51. 蝃蝀 - Di Dong

蝃蝀在東、莫之敢指。
女子有行、遠父母兄弟。

There is a rainbow in the east,
And no one dares to point to it.
When a girl goes away [from her home],
She separates from her parents and brothers.

朝隮于西、崇朝其雨。
女子有行、遠兄弟父母。

In the morning [a rainbow] rises in the west,
And [only] during the morning is there rain.
When a girl goes away [from her home],
She separates from her brothers and parents.

乃如之人也、懷昏姻也。
大無信也、不知命也。

This person
Has her heart only on being married.
Greatly is she untrue to herself,
And does not recognize [the law of] her lot.
