双语诗歌翻译|诗经·《国风·召南·摽有梅》

《国风·召南·摽有梅》是周代著名文学作品《诗经》中的诗歌。此诗与《桃夭》，都是反映女子婚嫁的诗篇。《桃夭》充满了对妙龄女郎婚嫁及时的赞美，故诗之情趣欢快；此诗流露出待字女子唯恐青春被耽误的怨思，故诗之情意急迫。

《诗经--国风·召南·摽有梅》

摽有梅，
其实七兮！
求我庶士，
迨其吉兮！

摽有梅，
其实三兮！
求我庶士，
迨其今兮！

摽有梅，
顷筐堲之！
求我庶士，
迨其谓之！

Plop, Fall the Plums

Plop, fall the plums;
Of ten on the tree, seven remain;
Let those who would court me
Come before the lucky day slips by.

Plop, fall the plums;
Of ten on the tree, three remain;
For those who would court me
Now is the time!

Plop, fall the plums;
Place them in flat baskets;
Let those who would court me
Come to the gathering!
