Books referencing 《旱麓》 Library Resources
1 旱麓:
瞻彼旱麓、榛楛濟濟。
豈弟君子、于祿豈弟。
Han Lu:
Look at the foot of the Han,
How abundantly grow the hazel and the arrow-thorn!
Easy and self-possessed was our prince,
In his pursuit of dignity [still] easy and self-possessed!

2 旱麓:
瑟彼玉瓚、黃流在中。
其弟君子、福祿攸降。
Han Lu:
Massive is that libation-cup of jade,
With the yellow liquid [sparkling] in it.
Easy and self-possessed was our prince,
The fit recipient of blessing and dignity.

3 旱麓:
鳶飛戾天、魚躍于淵。
豈弟君子、遐不作人。
Han Lu:
The hawk flies up to heaven;
The fishes leap in the deep.
Easy and self-possessed was our-prince; -
Did he not exert an influence upon men?

4 旱麓:
清酒既載、騂牡既備。
以享以祀、以介景福。
Han Lu:
His clear spirits are in vessel;
His red bull is ready; -
To offer, to sacrifice,
To increase his bright happiness.

5 旱麓:
瑟彼柞棫、民所燎矣。
豈弟君子、神所勞矣。
Han Lu:
Thick grow the oaks and the yu,
Which the people use for fuel.
Easy and self-possessed was our prince,
Cheered and encouraged by the Spirits.

6 旱麓:
莫莫葛藟、施于條枚。
豈弟君子、求福不回。
Han Lu:
Luxuriant are the dolichos and other creepers,
Clinging to the branches and stems,
Easy and self-possessed was our prince,
Seeking for happiness by no crooked ways.
