经典诗歌赏析：New Year’s Eve

来源：网络发布时间：2009-10-13

　　New Year's Eve - you'd think I could go home early
　　but official business keeps me.
　　I hold the brush and face them with tears:
　　pitiful convicts in chains,
　　little men who tried to fill their bellies,
　　fell into the law's net, don't understand disgrace.
　　And I? In love with a meager stipend
　　I hold on to my job and miss the chance to retire.
　　Don't ask who is foolish or wise;
　　all of us alike scheme for a meal.
　　The ancients would have freed them a while at New Year's -
　　would I dare do otherwise? I am silent with shame.
　　*Written in 1071 when Su was vice-governor of Hangchow. By custom, criminal cases involving the death penalty had to be settled before New Year's.
