平原拙生事,数月且食粥。
蠋也巧于贫,晚食以当肉。
士穷见节义,不以富贵卜。
用志苟如此,宁有忧不足。
我生本寒士,犁鉏起穷谷。
顾惟疎野姿,动辄当忤俗。
得禄本甚微,夺去盖聊复。
虽云出无车,定免赤其族。
在我无所念,于君果何辱。
而君终日间,惘惘形面目。
幼穉悉遣归,不虑瓶无粟。
大儿颇类吾,藜羹甘半菽。
庭前既除草,窗外亦栽菊。
属君早来过,束书期共读。

属君早来过,束书期共读。
在平原之地,我不善营生,数月来只吃粥度日。
就像尺蠖善于适应贫困,我把晚食当作吃肉一样满足。
士人的节义在穷困时显现,不靠富贵来占卜前程。
志向如果能像这样坚定,哪里还会有不足的忧愁?
我生来本是寒门士子,从穷困的山谷中扶犁锄起家。
想到自己疏野不羁的性情,动不动就会忤逆世俗。
得到的俸禄本来就很微薄,被夺去也就算了吧。
虽说出门没有车马,但定然能免于让家族蒙羞受刑。
对我自己而言,没有什幺可挂念的。
对于你来说,这究竟有什幺耻辱呢?
而你终日之间,面容总是一副惘然若失的样子。
我把幼小的孩子都打发回去了,不忧虑家里米缸无粮。
大儿子很像我,满足于藜羹和半豆之食。
庭院前面已经除去了杂草。
窗户外面也栽种了菊花。
嘱咐你早些过来探望。
捆好书卷,期待我们能一起共读。
In level lands, clumsy at making a living, for months I've eaten only gruel.
Like the moth, clever in poverty, I make my late meal serve as meat.
A scholar's integrity shows in adversity, not by seeking wealth or rank.
If one's will is set thus, how can there be worry about lack?
I was born a humble scholar, from plowing in a remote valley I arose.
Considering my rustic, untamed nature, I often offend common customs.
The official salary I gained was meager indeed, and its loss is but a minor setback.
Though I say I go out without a carriage, at least my clan is spared disgrace.
For myself, I have no regrets.
For you, what insult does this truly bring?
Yet you, throughout the day, wear a face of melancholy and distress.
I've sent all the young children away, not worrying if the jar lacks grain.
My eldest son resembles me much, content with broth of wild herbs and half-beans.
Before the courtyard, I've cleared the weeds.
Outside the window, I've also planted chrysanthemums.
I urge you to come visit early,
With books bundled, hoping we can read together.
从治理视角看,个体在资源匮乏下的生存韧性。
诗人自述生活困顿,数月只能食粥,表达对清贫生活的无奈与自嘲。
本诗为五言古诗,押平声韵。
