伐木 - Fa Mu

English translation: James Legge [?]
Books referencing 《伐木》 Library Resources
2 伐木:
伐木許許、釃酒有藇。
既有肥羜、以速諸父
寧適不來、微我弗顧。
於粲洒掃、陳饋八簋。
既有肥牡、以速諸舅。
寧適不來、微我有咎。
Fa Mu:
Xu-xu they go, as they fell the trees.
I have strained off my spirits, till they are fine,
And the fatted lambs are provided,
To which to invite my paternal uncles.
It is better that something should keep them from coming,
Than that I should not have regarded them.
Oh! brightly I have sprinkled and swept my courtyard,
And arranged my viands, with eight dishes of grain, along with my fatted meat,
To which to invite my maternal uncles.
It is better that something should keep them from coming,
Than that there should be blame attaching to me.
