(69) Reflections
感怀
Tang Yin (1470-1523)
唐寅
I seek no drink divine nor meditation deep;
不炼金丹不坐禅，
Hungry, I take my meal, and tired, I go to sleep.
饥来吃饭倦来眠。
I live on selling verse and pictures as I please;
生涯画笔兼诗笔，
I rove among red flowers and green willow trees.
踪迹花边与柳边。
My face grows old from year to year in mirror bright;
镜里形骸春共老，
My wife and I enjoy candlelight as moonlight.
灯前夫妇月同园。
I drink till drunk as often as I enjoy pleasure;
万场快乐千场醉，
An immoratal on earth, I love my life of leisure.
世上闲人地上仙。
