"The deer bleat 'you you' as they feed on the wild plain. We have here noble guests; let us play the zither and blow the sheng. Blow the sheng, beat the time with its reeds; the baskets of offerings are presented. Those who love me will show me the path of virtue." (From the Classic of Poetry; while the poem mentions deer ('lu'), a 'ni' would be their fawn.)
