采蘋 诗经

于以采蘋?南涧之滨。 于以采藻?于彼行潦。 于以盛之?维筐及筥。 于以湘之?维錡及釜。 于以奠之?宗室牖下。 谁其尸之?有齐季女。

Gathering water chestnuts (literal translation)

Where do we gather water chestnuts? On the southern banks of the stream. Where do we gathering algae? In the shallows of the stream. What do we put them in? In baskets and hampers. What do we hold them in? In jars and pots. Where do we offer them as a sacrifice? Beneath the window of the ancestral hall. Who will officiate? The youngest daughter, waiting to marry.
