毖彼泉水，亦流于淇。
有懷于衛，靡日不思。
孌彼諸姬，聊與之謀。
出宿于泲，飲餞于禰。
女子有行，遠父母兄弟。
問我諸姑，遂及伯姊。
出宿于干，飲餞于言。
載脂載舝，還車言邁。
遄臻于衛，不瑕有害。
我思肥泉，茲之永嘆。
思須與漕，我心悠悠。
駕言出游，以寫我憂。

泉水
泉水溪流入淇河，遠離了故鄉衛國。
鄉愁每天加多，思念我的同宗姊妹們，
曾常與她們嬉樂。
曾在泲城住夜，曾在禰城餞別，
女孩子出嫁，遠離父母和兄弟，
辭別了諸姑和大姊。
也曾在干城住宿，也曾在言城餞別，
車軸快些加油，調轉馬頭，
趕回衛國，會有問題嗎？
懷念泉水溪，久久嘆息，
相思須城和曹城，恨悠悠，
只好駕車出遊，解除心中愁。
Spring water flows into the River Qi.
I left my homeland Wei; I miss it every day.
I remember all my cousins, sweet; I talked with them frequently.
We lodged one night at Ji, and toasted farewell at Ni.
When a girl marries, she parts with her parents and brothers;
She says goodbye to her aunts and elder sisters.
We lodged as well at Gan and toasted again at Yan.
I have greased my wagon axle and the wheel pins.
I want to hurry back to Wei – is this wrong?
I am homesick for spring water; I sigh long and deep.
I miss Xu and Cao; their memory swells my sorrow.
I want to ride away on my wagon; I want to forget this misery.
