草满池塘水满陂,山衔落日浸寒漪。
牧童归去横牛背,短笛无腔信口吹。
The Evening View in the Countryside
Grass fills the pond and brims the embankment;
The mountain holds the setting sun, its reflection rippling in the cold water.
The cowherd returns, sitting sideways on the ox’s back;
With no particular tune, he plays his short flute.
这首宋代诗人雷震所作的《村晚》,描绘了一幅宁静而生动的乡村黄昏景象。前两句通过草、池塘、山和落日等意象,勾勒出一幅色彩鲜明的画面。后两句则聚焦于牧童的形象,展现了乡村生活的悠闲自在。诗中的牧童悠然自得地横坐在牛背上,随意吹奏着短笛,仿佛时间都在这一刻静止了。整首诗语言朴实却意境深远,表达了诗人对田园生活的向往与热爱。
