国风·唐风·采苓

采苓采苓，首阳之巅。人之为言，苟亦无信。舍旃舍旃，苟亦无然。人之为言，胡得焉？采苦采苦，首阳之下。人之为言，苟亦无与。舍旃舍旃，苟亦无然。人之为言，胡得焉？采葑采葑，首阳之东。人之为言，苟亦无从。舍旃舍旃，苟亦无然。人之为言，胡得焉？
Rumor
Could the sweet water plant be found
On the top of the mountain high?
The rumor going round
If not believed can't fly.

Put it aside, put it aside
So that it can't prevail.
The rumor spreading far and wide
Will be of no avail.

Could bitter water plant be found
At the foot of the mountain high?
The rumor going round
Is what we should deny.
Put it aside, put it aside
So that it can't prevail.
The rumor spreading far and wide
Will be of no avail.

Could water plants be found
East of the mountain high?
The rumor going round,
If disregarded, will die.

Put it aside,put it aside
So that it can't prevail.
The rumor spreading far and wide
Will be of no avail.
