【注解】:
1、雉:野鸡。
2、式微:《诗经·邶风·式微》中有“式微式微,胡不归”。这里表明自己有归隐
之意。
【韵译】:
村庄处处披满夕阳余辉,
牛羊沿着深巷纷纷回归。
老叟惦念着放牧的孙儿,
柱杖等候在自家的柴扉。
雉鸡鸣叫麦儿即将抽穗,
蚕儿成眠桑叶已经薄稀。
农夫们荷锄回到了村里,
相见欢声笑语恋恋依依。
如此安逸怎不叫我羡慕?
我不禁怅然地吟起《式微》。
【评析】:
这首诗是描写田家闲逸的。诗人面对夕阳西下,夜幕降临,恬然自得的田家晚归
景致,顿生羡慕之情。
开头四句,写田家日暮时一种闲逸景象。五、六两句写农事。七、八句写农夫闲
暇。最后两句写因闲逸而生羡情。全诗用白描手法,描绘了渭河流域初夏乡村的黄昏
景色,清新自然,诗意盎然。
--引自"超纯斋诗词" 翻译、评析:刘建勋
A FARM-HOUSE ON THE WEI RIVER
In the slant of the sun on the country-side,
Cattle and sheep trail home along the lane;
And a rugged old man in a thatch door
Leans on a staff and thinks of his son, the herdboy.
There are whirring pheasants? full wheat-ears,
Silk-worms asleep, pared mulberry-leaves.
And the farmers, returning with hoes on their shoulders,
Hail one another familiarly.
...No wonder I long for the simple life
And am sighing the old song, Oh, to go Back Again!
