毛詩:「《湛露》,天子諸侯。」


湛露
湛湛

Heavy lies the dew;
Nothing but the sun can dry it.
Happily and long into the night we drink; -
Till all are drunk, there is no retiring.

湛湛豐草

Heavy lies the dew;
On that luxuriant grass.
Happily and long into the night we drink.
In the honoured apartment we complete our carousal.

湛湛君子莫不令德

Heavy lies the dew;
On those willows and jujube trees.
Distinguished and true are my noble guests, -
Every one of excellent virtue.

其實豈弟君子莫不

From the Tong and the Yi,
Their fruit hangs down.
Happy and self-possessed are my noble guests, -
Every one of them of excellent deportment.

湛露》,
