More than one year ago, daughter began to speak.

I taugh her the first lesson is the first poem in 'Poetry', that has published for more than 3000 years.

It's very simple.

关关雎鸠,在河之洲。窈窕淑女,君子好逑。

参差荇菜,左右流之。窈窕淑女,寤寐求之。

求之不得,寤寐思服。悠哉悠哉。辗转反侧。

参差荇菜,左右采之。窈窕淑女,琴瑟友之。

参差荇菜,左右毛之。窈窕淑女。钟鼓乐之。


--A bird is singing on the island in the river. A young man want to get love by a beautiful woman.
--Some grass in water are short, some are high, and water beside them.Whether sleeping or waking up, the man miss the woman.
--But he does'nt get it, he think hard for it.How long the night, he can not sleep in.
--Some grass in water are short, some are high,take it by left hand and right hand.He should play guitar and lute to make friend with her.
--Some grass in water are short, some are high,choose it by left hand and right hand.He should play Zhong and Gu to make her happy.

It has a beauty of sound.

Most Chinese know the poem, and one sentence of it is realy famous
