Song of Five Sons: Remind people to abide by morality and do good deeds

五子之歌：提醒人们要遵守道德、行善积德

The Song of the Five Sons reminds people that only by abiding by morality and doing good deeds can we have a good fate and a good fortune.

----Zhuge Changqing

There are many people in the world.

People come and go, and their destinies are different.

In the theater of life:

Some people do good deeds and accumulate virtue, while others do evil deeds;

Some people are worried and depressed, while others are happy and happy.

Some are industrious and thrifty, while others are extravagant.

Some people promote the law and benefit the life, and some people abide by morality

Different situations lead to different destinies.

Why is the fate of life different?

Zhuge Changqing studied the traditional culture of traditional Chinese culture and the wisdom of ancient and modern sages. He believed that the key is:

It depends on whether the person abides by morality and does good deeds.

If people abide by morality, heaven and earth will protect them.

If people do good deeds and accumulate virtue, they will have great rewards.

In the article "Merit>Crime=the Beginning of Good Destiny" on the study of traditional Chinese culture, Zhuge Changqing once pointed out that a person's good fate is like a balloon----

Good karma is like balloon gas. Crime is like a big stone.

Only when the energy of the balloon gas is greater than the weight of the stone can the balloon fly.

Only when the merit of doing good and accumulating virtue is greater than the sin, will the fate turn around.

This is true of a person, family, society and country.

Anyone who violates morality and commits many evils must be punished.

In Xia Shu in Shang Shu, there is a song called Song of Five Sons, which shows the philosophy of abiding by morality and doing good deeds.

The Song of the Five Sons is a sigh and reflection on the demise of China's earliest emperor, reminding people to abide by morality, do good deeds and accumulate virtue, reflecting China's earliest and most primitive political thought, that is, "the people are the foundation of the country, and the foundation is solid and peaceful".

According to this allusion, the sage and hermit "Tong Guzi" of the Tang Dynasty adapted a song "Song of the Five Sons" to remind people that "Tong Guzi" sang around on a green ox, which was moving.

"Qi", the son of "Dayu", was the first king of the Xia Dynasty, which formally established a dynasty in Chinese history, and began the imperial era of "father died and son succeeded".

However, "Taikang", the first son to inherit the throne, did not abide by morality. Taikang was greedy for pleasure and did not return from hunting for a long time, which led to the disgust of the people. The capital of the country was occupied by Hou Yi.

Taikang's five younger brothers and mother were rushed to the Luohe River and wrote "Song of the Five Sons" after Dayu's admonition, expressing five regrets.

1、 Original text and translation content of Song of Five Sons

Zhuge Changqing: The Song of the Five Sons, as a moral warning article, is recorded in Shang Shu. Xia Shu.

1. Original text of "Song of Five Sons":

Taikang lost its country, and the five brothers of Kundi had to write "Song of Five Sons" in Luorui.

Taikang's corpse position destroyed Jue De with ease and relaxation, and the Li people lived in Xian Er. It was a wandering and unrestrained place. It was only on the surface of Youluo, and it could not be reversed in ten days. There was a poor Hou Yi who was far away from the river because of his people's forbearance. Five of his younger brothers, Jue's brother, followed his mother and invented Rui in Luo. The five sons complained bitterly about the Great Yu's precepts.

One of them said, "The emperor has a precept that the people can approach and not descend. The people are the foundation of the country, and the country is solid and peaceful. We should regard the world's fools and fools as one who can win, and one who can lose three things. Is the blame in the light of the light, and the failure to see is the plan. We should give the people a sign of fear, and feel as if they can control the six horses. How can we be disrespectful to be the superior?"

The second said, "There is a shortage of colors inside and birds outside. The wine is sweet, the sound is sweet, and the walls are carved. One of them will not die."

The third said, "Only Tao Tang has this hope. Today, we have lost the Jue Road and disordered its outline, which is... the end."

The fourth said, "It is clear that our ancestors are the king of all nations. There are laws and regulations that will benefit the descendants of Jue. There are laws and regulations that will protect the people of Jue. There are laws and regulations that will protect the people of Jue. There are laws and regulations that will protect the people of Jue. There are laws and regulations that will protect the people of Jue. There are laws and regulations that will protect the people of Ju

The fifth said, "Wo hoo hoo gui? I'm sorry for you. The ten thousand surnames are Qiu yu, and I'm going to depend on you. I'm depressed about you, and I'm ashamed of you. I'm not careful about you, but I'm sorry."

2. Translation of Song of Five Sons:

Taikang is in a position of honor without governing, and likes peace and happiness, and loses the monarch's virtue. All the people have two minds; Even Panle did not control his hunting. He went to the south of Luoshui to hunt and didn't come back for a hundred days. Yi, the monarch of a poor country, resisted Taikang in Hebei because the people could not bear it, and refused to let him return home. Five of Taikang's younger brothers, who served their mother, followed Taikang and waited for him in Luoshui Bay. At this time, the five people all complained about Taikang, so they wrote songs and poems about Dayu's teachings.

One of the songs said, "The great ancestors had a clear lesson that the people can be close to but not despised; the people are the foundation of the country, and the country is secure. I think all the people in the world, fools and women, can win against me. One person has made mistakes many times, so should we wait for it to become clear? We should look into the time when it has not yet formed. I govern the Zhaomin, and fear like driving six horses with a bad rope. How can a monarch be disrespectful and not afraid?"

The second one said, "The teachings of the king of Yu are so clear, but you are infatuated with women inside, and you hunt and fly outside; you like drinking and listening to music, and the high building and the main hall are carved with palace walls. As long as there is one of these things, no one will die."

The third one said, "The Yao Emperor of the Tao Tang family once occupied Jizhou. Now he abandoned his rule and disordered his political platform. It was himself that led to his demise!"

The fourth one said, "My brilliant grandfather is the king of all countries. There are laws and regulations, which are passed on to his descendants. Levy and measurement are average, and the royal treasury is abundant. Now abandon his tradition, cut off the sacrifice and endanger the clan!"

The fifth one said, "Alas! Where can I return? My mood is sad! All the surnames hate us. Who will we rely on? My heart is depressed, and my face is ashamed. I am not willing to be cautious about Zude. Even if I repent, how can I be saved?"

2、 Song of the Five Sons, summarized and adapted by the sage and hermit "Tongguzi" in the Tang Dynasty

Zhuge Changqing: "Tongguzi", a sage and hermit of the Tang Dynasty, refers to the contemporary "Guiguzi". According to the "Song of the Five Sons" recorded in Shangshu. Xiashu, it is composed into a poem and sung everywhere to alert people. We are grateful to these ancient and modern sages, who have made great efforts to inherit the traditional Chinese culture.

The following is the song of five sons written by the sage and hermit "Tongguzi" of the Tang Dynasty:

Song of Five Sons, Tang Dynasty, Tongguzi

one

A nation can only be stable and tranquil. When it comes to it, it must always overcome the shock of decay.

Why didn't you come back in ten days? The evil spirit called Yan soldiers from then on.

two

Wine, lust, sound and bird call are everywhere, and the lofty house is carved with walls.

Those who are kings today and in ancient times will not perish before or because of this.

three

Only Tao and Tang had hope, and the teenagers were puzzled.

Now, it is the first time that you have a disorderly agenda.

four

It is clear that our ancestors, the rulers of all nations, will show their descendants the code.

After the collapse of Taikang, the emperor refused to sacrifice to destroy its door.

five

The enemies of thousands of surnames have no basis. How could Yan Hou ever be shy.

Now that the five sons have lost their state of singing, it is hard to recall a past event.

《五子之歌》提醒人们，遵守道德、行善积德，才有好命运、才有福报。

---- 诸葛长青

  大千世界，芸芸众生。

  人来人往，命运不同。

  在人生的大剧场里：

  有人行善积德，有人心恶行恶；

  有人烦恼郁闷，有人开心快乐。

  有人勤俭节约，有人狂妄挥霍。

  有人弘法利生，有人遵守道德.....

  人生处境不同，命运不同。

  人生命运为何不同？

  诸葛长青研究国学传统文化、研究古今圣贤智慧认为，关键就是：

  就在这个人是否遵守道德、是否行善积德。

  人若遵守道德，必有天地护佑。

  人若行善积德，必有极大福报。

   在国学传统文化研究文章《功德>罪业=好命运的开始》中，诸葛长青曾经指出，一个人的好命运，好像一个气球----

  善业，好像气球的气体。罪业，好像一块大石头。

  只有气球气体能量大于石头重量，气球才能飞起来。

  只有行善积德的功德大于罪业，命运转机才会出现。

  一个人如此，家庭如此，社会如此，国家也是如此。

  谁若违背道德，作恶多端，必然要受惩罚。

   《尚书》中的《夏书》里，有一首《五子之歌》，对遵守道德、行善积德做了打动人心的哲学展示。

  《五子之歌》是对中国最早的帝王亡国的叹息、反思，提醒人们要遵守道德、行善积德，体现了中国最早、最原始的政治思想，即“民惟邦本，本固邦宁”。

  唐朝圣贤隐士“同谷子”根据这个典故，改编成一首的《五子之歌》为了提醒人心，“同谷子”骑着青牛，四处演唱，令人感动。

  “大禹”的儿子“启”，是中国历史上正式建立朝代的夏朝的第一个国王，开始了“父死子继”的帝制时代。

  然而第一个继承皇位的儿子“太康”，就因为没有遵守道德，太康贪图享乐，在外打猎长期不归，导致老百姓反感。国都被后羿侵占。

  太康的五个弟弟和母亲被赶到洛河边，追述大禹的告诫而作《五子之歌》，表达了五个悔意。

   一、《五子之歌》原文及翻译内容

　　诸葛长青：《五子之歌》作为道德警醒文章，记录在《尚书.夏书》里。

  1.《五子之歌》原文：

  太康失邦，昆弟五人须于洛汭，作《五子之歌》。

　　太康尸位，以逸豫灭厥德，黎民咸贰，乃盘游无度，畋于有洛之表，十旬弗反。有穷后羿因民弗忍，距于河，厥弟五人御其母以从，徯于洛之汭。五子咸怨，述大禹之戒以作歌。

　　其一曰：「皇祖有训，民可近，不可下，民惟邦本，本固邦宁。予视天下愚夫愚妇一能胜予，一人三失，怨岂在明，不见是图。予临兆民，懔乎若朽索之驭六马，为人上者，奈何不敬？」

　　其二曰：「训有之，内作色荒，外作禽荒。甘酒嗜音，峻宇雕墙。有一于此，未或不亡。」

　　其三曰：「惟彼陶唐，有此冀方。今失厥道，乱其纪纲，乃厎灭亡。」

　　其四曰：「明明我祖，万邦之君。有典有则，贻厥子孙。关石和钧，王府则有。荒坠厥绪，覆宗绝祀！」

　　其五曰：「呜呼曷归？予怀之悲。万姓仇予，予将畴依？郁陶乎予心，颜厚有忸怩。弗慎厥德，虽悔可追？」

   2.《五子之歌》译文：

  太康处在尊位而不理事，又喜好安乐，丧失君德，众民都怀着二心；竟至盘乐游猎没有节制，到洛水的南面打猎，百天还不回来。有穷国的君主羿，因人民不能忍受，在河北抵御太康，不让他回国。太康的弟弟五人，侍奉他们的母亲跟随太康，在洛水湾等待他。这时五人都埋怨太康，因此叙述大禹的教导而写了歌诗。

　　其中一首说：“伟大的祖先曾有明训，人民可以亲近而不可看轻；人民是国家的根本，根本牢固，国家就安宁。我看天下的人，愚夫愚妇都能对我取胜。一人多次失误，考察民怨难道要等它显明？应当考察它还未形成之时。我治理兆民，恐惧得像用坏索子驾着六匹马；做君主的人怎么能不敬不怕？”

　　其中第二首说：“禹王的教诲这样昭彰，可你在内迷恋女色，在外游猎翱翔；喜欢喝酒和爱听音乐，高高建筑大殿又雕饰宫墙。这些事只要有一桩，就没有人不灭亡。”

　　其中第三首说：“那陶唐氏的尧皇帝，曾经据有冀州这地方。现在废弃他的治道，紊乱他的政纲。就是自己导致灭亡！”

　　其中第四首说：“我的辉煌的祖父，是万国的大君。有典章有法度，传给他的子孙。征赋和计量平均，王家府库丰殷。现在废弃他的传统，就断绝祭祀又危及宗亲！”

　　其中第五首说：“唉！哪里可以回归？我的心情伤悲！万姓都仇恨我们，我们将依靠谁？我的心思郁闷，我的颜面惭愧。不愿慎行祖德，即使改悔又岂可挽回？”

  二、唐朝圣贤隐士“同谷子”总结概括改编的《五子之歌》

  诸葛长青：唐朝圣贤隐士“同谷子”，以当代“鬼谷子”自喻，根据《尚书.夏书》记载的《五子之歌》，编成诗歌，四处演唱，警醒人心。我们感恩这些古今圣贤，他们为中国国学传统文化传承，付出了巨大心血。

  以下是唐朝圣贤隐士“同谷子”写的五子之歌：

  《五子之歌》 唐·同谷子

一

邦惟固本自安宁，临下常须驭朽惊。

何事十旬游不返，祸胎从此召殷兵。

二

酒色声禽号四荒，那堪峻宇又雕墙。

静思今古为君者，未或因兹不灭亡。

三

唯彼陶唐有冀方，少年都不解思量。

如今算得当时事，首为盘游乱纪纲。

四

明明我祖万邦君，典则贻将示子孙。

惆怅太康荒坠后，覆宗绝祀灭其门。

五

仇雠万姓遂无依，颜厚何曾解忸怩。

五子既歌邦已失，一场前事悔难追。
