毛詩序：「《車舝》，大夫刺幽王也。褒姒嫉妒，無道並進，讒巧敗國，德澤不加於民。周人思得賢女以配君子，故作是詩也。」車舝
閒關車之舝兮，思孌季女逝兮。匪飢匪渴，德音來括。雖無好友，式燕且喜。
Jian-guan went the axle ends of my carriage,
As I thought of the young beauty, and went [to fetch her].
It was not that I was hungry or thirsty,
But [I longed] for one of such virtuous fame to come and be with me.
Although no good friends be with us,
We will feast and be glad.
依彼平林，有集維鷮。辰彼碩女，令德來教。式燕且譽，好爾無射。
Dense is that forest in the plain,
And there sit the long-tailed pheasants.
In her proper season that well-grown lady,
With her admirable virtue, is come to instruct me.
We will feast, and I will praise her.
' I love you, and will never be weary of you.
雖無旨酒，式飲庶幾。雖無嘉殽，式食庶幾。雖無德與女，式歌且舞。[1]
Although I have no good spirits,
We will drink [what I have], and perhaps [be satisfied].
Although I have no good viands,
We will eat [what I have], and perhaps [be satisfied].
Although I have no virtue to impart to you,
We will sing and dance.
陟彼高岡，析其柞薪。析其柞薪，其葉湑兮。鮮我覯爾，我心寫兮。
I ascend that lofty ridge,
And split the branches of the oaks for firewood.
I split the branches of the oaks for firewood,
Amid the luxuriance of their leaves.
I see you whose match is seldom to be seen,
And my whole heart is satisfied.
高山仰止，景行行止。四牡騑騑，六轡如琴。覯爾新昏，以慰我心。
The high hill is looked up to;
The great road is easy to be travelled on.
My four steeds advanced without stopping;
The six reins [made music] in my hands like lute-[strings].
I see you my bride,
To the comfort of my heart.
《車舝》，五章，章六句。
