《送東萊學(xué)士無競》,是唐代詩人陳子昂創(chuàng)作的一首五律。前二句以襯墊方式來寫寶劍千金珍貴、平生未認可別人,突顯出王無競才華橫溢,二者之間的深厚情誼。三四句聊表惜別之情,借寶劍的千金之貴,側(cè)面贊揚了王無競的才志和品格。五六句借"孤松”"眾木”勉勵王無競,不避風(fēng)刀霜劍與嚴寒搏斗,不與權(quán)貴同流合污,保持頑強性格和高尚情操。末兩句寫詩人勸勉和鼓勵友人振奮精神,亦借此警醒自身不甘沉淪,奮發(fā)有為的凌云豪情,流露出自己政治上遭受挫折的不平與憤懣。
陳子昂·《送東萊學(xué)士無競》
寶劍千金買,生平未許人。
懷君萬里別,持贈送交親。
孤松宜晚歲,眾木愛芳春。
已矣將何道,無令白發(fā)新。

This sword that cost me so dear, never have I offered it to anyone. Now that you are going away—far, far away—my dear friend, let it go by your side.
Trees of the common sort delight in springtime; it's the lone pine that to the wintry season will abide.
