干戈 王中[1] 干戈[2]未定欲何之[3]？ 一事无成两鬓丝[4]。 踪迹[5]大纲[6]王粲[7]传， 情怀[8]小样[9]杜陵诗[10]。 鹡鸰[11]音断[12]人千里， 乌鹊巢寒月一枝。 安得中山千日酒[13]， 酩[14]然直到太平时。 注释： [1] 王中，宋末诗人。《千家诗》注说：“言干戈不定无处可避，一事无成人已老也。王粲当汉末赋诗感怀，杜甫以唐乱行吟自遣。予之心迹，迨大同而小异也。鹡鸰知有兄弟患难，哀鸣以相救；子有兄弟则千里无音。乌鹊南飞而无枝可依，子亦近似。安得沽中山仙人酿千日之酒，使人一饮而醉至太平时方醒乎！”诗人生于宋末战乱之时，向往太平生活，这是古代知识分子的心声。 [2] 干戈：指战争。 [3] 之：到。 [4] 丝：指白发。 [5] 踪迹：脚印，此处指心迹。 [6] 大纲：指大体相同。 [7] 王粲：东汉末年人，擅诗文，曾写下反映战争苦难的《七哀诗》。 [8] 情怀：情感胸怀。 [9] 小样：指略微相似。 [10] 杜陵诗：杜甫写下的反映民生疾苦的诗歌。 [11] 鹡鸰：鸟名，比喻兄弟。 [12] 音断：音信断绝。 [13] 中山千日酒：中山人制造的、喝后能大醉千日的酒。 [14] 酩：酩酊大醉。 Spears and Shields Wang Zhong Where can I go when spears and shields make an array?
