洪水横流四海饥,教民稼穑务三时。
后王欲识艰难业,读取豳风七月诗。
洪水横流四海饥,教民稼穑务三时。
后王欲识艰难业,读取豳风七月诗。
洪水泛滥,天下饥荒,
他教导百姓农耕,致力于春、夏、秋三季的农事。
后世的君王若想了解那创业的艰难功业,
就应去诵读《诗经·豳风》中的《七月》这首诗。
Floodwaters raged across the land, and famine plagued the seas;
He taught the people farming, toiling through the seasons three.
If later kings would know the hardship of that founding deed,
They should read the "Bin Wind" ode, the "Seventh Month" to heed.
农耕文明的治理智慧,奠定华夏生存根基。
描绘洪水肆虐、民生饥馑,后稷教民农耕以救时艰。
本诗为七言绝句,押平声韵。
