苏轼·《初到黄州》

自笑平生为口忙，老来事业转荒唐。
长江绕郭知鱼美，好竹连山觉笋香。
逐客不妨员外置，诗人例作水曹郎。
只惭无补丝毫事，尚费官家压酒囊。

Upon My Arrival in Huangzhou
Su Shi
I laugh at my life for being kept busy by my mouth;
My career, in my senior years, has gone terribly awry.
Living in the loop of the Yangtze, I have a taste for fish;
Bamboos hill after hill, I'm keen on their delicious shoots.
An exile? Why not put him in an out-of-payroll position;
Poets, in such cases, usually join the ranks of water boys1,
Embarrassing, though, for no duties required whatsoever,
Not to say, in the form of wine bags2 the official handouts.
