三湘棹歌（三首选一）

chǔ楚shuǐ水rù入dòng洞tíng庭zhě者sān三：yuē曰zhēng蒸xiāng湘，yuē曰zī资xiāng湘，yuē曰yuán沅xiāng湘；gù故yǒu有“sān三xiāng湘”zhī之míng名。dòng洞tíng庭jí即xiāng湘shuǐ水zhī之wěi尾，gù故jūn君shān山yuē曰xiāng湘shān山yě也。zī资xiāng湘yì亦míng名xiāo潇xiāng湘，jīn今zī资jiāng江fā发yuán源wǔ武gāng冈shàng上yóu游zhī之fū夫yí夷shuǐ水，tǔ土rén人shàng尚yuē曰xiāo潇xī溪，qí其dì地yuē曰xiāo萧dì地。jiàn见《bǎo宝qìng庆fǔ府zhì志》。《shuǐ水jīng经zhù注》bù不yán言xiāo潇shuǐ水，ér而liǔ柳zōng宗yuán元bié别zhǐ指yǒng永zhōu州yì一shuǐ水wèi为xiāo潇，suì遂yǐ以zhēng蒸xiāng湘wèi为xiāo潇xiāng湘，ér而sān三xiāng湘jǐn仅cún存qí其èr二yǐ矣。yǔ予shēng生zhǎng长sān三xiāng湘，sù溯huí洄yún云shuǐ水，yuán爰wèi为zhào棹gē歌sān三zhāng章，yǐ以zhèng正qí其shī失，qiě且jì寄hú湖shān山xiāng乡guó国zhī之sī思。
