Books referencing 《车舝》 Library Resources
1 车舝:
间关车之舝兮、思娈季女逝兮。
匪饥匪渴、德音来括。
虽无好友、式燕且喜。
Che Xia:
Jian-guan went the axle ends of my carriage,
As I thought of the young beauty, and went [to fetch her].
It was not that I was hungry or thirsty,
But [I longed] for one of such virtuous fame to come and be with me.
Although no good friends be with us,
We will feast and be glad.

2 车舝:
依彼平林、有集维鷮。
辰彼硕女、令德来教
式燕且誉、好尔无射。
Che Xia:
Dense is that forest in the plain,
And there sit the long-tailed pheasants.
In her proper season that well-grown lady,
With her admirable virtue, is come to instruct me.
We will feast, and I will praise her.
' I love you, and will never be weary of you. '

3 车舝:
虽无旨酒、式饮庶几。
虽无嘉淆、式食庶几。
虽无德与女、式歌且舞。
Che Xia:
Although I have no good spirits,
We will drink [what I have], and perhaps [be satisfied].
Although I have no good viands,
We will eat [what I have], and perhaps [be satisfied].
Although I have no virtue to impart to you,
We will sing and dance.

4 车舝:
陟彼高冈、析其柞薪。
析其柞薪、其叶湑兮。
鲜我觏尔、我心写兮。
Che Xia:
I ascend that lofty ridge,
And split the branches of the oaks for firewood.
I split the branches of the oaks for firewood,
Amid the luxuriance of their leaves.
I see you whose match is seldom to be seen,
And my whole heart is satisfied.

5 车舝:
高山仰止、景行行止。
四牡騑騑、六辔如琴。
觏尔新昏、以慰我心。
Che Xia:
The high hill is looked up to;
The great road is easy to be travelled on.
My four steeds advanced without stopping;
The six reins [made music] in my hands like lute-[strings].
I see you my bride,
To the comfort of my heart.
