第65章 Community Day

Wang Jia

At the foot of Goose Lake Hill the rice crop was doing well.

The doors of pig-sties were not well secured, (but I wouldn’t tell.)

The Community Day① party broke up as tree shadows② grew.

Each family had to help home a drunkard③ or two.

① Community Day社日。社日是我国古代祭祀社神的日子,也是容桂地区祭拜社神的时节。

② shadown. 影子; 荫;阴暗处; 隐退;掩蔽,庇护

③ drunkardn. 酒鬼;醉汉

社日

王驾

鹅湖山下稻粱肥,

豚栅鸡栖半掩扉。

桑柘影斜春社散,

家家扶得醉人归。
