the bride fair and slender!

Feast friends at left and right

On cresses cooked so tender;

O bells and drums, delight

The bride so fair and tender!

My Quiet Maiden

My quiet maiden is fair and tall;

She waits for me at the corner wall.

vasive, she can be found nowhere;

Scratching my head, I seek here and there.

Beautiful is my quiet lass;

She gives me a blade of crimson grass.

The crimson grass spreads a rosy light;

I love the grass so fair and bright.

My maiden comes back from the mead;

She gives me a beautiful rare reed.

It's beautiful not because it's rare; But it's the gift of my maiden fair.

不可说也。

桑之落矣，

其黄而陨。

The Faithless Man

A man seemed free from guile,

In trade he wore a smile,

He'd barter cloth for thread;

No, to me he'd be wed.

We went across the ford;

I'd not give him my word.

I said by hillside green,

Try to find one, I pray.

In autumn be the day!

I climbed the wall to wait

To see him pass the gate.

I did not see him pass;

My tears streamed down, alas!

I saw him passing by,

I'd laugh with joy and cry.

Both reed and tortoise shell.

Foretold all would be well.

How fresh were mulberries

With their fruits on the trees!

Beware, O turtledove,

at not the fruits you love,

For they'll intoxicate.

Do not repent too late!

Man may do what they will,

He can atone it still.

The wrong a woman's done

No man will e'er condone.

The mulberries appear

With yellow leaves and sear.

'er since he married me,

I've shared his poverty.

Desert'd, from him I part,

The flood has wet my cart.

I have done nothing wrong;

He changes all along.

He's fickle to excess,

Capricious, pitiless.

Three years I was his wife

And led a toilsome life.

ach day I early rose,

And late I sought repose.

He thought it not enough

And began to become rough

My brothers did not know,

Their jeers at me would go.

Mutely I ruminate

And then deplore my fate.

I'd live with him in vain;

I had cause to complain.

I love the ford of yore

And the wide rivershore.

When we were girl and boy,

We'd talk and laugh with joy.

He pledged to me his troth

Could he forget his oath?

He's forgot what he swore.

Should I say any more?

君子于役

君子于役，

不知其期，

曷至哉？

鸡栖于埘，

日之夕矣，

羊牛下来。

君子于役，

如之何勿思！

君子于役，

不日不月，

曷其有会？

鸡栖于桀，

日之夕矣，

羊牛下括。

君子于役，

苟无饥渴！

My Man's Away

My man's away to serve the state;

I can't anticipate

How long he will there stay

Nor when he'll be on homeward way.

The sun is setting in the west,

The fowls are roosting in their nest,

The sheep and cattle come to rest.

To serve the state my man's away.

How can I not miss him night and day?

My man's away to serve the states;

I can't anticipate

When we'll again have met.

The sun's already set,

The fowls are roosting in their nest,

The sheep and cattle come to rest.

To serve the state my man's away.

Keep him from hunger and thirst, I pray!

女曰鸡鸣

女曰鸡鸣，

士曰昧旦。

子兴视夜，

明星有烂。

将翱将翔，

弋凫与雁。

弋言加之，

与子宜之。

宜言饮酒，

与子偕老。

琴瑟在御，

莫不静好。

知子之来之，

杂佩以赠之。

知子之顺之，

杂佩以问之。

知子之好之，

杂佩以报之。

Cock's Crow, Hark!

The wife says,

The man says,

The morning star shines bright.

I'll shoot them down from high.

I'll dress the game as food.

Together we'll drink wine,

And live to ninety-nine.

With zither by our side,

At peace we shall abide.

I'll give you pearls to wear.

I know your will to obey.

Can pearls and jade repay?

I know your steadfast love,

I value nothing above.

鸡鸣

鸡既鸣矣，

朝既盈矣。

匪鸡则鸣，

苍蝇之声。

东明矣，

朝既昌矣。

匪东则明，

月出之光。

虫飞薨薨，

甘与子同梦。

会且归矣，

无庶予子憎。
