257257【原文】
嗜寂者,观白云幽石而通玄;趋荣者,见清歌妙舞而忘倦。唯 自得之士,无暄寂无荣枯,无往非自适之天。
【今译】
喜好清静的人,看到白云幽石,便能领悟玄妙道理;追逐名声 的人,欣赏轻歌曼舞,便会忘记疲倦在身。只有保持天然本性的人, 才不分热闹和寂寞、显要和冷落,才能无所不适、自在逍遥。
A person who is inclined to quietude can penetrate the mystery of the Way just by gazing at the clouds in the sky and the hidden rocks in the gullies, A person who pursues honour and fame finds relief from fatigue in the enjoyment of fine singing and dancing. Only he who preserves his natural essence will find a world naturally congenial to himself wherever he goes. And he will feel carefree and happy in whatever circumstances 一 whether being busy in high office or being idle in solitary obscurity.
258258【原文】
孤云出岫,去留一无所系;朗镜悬空,静噪两不相干。
【今译】
孤独的云彩飘离山峦,离开或留下都没有任何牵挂;如镜的明 月高悬空中,宁静或吵闹都和它没有关联。
When a patch of cloud floats among mountain peaks, it cares not whether it hovers or drifts. The serenity of the bright moon hanging in the night sky has no connection whatsoever with worldly flurry.
259259【原文】
悠长之趣,不得于儆酽,而得于啜饮水;惆怅之怀,不生于 枯寂,而生于品竹调丝。故知浓处味常短,淡中趣独真也。
【今译】
趣味悠长,并非出自美酒佳肴――粗茶淡饭令人回味无穷;心 情悲伤,并非来自寂寞生活 美妙声色让人懊恼重重。由此看出,美食声色趣味短暂,恬淡清静意味深长。
A truly pleasing taste is found not in rich and rare dishes, but in plain food and drink. Heartache is not a product of a life of solitude, but a life of gaiety often brings vexation and anxiety. Therefore, be aware that sensuous delights are ephemeral, and true enjoyment is only to be found in a cloistered life and simple tastes.

禅宗曰:饥来吃饭倦来眠。"诗旨曰:眼前景致口头语。"尽 极高寓于极平,至难出于至易;有意者反远,无心者自近也。
【今译】
禅宗说:饿了吃饭困了睡觉。"作诗的秘诀则说:眼前的景致, 口头的语言。"都是把最高深的道理包含在最平常的语言之内,最困 难之事诞生于最简单之中;有意去做,难以如愿,无心去做,反倒成真。
The Chan (Zen) Buddhist sect teaches: t6When you are hungry, eat; when you are tired, sleep.” The secret of composing poetry is “Take the scene in front of your eyes,and express it in colloquial language.” The loftiest and most profound truth has its original home in the most commonplace, and the most difficult accomplishment emerges from the easiest. A man who determines to accomplish something ends up far from doing so, while a man who has no intention of accomplishing it comes nearest to doing so.
