关 雎
关关雎鸠，在河之洲。
窈窕淑女，君子好逑。
参差荇菜，左右流之。
窈窕淑女，寤寐求之。
求之不得，寤寐思服。
悠哉悠哉，辗转反侧。
参差荇菜，左右采之。
窈窕淑女，琴瑟友之。
参差荇菜，左右芼之。
窈窕淑女，钟鼓乐之。
《关雎》作者无名氏，选自《诗经·国风·周南》开篇第一首，是先秦汉族民歌。《论语·八佾》载“子曰：《关雎》乐而不淫，哀而不伤。”
The Grebes Coo, a pre-Qin poem, author unknown, is the first poem in Book of Songs.
Confucius commented in Eight Rows of Analects: “jolly without lust, sorrow without pain”, which has been highly deemed by celebrities since then.
The Grebes Coo
Tr. Zhao Yanchun
Do-do, the grebes do coo
At shoal amid the stream；
The lad is keen to woo
The lass, a virtuous dream.
Lush grows the water grass;
She picks it left and right.
The lad would court the lass,
A-craving day and night.
No chance to win her hand,
Asleep, awake, he yearns.
Long night he cannot stand;
He tosses and he turns.
Lush grows the water grass;
She plucks it left and right.
Lutes, flutes, do cheer the lass,
Her interest to invite.
Lush grows the water grass;
She culls it left and right.
Bells, drums, do please the lass,
Her humor to delight.
