Filial piety poems

1, bow down to the mother river beam, worrying about nothing. This is a tragic snowy night in Chai Men. It is better to have children than nothing at this time. -from Huang Jingren's "Don't be old" in the Qing Dynasty.

Interpretation of vernacular Chinese: Because I want to make a living in He Liang, I opened the curtain and reluctantly bid farewell to my old mother. Seeing my white-haired mother, I couldn't help crying, and my tears dried up. On this snowy night, it's a pity that we can't be filial to our mother, but we have to hide Chai Men's tragic death. What's the use of adopting a son? I still don't want it.

The thread in the loving mother's hand makes clothes for her wayward son. Before leaving, I had a stitch for fear that my son would come back late and his clothes would be damaged. Who can say that a filial child like the weak can repay his mother's love like the sunshine in spring? -From the Tang Dynasty: Meng Jiao's Wanderer

Interpretation in vernacular Chinese: A loving mother makes clothes for her distant son with a needle and thread in her hand. Before leaving, he sewed a needle tightly for fear that his son would come back late and his clothes would be damaged. Who can say that a child's filial piety as weak as grass can repay the kindness of such a loving mother as Chunhui Puze?

3. I am a loser, and I am a thief. Mourn for my parents and give birth to me. -from the pre-Qin dynasty: the anonymous "Guo E"

Explain in vernacular Chinese: You see that mugwort is high, but it is not mugwort, but mugwort. Pity my parents, it's too hard to raise me!

4, there are three filial piety: great respect for relatives, followed by humiliation, can be raised. -From the Book of Rites in the Spring and Autumn Period

Explain in vernacular Chinese: filial piety can be divided into three levels: the highest level is that parents can be respected in words, actions and hearts, the second level is that parents are not insulted and treated well, and the third level is that they can give them old age and die. Of course, what even you can't do is unfilial.

5, the nature of heaven and earth, artificial expensive; Man's trip is greater than filial piety, and filial piety is greater than strict father. -Excerpt from Chapter 9 of Three Records of Filial Piety in Qin and Han Dynasties.

Explain in vernacular Chinese: among all things in the world, human beings are the noblest. Nothing is more important than filial piety in human behavior. In filial piety, nothing is more important than respecting your father.
