《蚕妇》,是晚唐诗人杜荀鹤所写的一首七言绝句,表达了诗人对晚唐封建社会不平等的忧愤。

《蚕妇》 杜荀鹤

粉色全无饥色加,岂知人世有荣华。
年年道我蚕辛苦,底事浑身着苎麻。

A Woman Silkworm-Raiser
Du Xunhe

My face has no colour, only signs of hunger;
Wealth and good fortune are strangers to me.
People constantly praise me for toiling over silkworms,
But why for my clothing do I have only coarse ramie?
