Books referencing 《杕杜》 Library Resources
1 杕杜:
有杕之杜、其叶湑湑。
独行踽踽。
岂无他人、不如我同父。
嗟行之人、胡不比焉。
人无兄弟、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、其叶菁菁。
独行睘睘。
岂无他人、不如我同姓。
嗟行之人、胡不比焉。
人无兄弟、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?
