本詩集從中國古代第一部詩歌總集《詩經》裡挑選了四十四篇反映愛情的詩歌，加以注釋和白話翻譯，推薦給古典詩歌愛好者欣賞和收藏。

這些作品出於距今大約二千六百年到三千一百年之間，但翻開詩歌的每一頁，愛情的魔力仿佛能穿越時空讓如今的我們感動唏噓不已，正如它們曾感動和陶冶過無數的一代代先人那樣。

久遠的先人的愛情觀是那樣的質樸和真誠，又不乏熾熱的向往、執着和勇敢。他們的文字表達十分簡約而又優美無比，給我們留下了許多膾炙人口的千古絶唱。那是因爲它們是真情的流露，來源於生活點點滴滴的體驗和感受，絶非做作的文字和感

情的遊戲。

A selection of 44 poems featuring love from the "Book of Songs", the first collection of poetry from ancient China, is presented in this book, annotated and translated into vernacular, and recommended to lovers of classical poetry.

We turn to every page of these poems today and feel the magic of love travel through time and space, just as they have touched and nurtured countless generations of ancestors, even though they were written between 2,600 and 3,100 years ago.

It is evident that long-standing ancestors believe in love in its most straightforward and sincere form, and there is a great deal of conviction, persistence, and bravery in how they think about it. Throughout the ages, their writings left us with many well-known masterpieces. That's because they are the revelation of true feelings derived from the experience and feelings of life and are by no means a game of contrived words and emotions.
