古詩：天作 中英對照

Heaven made the lofty hill ，

And king Da brought [the country about] it under cultivation .

He made the commencement with it ，

And king Wen tranquilly [carried on the work] ，

[Till] that rugged [mount] Qi ，

Had level roads leading to it .

May their descendants ever preserve it ！

天作高山、大王荒之。

彼作矣、文王康之。

彼徂矣岐、有夷之行、子孫保之。
