《飲酒其一》是晉代詩(shī)人陶淵明創(chuàng)作的作品。開(kāi)頭兩句就提出一個(gè)富有哲理的問(wèn)題?!八s”猶言盛衰?!皹s”本意為草木的花,引申為繁盛之意。“彼此”即指上句的衰、榮。宇宙萬(wàn)物,社會(huì)人事,莫不有衰有榮,衰榮二者,緊密相連:有榮必有衰,有衰必有榮;沒(méi)有永遠(yuǎn)的、一成不變的衰,也沒(méi)有永遠(yuǎn)的、一成不變的榮。詩(shī)中衰榮并提,重點(diǎn)則在由榮變衰。下文緊接著即引人事申論之。
陶淵明 《飲酒其一》
衰榮無(wú)定在,彼此更共之。
邵生瓜田中,寧似東陵時(shí)!
寒暑有代謝,人道每如茲。
達(dá)人解其會(huì),逝將不復(fù)疑;
忽與一觴酒,日夕歡相持。
Wine-Drinking (No. 1)
Glory decay no fixed abiding
one and the other shared by turns
Master Shao in the melon patch
how ca one compare you to the old days in Tung
hot and cold displace each other
man's way for each is so
perceptive people once they discover
this truth will never return to illusion
but if they get a cup of wine
as the day darkens they seize it gladly
