《送綦毋潜落第还乡》-凯发官网平台

【注解】：
１、东山客：指东晋谢宁，曾隐居东山。
２、采薇：指殷末、叔齐采薇西山。
３、远：这里指不能入金马门。
４、寒食：节令名，清明前一天或两天。

【韵译】：
政治清明时代绝无隐者存在，
为朝政服务有才者纷纷出来。
连你这个象谢安的山林隐者，
也不再效法伯夷叔齐去采薇。
你应试落弟不能待诏金马门，
那是命运不济谁说吾道不对？
去年寒食时节你正经过江淮，
滞留京洛又缝春衣已过一载。
我们又在长安城外设酒饯别，
同心知己如今又要与我分开。
你行将驾驶着小船南下归去，
不几天就可把自家柴门扣开。
远山的树木把你的身影遮盖，
夕阳余辉映得孤城艳丽多彩。
你暂不被录用纯属偶然的事，
别以为知音稀少而徒自感慨！

【评析】：
??这是一首劝慰友人落第的诗。
??落第还乡之人，心情自然懊丧。作为挚友，多方给予慰籍，使其觉得知音有人是
极为重要的。全诗着意在这个主旨上加以烘染，有叙事、有写景、有抒情，有感慨，
有勉励。写景清新，抒情柔蜜，感慨由衷，勉励挚敬，吟来令人振奋。
--引自"超纯斋诗词"bookbest.163.net 翻译、评析：刘建勋 　　

to qiwu qian bound home
after failing in an examination

in a happy reign there should be no hermits;
the wise and able should consult together....
so you, a man of the eastern mountains,
gave up your life of picking herbs
and came all the way to the gate of gold --
but you found your devotion unavailing.
...to spend the day of no fire on one of the southern rivers,
you have mended your spring clothes here in these northern cities.
i pour you the farewell wine as you set out from the capital --
soon i shall be left behind here by my bosomfriend.
in your sail-boat of sweet cinnamon-wood
you will float again toward your own thatch door,
led along by distant trees
to a sunset shining on a far-away town.
...what though your purpose happened to fail,
doubt not that some of us can hear high music.
