送陈章甫
◎
〔唐〕李颀
七言古诗
四月南风大麦黄,枣花未落桐叶长。
青山朝别暮还见,嘶马出门思旧乡。
陈侯立身何坦荡,虬须虎眉仍大颡。
腹中贮书一万卷,不肯低头在草莽。
东门酤酒饮我曹,心轻万事如鸿毛。
醉卧不知白日暮,有时空望孤云高。
长河浪头连天黑,津吏停舟渡不得。
郑国游人未及家,洛阳行子空叹息。
闻道故林相识多,罢客昨日今如何。
【注释】: 郑国:诗人曾住颖阳,当时又任新乡尉,春秋时都属郑国范围。 【简析】: 这是一首差别诗。时陈章甫正被免职回乡。诗中极力赞美了陈的品格、气质,充满了慰藉之情,显得旷达、豪放,可见诗人和陈章甫对于弃职都是不在意的。 【评析】: 李颀的送别诗,以善于描写人物著称。此诗的开头四句写送别,轻快舒坦,情怀 旷达。中间八句,写陈章甫志节操守,说他光明磊落,清高自重。这八句是诗魂所在 (前四句写他的品德、容貌才学和志节;后四名写他形迹脱略,不与世俗同流,借酒 隐德,自持清高)。最后六句,用比兴手法暗喻仕途险恶,世态炎凉。然而诗人却不 以为芥蒂,泰然处之。 笔调轻松,风格豪爽,别具一格。 A FAREWELL TO MY FRIEND CHEN ZHANGFU In the Fourth-month the south wind blows plains of yellow barley, Date-flowers have not faded yet and lakka-leaves are long. The green peak that we left at dawn we still can see at evening, While our horses whinny on the road, eager to turn homeward. ...Chen, my friend, you have always been a great and good man, With your dragon's moustache, tiger's eyebrows and your massive forehead. In your bosom you have shelved away ten thousand volumes. You have held your head high, never bowed it in the dust. ...After buying us wine and pledging us, here at the eastern gate, And taking things as lightly as a wildgoose feather, Flat you lie, tipsy, forgetting the white sun; But now and then you open your eyes and gaze at a high lone cloud. ...The tide-head of the lone river joins the darkening sky. The ferryman beaches his boat. It has grown too late to sail. And people on their way from Cheng cannot go home, And people from Loyang sigh with disappointment. ...I have heard about the many friends around your wood land dwelling. Yesterday you were dismissed. Are they your friends today?
