邱为: 寻西山隐者不遇/ qiu wei: after missing the recluse on the western mountain
寻西山隐者不遇
邱为
绝顶一茅茨， 直上三十里。
扣关无僮仆， 窥室惟案几。
若非巾柴车， 应是钓秋水。
差池不相见， 黾勉空仰止。
草色新雨中， 松声晚窗里。
及兹契幽绝， 自足荡心耳。
虽无宾主意， 颇得清净理。
兴尽方下山， 何必待之子。
after missing the recluse on the western mountain
qiu wei
to your hermitage here on the top of the mountain
i have climbed, without stopping, these ten miles.
i have knocked at your door, and no one answered;
i have peeped into your room, at your seat beside the table.
perhaps you are out riding in your canopied chair,
or fishing, more likely, in some autumn pool.
sorry though i am to be missing you,
you have become my meditation --
the beauty of your grasses, fresh with rain,
and close beside your window the music of your pines.
i take into my being all that i see and hear,
soothing my senses, quieting my heart;
and though there be neither host nor guest,
have i not reasoned a visit complete?
…after enough, i have gone down the mountain.
why should i wait for you any longer?
