歌曲《豈曰無衣》“Who Says There Is No Garment?”/"No Clothes" 紀録片《風雲戰國之列國》主題曲-作曲:張鎰麟，演唱:汤非

國風‧秦‧無衣 豈曰無衣？與子同袍。王于興師，脩我戈矛，與子同仇。 豈曰無衣？與子同澤。王于興師，脩我矛戟，與子偕作。 豈曰無衣？與子同裳。王于興師，脩我甲兵，與子偕行。 Who says we have no clothes? With you I share the same robe. The King has raised his hosts, Let us sharpen our halberds and spears, Facing the same foe with you by my side! Who says we have no clothes? With you I share the same shirt. The King has raised his hosts, Let us ready our lances and pole-arms, Together we engage in the same enterprise! Who says we have no clothes? With you I wear the same skirt of war. The King has raised his hosts, Let us don our armor, gird our weapons, Together we march forth, together we fight! --- Introduction to “Wú Yī (No Clothes)” Background Wú Yī (無衣) is a poem from the Guó Fēng (“Airs of the States”) section of the Shījīng (《詩經》 / “Book of Odes” or “Book of Songs”), specifically from the section attributed to the state of Qin. The Shījīng is a foundational anthology of early Chinese poetry, often dated roughly from the 11th to the 7th centuries BCE (during the early Zhou period). These “Airs of the States” poems are commonly thought to reflect folk traditions, communal values, and the daily life, beliefs, and sometimes political or martial sentiments of ordinary people or local communities. Themes and Significance The poem expresses unity, loyalty, and shared sacrifice. If someone says “we have no clothes,” the speaker answers by saying “we will share what clothes we have / share the same robe / same undershirt / same armor,” etc. It emphasizes that in times of crisis—when the king raises an army—people are willing to equip themselves and go together, even if resources are limited. It also reflects martial readiness (repairing spears, pole-arms, armor) and mutual companionship / solidarity in the face of a common threat. The repeated rhetorical question “How can you say we have no clothes?” is a powerful device: it transforms lack or hardship into a shared cause, a motivator for collective action. It’s both defiant and inclusive. Structure and Style The poem is short and highly repetitive / parallel in structure. Key phrases are repeated with slight variation (“with you I share the same robe / shirt / dress / undergarment,” etc.) and each stanza ends with action: preparing weapons, marching, going into battle together. The imagery is simple but vivid — clothing, weapons, armor. These concrete images make the abstract values (solidarity, loyalty, courage) very tangible. Cultural / Historical Resonance Poems like Wú Yī have often been interpreted as evidence that in ancient China there were strong communal / state-oriented values: people willing to sacrifice personal comfort for the greater good. Over centuries, Wú Yī has been cited as an example of patriotic or martial inspiration, especially in periods when national unity or resistance was being emphasized
