1 | 北山: |
涉彼北山、言采其杞。 偕偕士子、朝夕從事。 王事靡盬、憂我父母。 |
Bei Shan: |
I ascend that northern hill, And gather the medlars. An officer, strong and vigorous, Morning and evening I am engaged in service. The king's business is not to be slackly performed; And my parents are left in sorrow. | |
2 | 北山: |
溥天之下、莫非王土。 率土之濱、莫非王臣。 大夫不均、我從事獨賢。 |
Bei Shan: |
Under the wide heaven, All is the king's land. Within the sea-boundaries of the land, All are the king's servants. His great officers are unfair, - Making me serve thus as if I alone were worthy. | |
3 | 北山: |
四牡彭彭、王事傍傍。 嘉我未老、鮮我方將。 旅力方剛、經營四方。 |
Bei Shan: |
My four horses never halt; The king's business allows no rest. They praise me as not yet old; They think few like me in vigour. While the backbone retains its strength, I must plan and labour in all parts of the kingdom. | |
4 | 北山: |
或燕燕居息、或盡瘁事國。 或息偃在床、或不已于行。 |
Bei Shan: |
Some enjoy their ease and rest, And some are worn out in the service of the State; Some rest and loll upon their couches, And some never cease marching about. | |
5 | 北山: |
或不知叫號、或慘慘劬勞。 或棲遲偃仰、或王事鞅掌。 |
Bei Shan: |
Some never hear a sound, And some are cruelly toiled; Some lazily roost, on their backs looking up, And some are all-bustled in the service of the king. | |
6 | 北山: |
或湛樂飲酒、或慘慘畏咎。 或出入風議、或靡事不為。 |
Bei Shan: |
Some indulge long in pleasure and drinking, And some are miserable, in apprehension of blame; Some, at home and abroad, pass critical remarks, And some have everything to do. |

1 | 小明: |
明明上天、照臨下土。 我征徂西、至于艽野。 二月初吉、載離寒暑。 心之憂矣、其毒大苦。 念彼共人、涕零如雨。 豈不懷歸、畏此罪罟。 |
Xiao Ming: |
O bright and high Heaven, Who enlightenest and rulest this lower world! I marched on this expedition to the west, As far as this wilderness of Qiu. From the first day of the second month, I have passed through the cold and the heat. My heart is sad; The poison [of my lot] is too bitter. I think of those [at court] in their offices, And my tears flow down like rain. Do I not wish to return? But I fear the net for crime. | |

Formerly, when I set out, The sun and moon had renewed the year. When shall I return? The year is now late. I think how I am alone, While the affairs devolving on me are very many. My heart is sad; And I am toiled without any leisure. I think of those [at court] in their offices, Looking back to them with fond regard. Do I not wish to return? But I am afraid of reproof and anger. | |
3 | 小明: |
昔我往矣、日月方奧。 曷云其還、政事愈蹙。 歲聿云莫、采蕭穫菽。 心之憂矣、自詒伊戚。 念彼共人、興言出宿。 豈不懷歸、畏此反覆。 |
Xiao Ming: |
Formerly, when I set out, The sun and moon were giving a mild warmth. When shall I return? The affairs of government are become more urgent. It is late in the year, And we are gathering the southernwood, and reaping the beans. My heart is sad; I give myself nothing but distress. When I think of those [at court] in their offices, I rise and pass the night outside. Do I not wish to return? But I am afraid of the vicissitudes of things. | |
4 | 小明: |
嗟爾君子、無恆安處。 靖共爾位、正直是與。 神之聽之、式穀以女。 |

Ah! ye gentlemen! Do not reckon on your rest being permanent. Quietly fulfil the duties of your offices, Associating with the correct and upright. So shall the Spirits hearken to you, And give you good. | |

嗟爾君子、無恆安息。 靖共爾位、好是正直。 神之聽之、介爾景福。 |
