《直玉堂作》是南宋詩人洪咨夔創(chuàng)作的一首七言絕句。此詩寫入直翰林,替皇帝擬拜相詔書的輕松、得意之情。首句寫宮門鎖上以后宮內(nèi)環(huán)境的寂靜;次句寫詩人正在起草兩位宰相的任命書。后兩句寫五更天的情況,三句寫已經(jīng)傳來了報(bào)曉的聲音;末句寫月光照著臺(tái)階,也照著紫薇花,并暗用紫薇省典故。詩寫得含蓄而有味。
《直玉堂作》 洪咨夔
禁門深鎖寂無嘩,濃墨淋漓兩相麻。
唱徹五更天未曉,一墀月浸紫薇花。
On Duty in the Jade Hall
Hong Zikui
The palace silent, with gates and doors locked all,
Dense ink is spilt to draft two edicts in Jade Hall.
Before the watchmen announce the early daybreak,
I see the roses steeped in moonlight not yet awake.
