[宋]歐陽修
Hundred chirps and thousand twitters and movement at will,
Mountain flowers red and purple, trees high and low.
Just learned what it sounds like to be locked in a golden cage,
A far cry from the unrestrained warbling in the woods.
百囀千聲隨意移,
山花紅紫樹高低。
始知鎖向金籠聽,
不及林間自在啼。
《畫眉鳥》是北宋文學(xué)家歐陽修創(chuàng)作的一首七言絕句。此詩前兩句寫景,景中寓理;后兩句言理,情理兼融。詩人在再現(xiàn)良辰美景時,著意于將自己感悟到的理念不露痕跡地含蘊其間,從而表現(xiàn)出對禁錮人才的憎惡與否定、對自由生活的熱愛與向往。這首詩情景結(jié)合,寓意深遠。
