書劍當年遍兩川,歸來垂釣鏡湖邊。
老皆有死豈獨我,士固多貧寧怨天。
物外勝遊攜鶴去,琴中絕譜就僧傳。
莫言白首詩才盡,讀罷猶能意爽然。
書劍當年遍兩川,歸來垂釣鏡湖邊。
老皆有死豈獨我,士固多貧寧怨天。
物外勝遊攜鶴去,琴中絕譜就僧傳。
莫言白首詩才盡,讀罷猶能意爽然。
當年我攜書帶劍走遍了蜀地東西兩川,
如今歸來,在鏡湖邊垂釣度過晚年。
人老了都有一死,難道只有我能例外?
士人本就多陷貧困,豈能埋怨蒼天。
超脫塵世,我想帶著仙鶴去尋訪勝境;
琴中的絕妙曲譜,正可向高僧求傳。
莫要說我白髮滿頭詩才已盡,
讀完詩篇,依然感到心意暢快欣然。
With books and sword, I roamed the two rivers in my prime,
Now I return to fish by Mirror Lake in my old time.
All men must die—why should I alone be spared from death?
Scholars are often poor—why should I blame heaven's breath?
Beyond the world, I'd roam with a crane as my guide;
From a monk, I'd learn rare tunes that on the lute abide.
Don't say my poetic talent's drained with hoary hair;
After reading, my spirit still feels fresh and fair.
從書劍報國到歸隱垂釣,體現了個人理想與現實環境的博弈。
回憶昔日文武雙全、遍遊兩川的豪情,與如今歸隱鏡湖垂釣的閒適形成對比,流露壯志未酬的淡淡惆悵。
本詩為七言律詩,押平聲韻。
