【佚名】《氓》
氓之蚩蚩,抱布貿(mào)絲。匪來貿(mào)絲,來即我謀。送子涉淇,至于頓丘。匪我愆期,子無良媒。將子無怒,秋以為期。 乘彼垝垣,以望復(fù)關(guān)。不見復(fù)關(guān),泣涕漣漣。既見復(fù)關(guān),載笑載言。爾卜爾筮,體無咎言。以爾車來,以我賄遷。?

桑之未落,其葉沃若。于嗟鳩兮,無食桑葚!于嗟女兮,無與士耽!士之耽兮,猶可說也。女之耽兮,不可說也。 桑之落矣,其黃而隕。自我徂爾,三歲食貧。淇水湯湯,漸車帷裳。女也不爽,士貳其行。士也罔極,二三其德。?

三歲為婦,靡室勞矣;夙興夜寐,靡有朝矣。言既遂矣,至于暴矣。兄弟不知,咥其笑矣。靜言思之,躬自悼矣。 及爾偕老,老使我怨。淇則有岸,隰則有泮??偨侵纾孕﹃剃?。信誓旦旦,不思其反。反是不思,亦已焉哉!

There was a man who looked faithful with rolls of silk in his arms. Actually, he?did not?really come to exchange the silk, but to find a chance to discuss our future. I walked with him,?crossing Qishui?to Dunqiu. Though, I did not?want to delay the agreed date?and refuse to marry, but?a good matchmaker was not found. Please do not get angry, let the?marriage be in autumn. I climbed up the collapsed wall and?stared at Fuguan, where he lived?in. If it was unable to see,?I cried, and the?tears fell down.?If it was able to sight,?I smiled and spoke to myself. When I?went?to?ask the god, the divinated result?was not unlucky. Please come and bring?a?carriage, I will take?my?dowry away.?

When the leaves of mulberry tree do?not drop,?they?are as shiny as water. Oh those turtledoves, do not be greedy for mulberries. Hey young girls, do not indulge with men. Men?can come off.?Women?can not get rid of. When the leaves of mulberry tree do drop, they are withered and yellow. Since I got married, I?endured a poor life for many years. Qishui lifted waves, and the water sprayed?the curtains wet, which was on?the carriage. I did not anything wrong, but his behavior was inconsistent. The morality?of him?may?not set standard, and his promises?changed repeatedly.

After entering into marriage for many?years, I did innumerable?housework. For getting up early and going to bed late, the days?cannot be calculated. Maybe his?wish was fulfilled, he gradually became violent towards me. Brothers did not know what happened to me, they laughed?when we?met. Everytime I calm?down and think carefully, I can only?be sad alone. We had an appointment to live together until old age, but now it?made me resentful. Though Qishui?is surging, it has?the shore, and the mire is wide,?it?ends somewhere. Thinking back to how happy we?were?during?the childhood?and how?tender we were talking and laughing. When the?oath of each other?was spoken, I did not?wonder he will break it. Please do not?memorize,?it is?over!
