诗人: 都人士之什 Dou Renshizhishen
芃芃黍苗，阴雨膏之。悠悠南行，召伯劳之。
我任我辇，我车我牛。我行既集，盖云归哉。
我徒我御，我师我旅。我行既集，盖云归处。
肃肃谢功，召伯营之。烈烈征师，召伯成之。
原隰既平，泉流既清。召伯有成，王心则宁。
Tall and strong grows the young millet,
Fattened by the genial rains.
Very long was our journey to the south,
But the earl of Zhou encouraged and cheered us.
We carried our burdens; we pushed along our barrows;
We drove our waggons; we led our oxen.
When our expedition was accomplished,
We knew we should return.
We went along on foot; we rode in our chariots; --
Our whole host, and our battalions.
When our expedition was accomplished,
We knew we should return home.
Severe was the work at Su,
But the earl of Zhou built the city.
Majestic was the march of our host; --
The earl of Zhou directed it.
The plains and low lands were regulated; --
The springs and streams were cleared.
The earl of Zhou completed his work,
And the heart of the king was at rest. |
