Fat and strong , fat and strong ,
Fat and strong , are the chestnut teams .
Early and late are the [officers] in the court ,
In the court , discriminating and intelligent .
[They are as] a flock of egrets on the wing ,
Of egrets anon lighting on the ground .
The drums emit their deep sound ;
They drink to the full and then dance ;—
Thus rejoicing together .
