Third Day of the Third Month Go to the Grave of Zhong Xiang, Followed His Transitory and Fractured Life to Obtain These Ten Poems: No. 6

 

三 日 三 月 上 忠 襄 坟 因 之 行 散 得 十 绝 句
女 唱 儿 歌 去 踏 青
阿 婆 笑 语 伴 渠 行。
只 亏 郎 罢 忧 轻 杀
櫑 子 双 担 挈 酒 瓶。
San Yue San Ri Shang Zhong Xiang Fen Yi Zhi Xing San De Shi Jue Ju

Nu chang er ge qu ta qing
E po xiao you ban qu xing.
Zhi kui lang ba you qing sha
Lei zi shuang dan qie jiu ping.

Third Day of the Third Month Go to the Grave of Zhong Xiang, Followed His Transitory and Fractured Life to Obtain These Ten Poems: No. 6

Daughters singing their songs go out for a walk
Mothers laugh at their words, stay close to them for safety.
Lone government official father carrying all of the snacks
His pole carries the wine bottles and food containers.
