毛詩序：「《杕杜》，勞還役也。」小雅‧鹿鳴之什‧杕杜
有杕之杜，有睆其實。王事靡盬，繼嗣我日。日月陽止，女心傷止，征夫遑止。
Solitary stands the russet pear tree,
With its fruit so bright.
The king's business must not be slackly performed,
And the days are prolonged with us one after another.
The sun and moon are in the tenth month.
My woman's heart is wounded;
My soldier might have leisure [to return]!
有杕之杜，其葉萋萋。王事靡盬，我心傷悲。卉木萋止，女心悲止，征夫歸止。
Solitary stands the russet pear tree,
With its leaves so luxuriant.
The king's business must not be slackly performed,
And my heart is wounded and sad.
The plants and trees are luxuriant,
But my heart is sad.
O that my soldier might return!
陟彼北山，言采其杞。王事靡盬，憂我父母。檀車幝幝，四杜痯痯，征夫不遠。
I ascended that hill in the north,
To gather the medlars.
The king's business must not be slackly performed,
And our parents are made sorrowful.
His chariot of sandal wood must be damaged;
His four horses must be worn out;
My soldier cannot be far off.
匪載匪來，憂心孔疚。期逝不至，而多為恤。卜筮偕止，會言近止，征夫邇止。
They have not packed up, they do not come;
My sorrowing heart is greatly distressed.
The time is past, and he is not here,
To the multiplication of my sorrows.
Both by the tortoise shell and the reeds have I divined,
And they unite in saying he is near.
My soldier is at hand!
《杕杜》，四章，章七句。
