髭须虽白体轻健,九十三来却少年。
问事爱知天宝里,识人皆是武皇前。
玉装剑珮身长带,绢写方书子不传。
侍女常时教合药,亦闻私地学求仙。
髭须虽白体轻健,九十三来却少年。
问事爱知天宝里,识人皆是武皇前。
玉装剑珮身长带,绢写方书子不传。
侍女常时教合药,亦闻私地学求仙。
虽然胡须已白,但身体轻健,
九十三岁了却仍像少年。
喜欢询问天宝年间的旧事,
所认识的人都是武皇时代的故旧。
身上常佩戴着玉饰的剑佩,
绢帛写就的秘方不传给儿子。
时常教侍女调配药物,
也听说他私下学习求仙之道。
Though his beard and mustache are white, his body is spry,
At ninety-three, he still seems a youth.
He loves to ask about events from the Tianbao era,
The people he knows are all from before Emperor Wu.
He always wears jade-adorned sword pendants,
His secret recipes, written on silk, he won't pass to his son.
He often teaches his maidservants to compound medicines,
And is also heard to privately study the way to become immortal.
王建赠诗给年迈的阎少保。
通过个人生命周期展现对历史认知的独特承载。
描绘九十三岁阎少保虽须发皆白却体健如少年,追忆天宝往事、武皇旧识,日常佩剑藏书、合药求仙的隐逸生活。
