毛詩序：「《閔予小子》，嗣王朝於廟也。」閔予小子
閔予小子，遭家不造，嬛嬛在疚。
於乎皇考，永世克孝，念茲皇祖，陟降庭止。[1]
維予小子，夙夜敬止。
於乎皇王，繼序思不忘。
Alas for me, who am [as] a little child,
On whom has devolved the unsettled State!
Solitary am I and full of distress.
Oh! my great Father,
All thy life long, thou wast filial.
Thou didst think of my great grandfather,
[Seeing him, as it were,] ascending and descending in the court.
I, the little child,
Day and night will be so reverent.
Oh! ye great kings,
As your successor, I will strive not to forget you.
《閔予小子》，一章，十一句。
