诗经国风之周南中英文

　　9. 漢廣 han guang

　　南有喬木、不可休息。

　　漢有游女、不可求思。

　　漢之廣矣、不可泳思。

　　江之永矣、不可方思。

　　翹翹錯薪、言刈其楚。

　　之子于歸、言秣其馬。

　　漢之廣矣、不可泳思。

　　江之永矣、不可方思。

　　翹翹錯薪、言刈其蔞 。

　　之子于歸、言秣其駒 。

　　漢之廣矣、不可泳思 。

　　江之永矣、不可方思 。

　　in the south rise the trees without branches ,

　　affording no shelter .

　　by the han are girls rambling about ,

　　but it is vain to solicit them .

　　the breath of the han

　　cannot be dived across ;

　　the length of the jiang

　　cannot be navigated with a raft .

　　many are the bundles of firewood ;

　　i would cut down the thorns [to form more] .

　　those girls that are going to their future home , --

　　i would feed their horses .

　　the breadth of the han

　　cannot be dived across ;

　　the length of the jiang ,

　　cannot be navigated with a raft .

　　many are the bundles of firewood ;

　　i would cut down the southern wood [to form more] .

　　those girls that are going to their future home , --

　　i would feed their colts .

　　the breadth of the han

　　cannot be dived across ;

　　the length of the jiang

　　cannot be navigated with a raft .
