湖中居人事舟檝,家家以舟作生業。
女兒粧面花樣紅,小繖翻翻亂荷葉。
日暮歸來月色新,菱歌縹緲泛煙津。
到家更約西鄰女,明日湖橋看賽神。
湖中居人事舟檝,家家以舟作生業。
女兒粧面花樣紅,小繖翻翻亂荷葉。
日暮歸來月色新,菱歌縹緲泛煙津。
到家更約西鄰女,明日湖橋看賽神。
湖上的居民以划船為生,
家家戶戶都把船當作謀生的行業。
少女們妝扮的面容像花樣鮮紅,
小小的傘兒翻動,攪亂了荷葉叢叢。
日暮歸來時月色清新明亮,
採菱的歌聲縹緲,盪漾在煙霧籠罩的水濱上。
回到家又邀約西邊的鄰家姑娘,
明日一同去湖橋觀看迎神賽會的熱鬧景象。
The lake dwellers make their living by boat and oar,
Each household takes the boat as their trade and store.
The maidens' rouged faces bloom like flowers bright,
Their small parasols twirl, disturbing lotus leaves in flight.
At dusk they return under the moon's fresh, gleaming light,
Their vague water songs drift through the misty waterways at night.
Back home, they invite the neighbor girl to join their quest,
To watch the temple fair at the lake bridge tomorrow, as their guest.
舟楫為業是適應水域環境的獨特治理模式。
描繪鏡湖居民以舟為業的水上生活圖景。
本詩為七言古詩,押平聲韻。
