关关雎鸠，在河之洲。

窈窕淑女，君子好逑。

求之不得，寤寐思服。

悠哉悠哉，辗转反侧。

参差荇菜，左右毛之。

窈窕淑女，寤寐有求。

求之不得，寤寐缦服。

悠哉悠哉，辗转反侧。

参差荇菜，左右采之。

英译

The Quince at the River's Bend

Flock the waterfowl,

In the river's bend they roam.

Genteel and graceful dames,

Seeking marriage, worthy mates they crave.

In the water grow the water chestnuts,

Left and right they sway in flow.

Genteel and graceful dames,

Wake and sleep to find a mate.

Yearn for but not attain,

Wake and sleep in torment.

Oh, how vexing it is!

Turning over and over, restless all the night.

In the water grow the water chestnuts,

Left and right they comb with care.

Genteel and graceful dames,

Wake and sleep, harbor a desire.

Yearn for but not attain,

Wake and sleep in measured restraint.

Oh, how vexing it is!

Turning over and over, restless all the night.

In the water grow the water chestnuts,

Left and right they gather with a hand.

Genteel and graceful dames,

Wake and sleep to find a mate.

Yearn for but not attain,

Wake and sleep in torment.

Oh, how vexing it is!

Turning over and over, restless all the night.
