1 | 杕杜: |
有杕之杜、其葉湑湑。 獨行踽踽。 豈無他人、不如我同父。 嗟行之人、胡不比焉。 人無兄弟、胡不佽焉。 |
Di Du: |
There is a solitary russet pear tree, [But] its leaves are luxuriant. Alone I walk unbefriended; - Is it because there are no other people? But none are like the sons of one's father. O ye travellers, Why do ye not sympathize with me? Without brothers as I am, Why do ye not help me? | |
2 | 杕杜: |
有杕之杜、其葉菁菁。 獨行睘睘。 豈無他人、不如我同姓。 嗟行之人、胡不比焉。 人無兄弟、胡不佽焉。 |
Di Du: |
There is a solitary russet pear tree, [But] its leaves are abundant. Alone I walk uncared for; - Is it that there are not other people? But none are like those of one's own surname. O ye travellers, Why do ye not sympathize with me? Without brothers as I am, Why do ye not help me? |
