Pre-Qin Dynasty: Anonymous
Vole, vole, don't eat my millet! I have served you hard for years, but you don't care about me. Vowed to get rid of you and go to a happy land. That promised land, that promised land, is my good place!
Vole, vole, don't eat my wheat! I have served you hard for many years, but you are not kind to me. Swear to get rid of you and enjoy the state. That country, that country of music, is my good place!
Rat, vole, don't eat my seedlings! After years of hard work, you don't want me! I vowed to get rid of you and go to the suburbs to laugh. That happy suburb, that happy suburb, who is still lamenting the long cry!
Translation:
Vole, vole, don't eat my millet! After all these years of hard work, you don't take care of me. I swear to get rid of you and go to the promised land to have happiness. That promised land, that promised land, is my good place!
Vole, vole, don't eat my wheat! After all these years of hard work, you don't give me preferential treatment. I swear to get rid of you and go to that happy country to find love. That music country, that music country, is my good place!
Vole, vole, don't eat my seedlings! I have worked hard to serve you for many years, but you have not comforted me! Swear to get rid of you and have fun there. That music suburb, that music suburb, who will lament that long call sign!

Creative background:
In slave society, escape is the main form of slave resistance, and there are records of "losing people" and "losing people" in Oracle Bone Inscriptions of Yin Shang Dynasty. During the Spring and Autumn Period from the Western Zhou Dynasty to the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, with the decline of slavery, slaves developed from fleeing to mass struggle. For example, there is a "thief of Zheng" in Zuo Zhuan, and there is the resistance of the builder Chen. The poem "Storytelling" came into being under this historical background.
