柴門盡日扃,緣是少將迎。
但得常無事,何須更入城。
病同愁鶴瘦,吟伴月蛩清。
我自於時左,非幹避姓名。
柴門盡日扃,緣是少將迎。
但得常無事,何須更入城。
病同愁鶴瘦,吟伴月蛩清。
我自於時左,非幹避姓名。
柴門整日都緊閉著,
是因為少有賓客需要迎接。
只要能長久地沒有俗事打擾,
又何須再進城去呢?
疾病使我如同憂愁的鶴一般消瘦。
吟詩時,有明月和清越的蟋蟀聲相伴。
我本就是個與時代不合拍的人,
並非是為了躲避名聲才這樣做。
My wicker gate stays closed throughout the day.
For few are the visitors coming my way.
If I can but keep constant peace and ease,
What need is there to venture into town, please?
My ailment, like a crane, leaves me gaunt with care.
My chanting finds company in crickets clear under moonlight fair.
I am myself a man out of step with the times,
Not for hiding my name, nor for avoiding its chimes.
通過社交邊界的治理實現個人精神世界的認同。
描寫隱居者柴門常閉、謝絕應酬的閒適生活。
本詩為五言律詩,押平聲韻。
