"山有漆,隰有栗。 子有酒食,何不日鼓瑟。 且以喜樂,且以永日。 宛其死矣,他人入室。"

There grows a gum-tree on the hill, And by the mere a chestnut-tree. You have wine and food, why do you forget Sometimes to play your lute, Sometimes to laugh and sing, Sometimes to steal new playtime from the night? Shall it be so till you are dead And others have your house? — trans. Arthur Waley
