颂·周颂·闵予小子之什·闵予小子

闵予小子，遭家不造，嬛嬛在疚。於乎皇考，永世克孝。
念兹皇祖，陟降庭止。维予小子，夙夜敬止。
於乎皇王，继序思不忘。
Elegy on King Wu*

Alas! how sad am I!
Over my deceased father I cry.
Lonely, I'm in distress
To lose my father whom gods bless.
Filial all your life long,
You loved grandfather strong
As if he were ever in courtyard.
Fatherless, I am thinking hard
Of you both night and day.
O kings to be remembered for aye!
