灵源开辟有,赢缩但相随。
逆折山能碍,奔流海与期。
泥沙拆蚌蛤,云南暗蛟螭。
欲问深何许,冯夷只自知。
灵源开辟有,赢缩但相随。
逆折山能碍,奔流海与期。
泥沙拆蚌蛤,云南暗蛟螭。
欲问深何许,冯夷只自知。
灵妙的源头自开辟时便存在,
水势的涨落只是相伴相随。
山峦阻碍,使它曲折逆行,
奔流向海,是它注定的归期。
泥沙冲开了蚌壳与蛤蜊,
浑浊的波涛中蛟螭潜藏暗影。
想要问它究竟有多深,
恐怕只有水神冯夷自己知晓。
Since its primal source was opened wide,
Its ebb and flow have followed side by side.
Mountains may block and force its winding course,
To the sea it rushes with destined force.
Sands and silt split open clams and shells,
Cloudy waves hide dragons in their swells.
If you ask how deep its secrets lie,
Only the River God knows, and I.
揭示自然现象背后的恒定周期与变化规律。
描绘江水本源恒在、涨落相随的自然哲理。
本诗为五言律诗,押平声韵。
