耳顺何为土木勤,叔孙墙屋有前闻。
纵然一世如红叶,犹得十年吟白云。
性逸且图称野客,才难非敢傲明君。
清甜数尺沙泉井,平与邻家昼夜分。
耳顺何为土木勤,叔孙墙屋有前闻。
纵然一世如红叶,犹得十年吟白云。
性逸且图称野客,才难非敢傲明君。
清甜数尺沙泉井,平与邻家昼夜分。
年届耳顺为何还辛勤于土木?
叔孙建墙屋之事早有前闻。
纵然一生短暂如红叶飘零,
还能有十年吟咏白云的时光。
生性闲逸只求被称为山野之客,
才能不足不敢傲视明君。
数尺深的清甜沙泉井水,
公平地与邻家昼夜共用。
At sixty, why toil with earth and wood?
Uncle Sun's walled house is known of old.
Though a lifetime may pass like a red leaf,
I still have ten years to chant to white clouds.
My nature is free, content as a rustic;
My talent is scant, dare not scorn wise lord.
A sweet sand-spring well, just a few feet deep,
Equally shared with neighbors day and night.
诗人晚年建新屋自述心志。
在有限的生命周期中追求精神认同的安顿。
诗人借建新屋表达归隐田园、安享闲逸生活的志趣
