绝句

志南[1]

古木阴中系短篷[2],

杖藜[3]扶我过桥东。

沾衣欲湿杏花雨[4],

吹面不寒杨柳风[5]。

注释:

[1] 志南:南宋的诗僧。这首小诗第一句写春游水上,第二句写登岸徐行,第三句写柔柔细雨,第四句写柔风。无论水陆风雨,诗人都悠然自得。可见古代无论僧俗,都受传统文化熏染,热爱自然之美,已经天人合一了。

[2] 短篷:装有篷子的小船。

[3] 杖藜:藜茎制作的拐杖。

[4] 杏花雨:夹杂着杏花花瓣的细雨。

[5] 杨柳风:吹拂着杨柳的轻风。

A Quatrain

Monk Zhi Nan

I moor my small boat in the shade of ancient trees,

Crossing the bridge, cane in hand, I go where I please.

The drizzle moistens my gown with wet apricot,

The wind caressing my face with willows chills me not.
