古詩:執(zhí)競(jìng) 中英對(duì)照

字號(hào):

The arm of king Wu was full of strength ;
    Irresistable was his ardour .
    Greatly illustrious were Cheng and Kang ,
    Kinged by God .
    When we consider how Cheng and Kang ,
    Grandly held all within the four quarters [of the kingdom] ,
    How penetrating was their intelligence !
    The bells and drums sound in harmony ;
    The sounding stones and flutes blend their notes ;
    Abundant blessing is sent down .
    Blessing is sent down in large measure ;
    Careful and exact is all our deportment ;
    We have drunk , and we have eaten , to the full ;
    Our happiness and dignity will be prolonged .

    執(zhí)競(jìng)武王、無競(jìng)維烈。
    不顯成康、上帝是皇。
    自彼成康、奄有四方、斤斤其明。
    鐘鼓喤喤、磬管將將、降福穰穰。
    降福簡(jiǎn)簡(jiǎn)、威儀反反。
    既醉既飽、福祿來反。
