鉗口刳腸未足殫,窮原探本可觀瀾。
乞醯孰謂鄰非直,反矢須知友必端。
暴虎欲從頭碎璧,沐猴還慮髮衝冠。
積薪措火居其下,試問賈生安未安。
鉗口刳腸未足殫,窮原探本可觀瀾。
乞醯孰謂鄰非直,反矢須知友必端。
暴虎欲從頭碎璧,沐猴還慮髮衝冠。
積薪措火居其下,試問賈生安未安。
鉗住嘴巴、剖開肚腸尚且不足以耗盡懲罰,
追溯源頭、探究根本,方能看清洶湧的波瀾。
誰說拒絕借醋的鄰居就不正直?
必須明白,歸還箭矢的朋友必定是端正之人。
徒手搏虎,我寧願將玉璧在頭上撞碎,
給猴子沐浴,仍擔憂它怒髮衝冠。
堆積柴草並將火種置於其下,
試問賈生,你是否感到安穩?
To gag the mouth and gut the innards is not enough to exhaust the punishment,
To trace the source and probe the root, one can see the surging waves.
Who says a neighbor who refuses vinegar is not upright?
One must know a friend who returns an arrow is surely honorable.
To fight a tiger bare-handed, I'd rather smash the jade on my head,
To wash a monkey, I still worry its hair will stand on end in rage.
Piling firewood and placing flames beneath it,
I ask you, Master Jia, are you at ease or not?
追求根本的認知過程,是對複雜現象的深度治理。
以鉗口刳腸爲喻,表達對追根溯源、探究本質的推崇。
本詩為七言律詩,押平聲韻。
