The original poem is from Guo Fengtang's Cricket. The full text is as follows:
cricket
Cricket is in the hall, very old. I am not happy today, but the sun and the moon will disappear. If you are not healthy, you will think of your home. There is no shortage of happiness, and a good reader is crooked.
Cricket died at the age of five. I'm not happy today. The sun and the moon have come. If you are not healthy, you will think outside of work. Happiness is not lacking, and good people wander.
Crickets are in the hall and the service car is resting. Today is not happy, the sun and the moon compete for glory. There is no great health. I'm worried about my job. There is no shortage of happiness, and good people are rewarded.
The translation is as follows:
It's very cold. The cricket entered the room. A year has passed in a hurry, and it will be the end of the year. If you don't fight in time now, the sun and the moon will fly, and time will not be left. Don't overwork or delay your work. The work is finished and the entertainment is over. Just like a saint, always remind yourself.
It's very cold. Crickets enter the room. A year has passed in a hurry, and it will be the end of the year. If you don't fight in time now, the sun and the moon will fly, and time will not be left. Eat, drink and be merry, and don't miss anything outside of work. Work does not delay, play does not delay, and he is as good at handling affairs as a wise man.
When it is cold, crickets will come into the room and the traffic will stop. If you don't fight in time now, the sun and the moon will fly, and time will not be left. Eat, drink and be merry. Some things concern the country. Work hard and have fun, and live leisurely like a wise man.
Brief introduction of The Book of Songs;
The Book of Songs is the beginning of China's ancient poetry. Formerly known as "Poems" or "Three Hundred Poems", it collected 305 poems from the early years of the Western Zhou Dynasty to the mid-Spring and Autumn Period, among which 6 poems were full of titles, so they were called six poems. The Book of Songs is rich in content, reflecting labor and love, war and corvee, oppression and resistance, customs and marriage, ancestor worship and feasting, and even astronomical phenomena, landforms, animals and plants. It is a mirror of the social life of the Zhou Dynasty and is known as the encyclopedia of life in ancient society.
