 English translation: James Legge [?]
Books referencing 《墓门》 Library Resources
1 墓门:
墓门有棘、斧以斯之。
夫也不良、国人知之。
知而不已、谁昔然矣。
Mu Men:
At the gate to the tombs there are jujube trees; -
They should be cut away with an axe.
That man is not good,
And the people of the State know it.
They know it, but he does not give over; -
Long time has it been thus with him.

2 墓门:
墓门有梅、有鴞萃止。
夫也不良、歌以讯之。
讯予不顾、颠倒思予。
Mu Men:
At the gate to the tombs there are plum trees;
And there are owls collecting on them.
That man is not good,
And I sing [this song] to admonish him.
I admonish him, but he will not regard me; -
When he is overthrown, he will think of me.
