Books referencing 《鴻雁》 Library Resources
1 鴻雁:
鴻雁于飛、肅肅其羽。
之子于征、劬勞于野。
爰及矜人、哀此鰥寡
Hong Yan:
The wild geese are flying about;
Su-su goes the rustle of their wings.
[There were] those officers engaged on the commission.
Pained were we and toiled in the open fields;
All were objects of pity,
But alas for those wifeless and widows!

2 鴻雁:
鴻雁于飛、集于中澤。
之子于垣、百堵皆作。
雖則劬勞、其究安宅。
Hong Yan:
The wild geese are flying about;
And they settle in the midst of the marsh.
[There were] those officers directing the rearing of the walls; -
Five thousand cubits of them arose at once.
Though there was pain and toil,
In the end we had rest in our dwellings.

3 鴻雁:
鴻雁于飛、哀鳴嗷嗷。
維此哲人、謂我劬勞。
維彼愚人、謂我宣驕。
Hong Yan:
The wild geese are flying about,
And melancholy is their cry of ao-ao.
There were they, wise men,
Who recognized our pain and toil;
If they had been stupid men,
They would have said we were proclaiming our insolence.
