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.
