清人

清人在彭。
駟介旁旁。
二矛重英。
河上乎翱翔。
清人在消。
駟介麃麃。
二矛重喬。
河上乎逍遙。
清人在軸。
駟介陶陶。
左旋右抽。
中軍作好。

QING REN

The men of Qing are in Peng;
The chariot with its team in mail ever moves about;
The two spears in it, with their ornaments, rising, one above the other.
So do they roam about the He.
The men of Qing are in Xiao;
The chariot with its team in mail looks martial;
And the two spears in it, with their hooks, rise one above the other.
So do they saunter about by the He.
The men of Qing are in Zhou;
The mailed team of the chariot prance proudly.
[The driver] on the left wheels it about, and [the spearman] on the right brandishes his weapon,
While the general in the middle looks pleased.
