家中渐渐贫,良由慵懒妇。
长头爱床坐,饱吃没娑肚。
频年懃生儿,不肯收家具。
饮酒五夫敌,不解缝衫袴。
(「不解」,斯五六四一卷作「不能」。
)事当好衣裳,得便走出去。
不要男为伴,心里恒攀慕。
东家能湼舌,西家好合[鬭]。
两家既不和,角眼相蛆姡。
别觅好时对,趁却莫交住。

家中渐渐变得贫困,
实在是由于有个慵懒的妇人。
她总爱赖在床上久坐,
吃饱了肚子还不知足。
连年勤快地生孩子,
却不肯收拾家里的器具。
喝酒能抵五个男人,
却不懂得缝补衣衫裤袜。
遇到需要好衣裳的场合,
她就找机会溜出门去。
不要丈夫作伴,
心里总在攀比羡慕别人。
东边那家能搬弄是非,
西边那家喜欢争斗。
两家既然不和,
就互相瞪眼、充满敌意。
不如另找个好对象,
趁早打发她走别让她住下。
The household gradually falls into poverty,
All due to a lazy and idle wife.
She loves to sit long in bed,
Eating her fill, her belly never sated.
Year after year diligent in bearing sons,
Yet unwilling to tidy up the housewares.
Drinking wine, a match for five men,
But cannot sew a shirt or trousers.
When there's a need for fine clothes,
She just finds a chance to go out.
She doesn't want her husband as companion,
Her heart constantly yearns and admires others.
The east neighbor can slander with a forked tongue,
The west neighbor loves to pick a fight.
Since the two families are not in harmony,
They glare at each other with hostile eyes.
Better seek a good match elsewhere,
Seize the chance and don't let her stay.
敦煌遗书中的唐代白话诗。
诗中描绘的家庭治理失效,源于核心成员的认同缺失与行为失范。
通过描绘懒散主妇的日常行为,讽刺家庭因妇人慵懒而渐贫的现象。
