毛詩序：「《隰桑》，刺幽王也。小人在位，君子在野。思見君子，盡心以事之。」隰桑
隰桑有阿，其葉有難。既見君子，其樂如何？
In the low, wet grounds, the mulberry trees are beautiful,
And their leaves are luxuriant.
When I see the princely men,
How great is the pleasure!
隰桑有阿，其葉有沃。既見君子，云何不樂？
In the low, wet grounds, the mulberry trees are beautiful,
And their leaves are glossy.
When I see the princely men,
How can I be other than glad?
隰桑有阿，其葉有幽。既見君子，德音孔膠。
In the low, wet grounds, the mulberry trees are beautiful,
And their leaves are dark.
When I see the princely men,
Their virtuous fame draws them close [to my heart].
心乎愛矣，遐不謂矣？中心藏之，何日忘之？
In my heart I love them,
And why should I not say so?
In the core of my heart I keep them,
And never will forget them.
《隰桑》，五章，章四句。
