古诗：载见 中英对照

载见辟王、曰求厥章。

龙旗阳阳、和铃央央。

鞗革有鸧、休有烈光。

率见昭考、以考以享、以介眉寿。

永言保之、思皇多祜。

烈文辟公、绥以多福、俾缉熙于纯嘏。

They appeared before their sovereign king ，

To seek from him the rules [they were to observe] .

With their dargon-emblazoned banners ， flying bright ，

The bells on them and their front-boards tinkling ，

And with the rings on the ends of the reins glittering ，

Admirable was their majesty ， and splendour .

He led them to appear before his father shrined on the left ，

Where he discharged hisi filial duty ， and presented his offerings ； ——

That he might have granted to him long life ，

And ever preserve [his dignity] .

Great and many are his blessings .

They are the brilliant and accomplished princes .

Who cheer him with his many sources of happiness ，

Enabling him to perpetuate them in their brightness as pure blessing .
