Original text:
Mencius met Liang. Wang Li was on the marsh, herding moose, and said, "Is the sage happy? Mencius said to him: saints have fun, while saints have fun. "Poetry" says:' The Lingtai started, then the camp, and Shu Ren attacked it, but it failed for several days. Don't be anxious from the beginning, the common people will come. Wang Zailing, Rufen Fuyou, Rufen Zhuozhuo, Bai Niao Crane.
Wang is in Lingnuma. He jumps into the fish. King Wen takes people's power as a platform. When people are happy, they call it platform Lingtai, swamp spirit powder, elk, fish and turtle, and they are happy. The ancients enjoyed themselves with the people, so they could enjoy themselves. Tang Shi said:' Time hurts? Give it to the woman and die together. "People want to die with it, although there are birds and beasts in the pool, why enjoy themselves?
Translation:
Mencius visited Liang. Standing by the pond, Liang looked around at the wild geese, elk and other birds and animals, and said, Do sages also enjoy it? Mencius replied: only the wise can enjoy this kind of happiness, and even if the wicked have it, they will not feel happy.
The Book of Songs says: Zhou Wenwang began to build high platforms and deep pools, and all the people came to work. It took only a few days to build it. Zhou Wenwang is also uneasy about the rapid progress of the project, and people are very willing to work for him voluntarily in return for his kindness. In Zhou Wenwang, birds, animals, fish and turtles all live happily in the gardens of Lingkou and Lingbog. People call his platform Lingtai and his pond Lingfen, and everyone likes these deer platforms and fish ponds.
Only when the ancient monarchs shared happiness with the people could they enjoy real happiness. The history book says: Shang Tang asked: Why can't this kind of disaster befall our people? His people said: Because you can bear this disaster with us. People really want to share this disaster with Shang Tang! Even if there are tall houses and gardens and precious birds, animals, fish and turtles, how can one enjoy them alone?
