We must get the services of the eunuch.

If now we do not take our joy,
The time will pass till we are octogenarians.

小しょう戎えびす俴收、五ご楘梁輈。
游ゆう環たまき脅おびえ驅か、陰かげ靷鋈續つづけ、文ぶん茵しとね暢とおる轂こしき、駕が我わが騏馵。
言げん念ねん君子くんし、溫ゆたか其如玉だま。

Xiao Rong:
[There is] his short war carriage; -
With the ridge-like end of its pole, elegantly bound in five places;
With its slip rings and side straps,
And the traces attached by gilt rings to the masked transverse;
With its beautiful mat of tiger's skin, and its long naves;
With its piebalds, and horses with white left feet.
When I think of my husband [thus],
Looking bland and soft as a piece of jade;
Living there in his plank house;
It sends confusion into all the corners of my heart.

四よん牡おす孔あな阜、六ろく轡くつわ在ざい手て、騏駵是ぜ中ちゅう、騧驪是ぜ驂、龍りゅう盾たて之の合ごう、鋈以觼軜。

方かた何なん為ため期き、胡えびす然しか我わが念ねん之の。
Xiao Rong:
His four horses are in very fine condition,
And the six reins are in the hand [of the charioteer].
Piebald, and bay with black mane, are the insides;
Yellow with black mouth, and black, are the outsides;
Side by side are placed the dragon-figured shields;
Gilt are the buckles for the inner reins.
I think of my husband [thus],
Looking so mild in the cities there.
What time can be fixed for his return?
Oh! how I think of him!

3 小しょう戎えびす:
俴駟孔あな羣、厹矛鋈錞、
蒙こうむ伐き有ゆう苑えん、虎とら韔鏤膺、

厭いや厭いや良人りょうじん、秩秩德とく音おん。
Xiao Rong:
His mail-covered team moves in great harmony;
There are the trident spears with their gilt ends;
And the beautiful feather-figured shield;
With the tiger-skin bow-case, and the carved metal ornaments on its front.
The two bows are placed in the case,
Bound with string to their bamboo frames.
I think of my husband,
When I lie down and rise up.
Tranquil and serene is the good man,
With his virtuous fame spread far and near.
