English translation: James Legge [?]
Books referencing 《七月》 Library Resources
7 七月:
九月筑场圃、十月纳禾稼。
黍稷重穋、禾麻菽麦。
嗟我农夫、我稼既同、上入执宫功。
昼尔于茅、宵尔索綯
亟其乘屋、其始播百谷。
Qi Yue:
In the ninth month, they prepare the vegetable gardens for their stacks,
And in the tenth they convey the sheaves to them;
The millets, both the early sown and the late,
With other grain, the hemp, the pulse, and the wheat.
' O my husbandmen,
Our harvest is all collected.
Let us go to the town, and be at work on our houses.
In the day time collect the grass,
And at night twist it into ropes;
Then get up quickly on our roofs; -
We shall have to recommence our sowing. '
