蹔舉催科手,來吟喜雨詩。
不徒人物惠,且免吏民嗤。
三日霖隨應,千箱樂在茲。
為言農事好,卒歲保嘻嘻。
蹔舉催科手,來吟喜雨詩。
不徒人物惠,且免吏民嗤。
三日霖隨應,千箱樂在茲。
為言農事好,卒歲保嘻嘻。
暫且放下催收賦稅的手,
前來吟詠這首喜雨之詩。
這不只是對人與物的恩惠,
也能免遭官吏和百姓的嗤笑。
三日的甘霖隨即應禱而至,
千箱豐收的快樂就在於此。
且說農事前景多麼美好,
終歲可保平安喜樂融融。
I pause the hand that pressed for taxes due,
And come to chant this verse of joyful rain.
Not just a boon for people and all things,
But also sparing scorn from clerk and swain.
Three days of downpour answered as we prayed,
A thousand barns' joy lies herein contained.
Speak of how well the farming matters go,
To year's end, laughter and contentment gained.
甘霖緩解治理壓力,體現自然週期與民生福祉的關聯。
官員暫緩催稅,欣喜天降甘霖,表達對農事的關切與對及時雨的喜悅。
本詩為五言律詩,押平聲韻。
