宦途昔似伏轅駒,退處今如縱壑魚。
手自掃除松菊徑,身常枕藉老莊書。
郊居本自依農圃,社飲何妨逐裡閭。
白髮蕭然還自笑,風流猶見過江初。
宦途昔似伏轅駒,退處今如縱壑魚。
手自掃除松菊徑,身常枕藉老莊書。
郊居本自依農圃,社飲何妨逐裡閭。
白髮蕭然還自笑,風流猶見過江初。
往昔的仕途就像被拴在車轅上的馬駒,
如今退隱,卻如放歸深壑的游魚。
親手打掃松菊掩映的小徑,
常常以老莊之書為枕蓆。
郊野居住本就為了依傍農田園圃,
參與鄉社聚飲,何妨追隨鄰里鄉親。
白髮稀疏,依然自嘲自笑,
那瀟灑的氣度,彷彿還如當年初過江時一般。
My career once was like a horse tethered to a cart,
Now in retreat, I'm a fish set free in the deep.
I sweep the path myself where pines and chrysanthemums grow,
And often rest my head upon the books of Lao and Zhuang.
My country dwelling was always meant to be near fields and gardens,
Why not join the village feast, following the neighborhood crowd?
My white hair sparse, I still laugh at myself,
Yet the air of my prime, I see it as when I first crossed the river.
從政治博弈中抽身,獲得身份認同的轉變。
詩人以伏轅駒與縱壑魚為喻,對比昔日宦途束縛與當下退隱自由,表達對閒適生活的滿足。
本詩為七言律詩,押平聲韻。
