《詩經(jīng)》·《陳風》·《株林》

胡為乎株林？從夏南。

匪適株林，從夏南。

駕我乘馬，說于株野。

乘我乘駒，朝食于株。

Choo lin

What does he in Choo-lin?

He is going after Hёa Nan.

He is not going to Choo-lin;

He is going after Hёa Nan.

‘Yoke for me my team of horses;

I will rest in the country about Choo.

I will drive my team of colts,

And breakfast at Choo.'

（James Legge 譯）

In Zhu-lin

“How do you manage to be in Zhu-lin?”

“We are the escort of Xia Nan.

He has come to Zhu-lin;

We are the escort of Xia Nan.

We drove our four horses;

We did not pause till the outskirts of Zhu.

We drove our four colts,

And were in time for breakfast at Zhu.”

（Arthur Waley 譯）

Chu lin

What shall I do in Chu-lin?

I will follow Hia Nan;

it is not that I go to Chu-lin:

I will follow Hia Nan.

I will yoke my four-team of horses,

and halt in the grounds of Chu;

I will drive my four-team of colts,

and have my morning meal in Chu.

（Bernhard Karlgren 譯）
