乞食古為恥,浮屠名自修。
黎明抱應器,禺中飫乾餱。
果腹固其願,之墦非所羞。
歉歉常不足,遑遑茲有求。
素飽聊安坐,調饑復來遊。
顧爾殊靈輒,翳桑何用酬。
乞食古為恥,浮屠名自修。
黎明抱應器,禺中飫乾餱。
果腹固其願,之墦非所羞。
歉歉常不足,遑遑茲有求。
素飽聊安坐,調饑復來遊。
顧爾殊靈輒,翳桑何用酬。
乞討食物在古代被視為恥辱,
但浮屠(僧人)的名聲建立在自我修行之上。
黎明時分他託著應器(缽盂)準備出發,
臨近中午便能飽食他人施捨的乾糧。
填飽肚子固然是他的願望,
前往墳地乞食也並非他所羞於去做的事。
心中常感歉然不足,
惶惶不安,於此有所求取。
素來吃飽後便安然靜坐,
飢餓時再次出遊乞討。
看你與靈輒終究不同,
翳桑之下的恩惠又何須報答?
Begging for food was deemed a shame in days of old,
Yet the monk's name is built on self-cultivation bold.
At dawn he holds his alms bowl, ready to depart,
By mid-morn, he's sated with the offered bread and tart.
To fill his belly is indeed his simple plea,
To the graveside he goes, no shame for all to see.
Often he feels a lack, a want that does not cease,
Restless and anxious, he seeks a moment's peace.
When fully fed, he sits in tranquil meditation,
When hunger stirs again, he roams in search of donation.
Compared to Ling Zhe, your spirit is not the same,
What use is repaying kindness under the mulberry's name?
治理視角:對浮屠名節的辨析,觸及社會規範與個體道德實踐的張力。
