《秋野》杜甫(712-770) __ 江紹倫英譯

《Autumn Wild》 Du Fu

易識浮生理  To know the order of life is elementary
難教一物違  To find exceptions to the rule is thorny
水深魚極樂  Deep water offers a place for fishers to merry
林茂鳥知歸  Dense woods provide homes for birds to roost safely

吾老甘貧病  In old age one accepts poverty and sickness sensibly
榮華有是非  To temper with fame and wealth invites disputes many
秋風吹幾杖  Autumn winds encourage old folks to seek tranquility
不厭此山薇  Northern hill vegetables offer tasteful diets healthily
