《葛藟 - Ge Lei》

 English translation: James Legge [?] Library Resources
1 葛藟:
緜緜葛藟、在河之浒。
终远兄弟、谓他人父。
谓他人父、亦莫我顾。
Ge Lei:
Thickly they spread about, the dolichos creepers,
On the borders of the He.
For ever separated from my brothers,
I call a stranger father.
I call a stranger father,
But he will not look at me.

2 葛藟:
緜緜葛藟、在河之涘。
终远兄弟、谓他人母。
谓他人母、亦莫我有。
Ge Lei:
Thickly they spread about, the dolichos creepers,
On the banks of the He.
For ever separated from my brothers,
I call a stranger mother.
I call a stranger mother,
But she will not recognize me.

3 葛藟:
緜緜葛藟、在河之漘。
终远兄弟、谓他人昆。
谓他人昆、亦莫我闻。
Ge Lei:
Thickly they spread about, the dolichos creepers,
On the lips of the He.
For ever separated from my brothers,
I call a stranger elder-brother.
I call a stranger elder-brother,
But he will not listen to me.
