摸鱼子
高爱山隐居
张炎
爱吾庐、
傍湖千顷，
苍茫一片清润。
晴岚暖翠融融处，
花影倒窥天镜。
沙浦迥[1]。
看野水涵波，
隔柳横孤艇。
眠鸥未醒。
甚占得莼乡[2]，
都无人见，
斜照起春暝[3]。
还重省。
岂料山中秦晋，
桃源今度难认。
林间即是长生源路，
一笑原非捷径。
深更静。
待散发吹箫，
跨鹤天风冷。
凭高露饮。
正碧落尘空，
光摇半壁，
月在万松顶。
注释：
[1]迥：形容很远。
[2]莼乡：这里指代故乡。
[3]暝：黄昏。
Groping for Fish
· Hermitage in Mount High Love
Zhang Yan
I love my cot by the lakeside
So fair and wide,
A vast expanse so vague and clear.
On fine days the far-flung hills warm appear,
With flowers reflected in the mirror of the skies.
The sand beach far away, I seem
To see the rippling water beam,
Under the willow trees a lonely boat lies.
The gulls asleep, not yet awake,
Unseen in my native village by the lake.
The setting sun would bring
Twilight to spring.
I meditate:
Who can anticipate
Even Peach Blossom Land
Will witness dynasties fall or stand?
The pathway in the woods will lead to a long life.
I laugh, for it is not a shortcut to win in strife.
It’s calm when deep is night,
I would play on my flute with loosened hair
And ride my crane to brave the cold wind in my flight.
I would drink dew on high
And waft in the air.
The moon atop the pines sheds its light
Over the conquered land far and nigh.
Notes：
The poet prefers his hermitage in the southern mountains than officialdom in the northern capital.
