Li Ye: Eight Most ~ 李冶 《八至》 with English Translations

201

小编导读:《八至》是唐朝李冶的作品。李冶即是李季兰,唐朝著名的女道士。由远近东西至深浅清溪,再至高明日月,又至亲疏夫妻,人生就这样被刺穿,兀自散无奈颓靡之态,自然的绚丽风景亦成情感的凄凉景象。二十四个字,却是一程生命由盛及衰的花开花落,道破了人生的真相,酷烈,决绝,永远。

李冶 《八至》

至近至远东西,至深至浅清溪。
至高至明日月,至亲至疏夫妻。

Eight Most
Li Ye

nearest furthest, east west
deep, a shallow, a clear creek
highest brightest sun and moon
so close so far—man wife
