唐淮源
Di Zi Gui or Standards for Being a Good Student and Child is a book that was taught by Chinese saints and sages of the ancient past. The book first teaches us how to be fealty to our parents, and how to be respectful and loving to our siblings. It then teaches us how to be cautious with all people, matters, and objects in our daily lives; how to be a trust worthy person; and to believe in the teachings of the ancient saints and sages.
《弟子规》是中国古圣先贤的教诲。首先它教导我们应该怎么孝顺父母和尊重敬爱我们的兄弟妹。然后它教我们在日常生活中，对所有人、事、物，要如何保持小心谨慎，要我们做一个有信用的人，教我们要相信古圣先贤的教诲。

Furthermore, it teaches us to love all equally, and to be close to and learn from people of virtue and compassion. Only when have accomplished all the above can we then study further and learn literature and art to improve the quality of our cultural and spiritual lives.
接着它教导我们应该要平等地去爱一切众生，要亲近仁慈、有德行的人，向他们学习我们必须先把自己本份内的责任都做到了，如还有剩余的时间和精力，才可以更进一步学习研究文学艺术，来提升自己的精神生活品质。

出必告 反必面 居有常 业无变
Before going out, I must tell my parents where I are going. For parents are always concerned about their children.

I will persist in whatever I do and will not change my aspirations at will.
出门前我应该先禀告父母，让他们知道我去了哪里，因为父母时刻都在为子女们操心。回家后，我应该先拜见父母，让他们知道我回来了，让父母安心。居住的地方要固定，生活要有规律，做事要有恒心，不要随意更改自己的志向。
