《郊行》是宋代文學(xué)家王安石在至和年間(1054-1056)所創(chuàng)作的一首諷刺詩。全詩通過描寫蠶農(nóng)勤勞辛苦還鬧饑荒的現(xiàn)實(shí),暗示苛捐雜稅猛于虎,諷刺統(tǒng)治者民不聊生。
《郊行》 王安石
柔桑采盡綠陰稀,蘆箔蠶成密繭肥。
聊向村家問風(fēng)俗:如何勤苦尚兇饑?
Walking in the Countryside
Wang Anshi
Tender mulberry leaves picked so clean green shade is sparse;
On reed beds silkworms grow into corpulent cocoons.
Casually I ask the villagers of local ways,
And why after all their hard labour they still go hungry.
