《闵予小子 - Min Yu Xiao Zi》

 English translation: James Legge [?] Library Resources
1 闵予小子:
闵予小子、遭家不造、嬛嬛在疚。
于乎皇考、永世克孝。
念兹皇祖、陟降庭止。
维予小子、夙夜敬止。
于乎皇王、继序思不忘。
Min Yu Xiao Zi:
Alas for me, who am [as] a little child,
On whom has devolved the unsettled State!
Solitary am I and full of distress.
Oh! my great Father,
All thy life long, thou wast filial.
Thou didst think of my great grandfather,
[Seeing him, as it were,] ascending and descending in the court.
I, the little child,
Day and night will be so reverent.
Oh! ye great kings,
As your successor, I will strive not to forget you.
