今王公大人，As the rulers
唯毋處高臺厚榭之上而視之， look down from a high tower or in a grand arbour,
鍾猶是延鼎也， a bell is just like an inverted ding.
弗撞擊將何樂得焉哉？ If it is not struck wherefrom would come the pleasure?
其說將必撞擊之， Therefore it must be struck.
惟勿撞擊，To strike it of course
將必不使老與遲者， the aged and the young would not be employed.
老與遲者耳目不聰明， For their eyes and ears are not keen,
股肱不畢強， their arms are not strong,
聲不和調，and they cannot produce an harmonious tone
明不轉朴。 with varied expression.
將必使當年，因其耳目之聰明，股肱之畢強，聲之和調，眉之轉朴。So, those in the prime of life must be employed because their eyes and ears are keen, their limbs strong, their voices harmonious and varied in expression.
使丈夫為之，If men are employed
廢丈夫耕稼樹藝之時， it interferes with their ploughing and planting.
使婦人為之，If women are employed
廢婦人紡績織紝之事。 it interferes with their weaving and spinning.
今王公大人唯毋為樂，虧奪民衣食之財，以拊樂如此多也。Now, the rulers take to music and deprive the people of their means of clothing and food to such an extent!
是故子墨子曰：「為樂，非也。」Therefore Mozi said: To have music is wrong.
