好士如好色,昔闻今则无。
平生席为门,未识长者车。
旷士慕林谷,羁人辱泥涂。
愿为执鞭役,莫顺下风趋。
去年辱公先,怀刺留寓居。
我往拜其门,𬸚𬸦鸣高梧。
论交不计年,取材忘其愚。
一寒我如此,百镒公无余。
今年贺公归,乃复过我庐。
当使有近行,应门有长须。
小家不耐事,鸡飞犬升闾。
莫归自有恨,亲颜一何娱。
汝家吾无忧,能致贤大夫。
吴公汉庭右,贾生世用疏。
平分太仓粟,尽读邺侯书。
士为知己留,不为食有鱼。
三言移曾母,投杼公何如。
好士如好色,昔闻今则无。

旷士慕林谷,羁人辱泥涂。

吴公汉庭右,贾生世用疏。
平分太仓粟,尽读邺侯书。
士为知己留,不为食有鱼。
三言移曾母,投杼公何如。
爱惜贤士如同爱好美色,
往昔听闻,如今却已不见。
平生以席为门(指贫寒),
未曾结识长者的车驾。
旷达之士向往山林幽谷,
羁旅之人辱没于泥途。
我愿为您执鞭役使,
不愿顺随下风趋附。
去年承蒙您先来拜访,
我怀揣名刺寄居他处。
我前往拜谒您的门庭,
如𬸚𬸦在高梧上鸣叫(喻贤士之声)。
结交不论年资长短,
取用人才忘却其愚钝。
我如此贫寒窘迫,
您虽富有却不吝百镒。
今年庆贺您归来,
您又再次经过我的陋室。
您应有近处的行程,
应门的有长须仆人。
小家经不起事端,
鸡飞狗跳于门闾。
不归家自有遗憾,
但亲人的欢颜何等愉悦。
您家我无需忧虑,
能招致贤明的大夫。
如同吴公在汉庭位列右职,
贾谊却为世所用而疏远。
平分太仓的粟米,
读尽邺侯的藏书。
士人为知己而留,
不为有鱼可食。
曾母因三言投杼(喻谣言可畏),
您对此又会如何?
To cherish scholars as one loves beauty—
Heard of in past, but none now do I see.
All my life, my door was but a mat,
Never knew the carriage of nobility.
A free soul yearns for woods and valleys deep,
A stranded man is shamed in mud and mire.
I wish to serve as whip-bearer for you,
Not follow meekly in your wake, aspire.
Last year you honored me by coming first,
I kept my card, dwelling in borrowed place.
I went to knock upon your gate,
Like phoenix crying from the tall wu-tong’s space.
In friendship, years are not accounted for,
Choosing material, you forgot my folly.
I am in such cold and need,
You, with a hundred yi, lack not a penny.
This year I congratulate your return,
And once again you pass by my hut.
You should have a short journey ahead,
A long-bearded servant at the gate to put.
My humble home cannot endure much fuss,
Chickens fly, dogs leap by the door.
Not returning home has its own regret,
But parents’ joyful faces—what a treasure more!
Your household—I have no worry there,
Able to attract worthy officers great.
Like Wu Gong at the Han court’s right,
Or Jia Yi, though his talents met a harsh fate.
Share equally the granary’s store,
Read all of Lord Ye’s books, no less.
A scholar stays for one who knows his worth,
Not merely for the fish that fills the mess.
Three rumors moved even Zeng’s mother,
How would you, sir, if faced with such, react?
以好色喻好士,展现人才治理的认同困境。
赞美傅监礼贤下士的高尚品格
本诗为五言古诗,押平声韵。
