終朝采綠、不盈一匊。 予髮曲局、薄言歸沐。 |

All the morning I gather the king-grass, And do not collect enough to fill my hands. My hair is in a wisp; - I will go home and wash it. | |

終朝采藍、不盈一襜。 五日為期，六日不詹。 |

All the morning I gather the indigo plant, And do not collect enough to fill my apron. Five days was the time agreed on; - It is the sixth, and I do not see him. | |

之子于狩，言韔其弓。 之子于釣，言綸之繩。 |

When he went a hunting, I put the bow in its case for him. When he went to fish, I arranged his line for him. | |

其釣維何，維魴及鱮。 維魴及鱮，薄言觀者。 |
| Cai Lu: |
What did he take in angling? Bream and tench; - Bream and tench, While people [looked on] to see. |
