雝 YONG

有來雝雝、至止肅肅。
相維辟公、天子穆穆。
於薦廣牡、相予肆祀。
假哉皇考、綏予孝子。
宣哲維人、文武維后。
燕及皇天、克昌厥後。
綏我眉壽、介以繁祉。
既友烈考、亦友文母。

They come full of harmony ;
They are here , in all gravity ; --
The princess assisting ,
While the Son of Heaven looks profound .
'While I present [this] noble bull ,
And they assist me in setting forth the sacrifice ,
O great and august Father ,
Comfort me , your filial Son !
'With penetrating wisdom thou did'st play the man ,
A sovereign with the gifts both of peace and war ,
Giving rest even to great Heaven ,
And ensuring prosperity to thy descendants .
'Thou comfortest me with the eyebrows of longevity ;
Thou makest me great with manifold blessings .
I offer this sacrifice to my meritorious father ,
And to my accomplished mother . '
