– The Book of Odes
The oldest collection of Chinese poetry, more than three hundred songs, odes and hymns. Tr. Legge (en) and Granet (fr, incomplete).
Shijing I. 12. (136)
How gay and dissipated you are,
There on the top of Wanqiu !
You are full of kindly affection indeed,
But you have nothing to make you looked up to !
How your blows on the drum resound,
At the foot of Wanqiu !
Be it winter, be it summer,
You are holding your egret's feather !
How you beat your earthen vessel,
On the way to Wanqiu !
Be it winter, be it summer,
You are holding your egret-fan !
Legge 136
Ô vous qui allez vous ébattre
au sommet du tertre Yuan,
Quelle animation est la vôtre !
ce n'est pas un spectacle à voir !
Au son des tambours que l'on frappe
au-dessous du tertre Yuan,
Qu'importe, hiver ! été, qu'importe !
vous tenez des plumes d'aigrette !
Au son des tambourins d'argile,
sur le chemin du tertre Yuan,
Qu'importe, hiver ! été, qu'importe !
vous tenez l'éventail d'aigrette !
Granet LXII.
