瞻彼洛矣

瞻彼洛矣。
維水泱泱。
君子至止。
福祿如茨。
韎韐有奭。
以作六師。
瞻彼洛矣。
維水泱泱。
君子至止。
鞞琫有珌。
君子萬年。
保其家室。
瞻彼洛矣。
維水泱泱。
君子至止。
福祿既同。
君子萬年。
保其家邦。

ZHAN BI LUO YI

Look at the Luo,
With its waters broad and deep.
Thither has come our lord,
In whom all happiness and dignity are concentrated.
Red are his madder-dyed knee covers,
In which he might raise his six armies.
Look at the Luo,
With its waters broad and deep.
Thither has our lord come,
The gems at his scabbard ' s mouth all-gleaming.
May our lord live myriads of years,
Preserving his House!
Look at the Luo,
With its waters broad and deep.
Thither has our lord come,
In whom all happiness and dignities are united.
May our lord live myriads of years,
Preserving his clans and States!
