译文我居住在邯郸客店（客栈）的时候，正好是农历冬至。晚上，我抱着双膝坐在灯前，只有影子与我相伴。我相信，家中的亲人今天会相聚到深夜，还应该谈论着我这个“远行人”。

注释①邯郸：唐县名，今河北邯郸市。②驿：驿站，客店，古代的传递公文，转运官物或出差官员途中的歇息的地方。③冬至：农历二十四节气之一。在十二月下旬，这一天白天最短，夜晚最长。古代冬至有全家团聚的习俗。

译文　　闲下来围着水池看着水里的鱼自由地游动，正好遇到小童摆弄钓鱼船。一样地喜欢鱼但是心态却不一样，我来喂食你却来垂钓。

注释闲步：散步。施食，喂食丢食。

译文农家很少有空闲的月份，五月到来人们更加繁忙。夜里刮起了南风，覆盖田垄的小麦已成熟发黄。妇女担着用竹篮盛的饭，小孩子提着用壶装的饮料，相互跟随给在田里劳动的人送去饭食，收割小麦的男子都在南冈。双脚受地面的热气熏蒸，脊梁受炎热的阳光烘烤。精疲力竭仿佛不知道天气炎热，只是希望夏日天再长一些。又见一位贫苦妇女，抱着孩儿站在割麦者身旁，右手拿着从田里拾取的麦穗，左臂上悬挂着一个破筐。听她望着别人说话，听到的人都为她感到悲伤。因为缴租纳税卖尽家田，只好拾些麦穗填饱饥肠。现在我有什么功劳德行，一直不从事农业生产。一年领取薪俸三百石米，到了年底还有余粮。想到这些内心感到非常惭愧，整日也不能忘却。

英译Farmers are seldom free during the whole year, and especially busy in May.When night came south winds blow, covering the fields were wheat that is yellow and rippened.Women carried baskets full of food, and children carried pots of soup and water.Following eachother they set out after men who worked in the fields and delievers the food, men who reaped wheats in Nangang.Their feet steamed of the heat from the ground, their backs baked under the hot sunlight.Their toil and tiredness ignored them from the heat, but what they cherished was the limited days of summer.Then a poor women, who held a child and stood by one side.Her right hand was picking up left-over wheat spikes, while a broken basket hang onto her left shoulder.Hearing what she told, makes * sad.They seld all their houses and fields to fulfill the taxes, and now their hunger can only be fulfilled upon these pieces of grains of wheat.Yet what have I gave to God that got me out of these agricultural life.300 denier of salaries per year, with rice and food that cannot be finished over the year.Thinking of this made my heart thump with shame, a shame that clings on until every end of the day.

　　红颜尚未衰老，恩宠却已断绝；她独倚着熏笼，一直坐到天明。
