《乐府·咄唶歌》 佚名
枣下何攒攒!
荣华各有时。
枣欲初赤时，
人从四边来。
枣适今日赐，
谁当仰视之！
Song of the Dates
Look at the crowd who pick the dates!
Each fruit has spent its prime of life.
When dates are on the way to ripe,
The people rush to them in strife.
When dates are gone in autumn breeze,
No one will ever raise their eyes at trees!
