颂·周颂·闵予小子之什·敬之

敬之敬之，天维显思。
命不易哉，无曰高高在上。
陟降厥士，日监在兹。
维予小子，不聪敬止。
日就月将，学有缉熙于光明。
佛时仔肩，示我显德行。

King Cheng's Consultation*

Be reverent， be reverent!
The Heaven's way is evident.
Do not let its favor pass by
Nor say Heaven's remote on high.
It rules over our rise and fall
And daily watches over all."
“I am a young king of our State，
But I will show reverence great.
As sun and moon shine day and night,
I will learn to be fair and bright.
Assist me to fulfill my duty
And show me high virtue and beauty! "
