詩(shī)的大意是:形容桃花開得燦爛,一片生機(jī)嫣然的樣子。全詩(shī)無(wú)一“桃字”、無(wú)“嬌、”“妖”之詞,卻寓繁于簡(jiǎn),將桃花三月之情之境描述得明麗奪人。有桃樹之姿、有花落清淺池塘、驚魚濺珠之奇之美、想像之奇、意象選擇之巧、詩(shī)意之簡(jiǎn)約。詩(shī)的容量之大之廣,盡在此中,真?zhèn)€是絕妙之詩(shī)。
《桃花》 蘇軾
爭(zhēng)花不待葉,密綴欲無(wú)條。
傍沼人窺鑒,驚魚水濺橋。
Peach Blossom
Su Shi
Ahead of the unfolding of leaves vying for efflorescence,
The florets are so densely interlocked as to be void of sprays in outward appearance.
By the pond a fair beholds herself in the mirror on the sly,
Scaring fishes into splashing water against the bridge nearby.
