枯鱼过河泣[1]

无名氏

枯鱼过河泣,

何时悔复及!

作书与鲂鱮[2]:

相教[3]慎出入!

注释:

[1] 枯鱼过河泣:收入《杂曲歌辞》,这首诗写一个遭遇横祸的人以枯鱼自比,警告亲友凡事要小心谨慎。

[2] 鲂:形似鳊鱼。鱮:鲢鱼。

[3] 相教:相告。

Song of a Dried Fish

Anonymous

A dried fish weeps, ferried across the stream;

Already caught now, he repents too late.

He writes a letter to the tench and bream,

Warning them to be wary of the bait.
