毛詩序：「《將仲子》，刺莊公也。不勝其母以害其弟，弟叔失道而公弗制，祭仲諫而公弗聽，小不忍以致大亂焉。」將仲子
將仲子兮，無踰我里，無折我樹杞。豈敢愛之？畏我父母。仲可懷也，父母之言，亦可畏也。
I pray you, Mr. Zhong,
Do not come leaping into my hamlet;
Do not break my willow trees.
Do I care for them?
But I fear my parents.
You, O Zhong, are to be loved,
But the words of my parents,
Are also to be feared.
將仲子兮，無踰我牆，無折我樹桑。豈敢愛之？畏我諸兄。仲可懷也，諸兄之言，亦可畏也。
I pray you, Mr. Zhong,
Do not come leaping over my wall;
Do not break my mulberry trees.
Do I care for them?
But I fear the words of my brothers.
You, O Zhong, are to be loved,
But the words of my brothers,
Are also to be feared.
將仲子兮，無踰我園，無折我樹檀。豈敢愛之？畏人之多言。仲可懷也，人之多言，亦可畏也！
I pray you, Mr. Zhong,
Do not come leaping into my garden;
Do not break my sandal trees.
Do I care for them?
But I dread the talk of people.
You, O Zhong, are to be loved,
But the talk of people,
Is also to be feared.
