詩經 Book of Odes - 有駜 YOU BI
有駜有駜、駜彼乘黃。
夙夜在公、在公明明。
振振鷺、鷺于下。
鼓咽咽、醉言舞。
于胥樂兮。
有駜有駜、駜彼乘牡。
夙夜在公、在公飲酒。
振振鷺、鷺于飛。
鼓咽咽、醉言歸。
于胥樂兮。
有駜有駜、駜彼乘駽。
夙夜在公、在公載燕。
自今以始、歲其有。
君子有殼、詒孫子。
于胥樂兮。
Fat and strong , fat and strong ,
Fat and strong , are the chestnut teams .
Early and late are the [officers] in the court ,
In the court , discriminating and intelligent .
[They are as] a flock of egrets on the wing ,
Of egrets anon lighting on the ground .
The drums emit their deep sound ;
They drink to the full and then dance ; --
Thus rejoicing together .
Fat and strong , fat and strong ,
Fat and strong are the teams of stallions .
Early and late are the [officers] with the prince ,
With the prince drinking .
[They are as] a flock of egrets on the wing ,
Of egrets flying about .
The drums emit their deep sound ;
They drink to the full and then return home ; --
Thus rejoicing together .
Fat and strong , fat and strong ,
Fat and strong are the teams of iron-greys .
Early and late are the [officers] with the prince ,
With the prince feasting .
'From this time forth ,
May the years be abundant .
May our prince maintain his goodness ,
And transmit it to his descendants ! ' --
Thus they rejoice together .
