My son, keep my words and keep my commands in your heart.

Follow my orders and you will survive. Conservating my rules is like guarding the pupils in my eyes.

Tie it on your finger, engrave it on your heart plate.

To wisdom, you are my sister. Call intelligence your relative.

He will keep you away from prostitutes and foreign women who flatter you.

I once looked out from the window of my house, between my window frames.

Among the foolish, among the young men, there is clearly an ignorant young man,

Passing through the street, approaching the entrance of the lewd woman’s alley, and heading straight towards the road leading to her home,

At dusk, or at night, or in the middle of the night, or in the darkness,

Look, a woman came to meet him, dressed like a prostitute with deceitful thoughts.

This woman is noisy and unruly, unable to stop at home.

Sometimes in the market, sometimes in a wide area, or crouching at various alleys.

He grabbed the young man and kissed him, speaking shamelessly to him,

The Ping An Festival is here with me. I only fulfilled my wish today.

Therefore, I came out to greet you and earnestly requested to see your face, and coincidentally met you.

I have spread my bed with embroidered blankets and patterned cloth woven with Egyptian thread.

I perfumed my bed with myrrh, agarwood, and cinnamon.

Come, we can fully enjoy love until morning. We can love and enjoy each other.

Because my husband is not at home, he is traveling long distances.

He held a silver bag in his hand. I won’t go home until the moon shines.

The lewd woman lured him to follow with many clever words, and forced him to walk with flattery.

The young man immediately followed her, like an ox heading towards the land of slaughter, or like a foolish man carrying chains to receive punishment.

Waiting for the arrow to pierce through his liver is like a bird rushing into a net, unaware that it is losing its own life.

Children, now listen to me and pay attention to the words of my mouth.

Your heart should not lean towards the path of a lewd woman. Don’t get lost in her path.

Because many of them fell due to her injuries. Many were killed by her.

Her home is on the path of the underworld, descending to the palace of death.
