漫道希為貴,那知夥不奢。
江南故多桂,秋仲舉敷花。
往往因人好,蕭蕭得句佳。
人誰不種菊,千載但陶家。
漫道希為貴,那知夥不奢。
江南故多桂,秋仲舉敷花。
往往因人好,蕭蕭得句佳。
人誰不種菊,千載但陶家。
人們常說物以稀爲貴,哪知道繁多也並非粗俗。
江南原本就多桂樹,中秋時節紛紛開花。
它的美好常常因欣賞它的人而更顯突出;它那蕭疏的風姿能催生佳句。
有誰不種菊花呢?但千年以來,只有陶淵明一家被傳頌。
Many say rarity is precious, yet who knows abundance is not vulgar?
South of the River, osmanthus has always been plentiful; in mid-autumn, it bursts into bloom.
Often, its beauty is enhanced by the right person; its serene grace yields excellent lines of verse.
Who does not plant chrysanthemums? Yet for a thousand years, only the Tao family is remembered.
對叢桂的詠歎體現對豐儉關係的認知轉變。
詩人詠叢桂,不以稀少為貴,而讚其繁盛亦不失雅致。
本詩為五言律詩,押平聲韻。
