This is Song Yue in The Book of Songs.

Ren Yue Song is an ancient Yue folk song in China in the early Spring and Autumn Period, which used Zhuang and Dong languages. Actually, I remember the pronunciation, and its meaning was translated by the Chu people. The sentence pattern is similar to the Songs of the South, which is said to be the first lyric poem translated by China.

The Yue people's song comes from Liu Xiang's Shuo Yuan (Volume 11: Good Story) in the Han Dynasty. In the thirteenth paragraph, there are Chinese characters to record the pronunciation of the ancient Yue language: "Give Chang Ze weeds and Changzhou to Changzhou."

Ren Yue Song

What a night tonight, roaming in the river.

What day is today? Together with the prince.

I'm ashamed. I don't deserve my humble opinion.

Confused mood can not only satisfy the prince.

There are trees on the mountain, and there are branches on the wood (know). I'm happy if you don't know.

Original story

"At the beginning of the seal, wearing a jade garment, wearing a jade sword, standing above the swimming pool. The doctor was holding a clock hammer, and the county magistrate issued a decree calling: "Who can cross the king? "Dr. Chu Zhuang Xin said after a while, so he made a request and paid his respects. He stood up and said, "I'd like to help you, but can I?" Angry, didn't speak. Zhuang Xin held out his hand and said, "Are you the only one who doesn't know about boating in the new wave? On the boat in Han Qing, Zhang Cui changed to check the tail of rhinoceros. The whole class wore long gowns and knew the sound of bells and drums. After the list was finished, the Vietnamese people hugged and sang, and the song said:' If you abuse grass, you can give it to Changzhou, but Zhou can't give it to Qin.

So, being called as an interpreter, Chu asked, "When is the evening?" ? Where is the middle of the European continent? What day is today? Together with the prince. Good sense of shame, no sense of shame, stubborn heart, know the prince. There are trees in the mountains and branches in the trees. I like you, but you don't know. "Therefore, the gentleman in Hubei repaired his clothes, hugged them, and covered them with embroidered quilts. Gentleman Xi, kissing Wang Chu's mother and brother. The official is your yin, and the Jue is your GUI. The more people in a list, the more you want to have sex. This gentleman is more than a gentleman from Hubei, so I'm not alone on the list. I'm willing to hold your hand. Why not? " Xiang came in holding hands and said, "When I was young, I tried to let my elders know me by color. Never seen such a way to die. From now on, I am willing to accept orders with strength and youth as gifts. "
