《鸱鹗》是《诗经·豳风》中的一首诗,其作者历史上都说是周公。近世学者对此表示怀疑,然无确凿证据。近来清华简《金縢》的发现,证明《鸱鹗》实非周公所作,而是他东征归来,以此诗遗献成王,略近赋诗言志。用意在于消除君臣间的误解,表明自己公忠为国的心迹,体现出一种高超的政治艺术。
According to reference material, in history it is Zhougong who wrote the poem named "Chixiao" in the chapter "Binfeng" of Shijing. There is no conclusive evidence to justify modern scholars' skeptical theories on the writer. Recently the Bamboo Slips "Jinteng" has proved that actually "Chixiao" isn't written by Zhougong. In fact, he offered the poem to Chengwang to express some of his own thoughts when he returned after conquering the east. What he did is to eliminate the misunderstandings between the monarch and himself and to show his loyalty to the country, which reflected a high lev- el of political art.
