原文
君子偕老,副笄六珈。
委委佗佗,如山如河,象服是宜。
子之不淑,云如之何?
玼兮玼兮,其之翟也。
鬒发如云,不屑髢也;
玉之瑱也,象之揥也,扬且之皙也。
胡然而天也?胡然而帝也?
瑳兮瑳兮,其之展也,
蒙彼绉絺,是绁袢也。
子之清扬,扬且之颜也
。展如之人兮,邦之媛也!
英文翻译
The husband's to their old age,
In her headdress, and the cross-pins, with their six jewels;
Easy and elegant in her movements;
[Stately] as a mountain, [majestic]as a river,
Well beseeming her pictured robes: –
[But] with your want of virtue, O lady,
What have you to do with these things?
How rich and splendid
Is her pleasant-figured robe!
Her black hair in masses like clouds,
No false locks does she descend to.
There are her ear-plugs of jade,
Her comb-pin of ivory,
And her high forehead, so white.
She appears like a visitant from heaven!
She appears like a goddess!
How rich and splendid
Is her robe of state!
It is worn over the finest muslin of dolichos,
The more cumbrous and warm garment being removed.
Clear are her eyes; fine is her forehead;
Full are her temples.
Ah ! such a woman as this!
The beauty of the country!
注释
偕老:共同生活到老。
副:王后的首饰。
