陟岵 诗经

陟彼岵兮，瞻望父兮。 父曰嗟，予子行役，夙夜无已。 上慎旃哉，犹来无止。 陟彼屺兮，瞻望母兮。 母曰嗟，予季行役，夙夜无寐。 上慎旃哉，犹来无弃。 陟彼冈兮，瞻望兄兮。 兄曰嗟，予弟行役，夙夜必偕。 上慎旃哉，犹来无死。

Climbing the hill (literal translation)

Climbing that hill, I gaze upon my father. My father says, “Alas, my son is on a long journey, day and night without end. Be careful, for you face many challenges.” Climbing that hill, I gaze upon my mother. My mother says, “Alas, my youngest son is on a long journey, day and night without sleep. Be cautions and diligent; you won’t be abandoned.” Climbing that ridge, I gaze upon my brother. My brother says, “Alas, my younger brother is on a long journey, day and night without company. Be careful; do not die.”
