朗读这篇文章

贫女

[唐]秦韬玉

蓬门[1]未识绮罗香，

拟托良媒益[2]自伤。

谁爱风流高格调[3]，

共怜[4]时世[5]俭梳妆。

敢将十指夸针巧，

不把双眉斗[6]画长。

苦恨年年压金线[7]，

为他人作嫁衣裳。

注释：

[1]蓬门：蓬草扎的门，指穷人家。

[2]益：更加。

[3]风流高格调：雅致的妆饰。

[4]怜：喜爱。

[5]时世：当今。

[6]斗：比赛。

[7]压金线：用金线刺绣。

A Poor Maid

Qin Taoyu

In thatched hut I know not fragrant silks and brocade;

To be married I can’t find a good go-between.

Who would love an uncommon fashion though self-made?

All pity my simple toilet and humble mien.

I dare boast my fingers’needlework without peer,

But I won’t vie with maidens painting eyebrows long.

I regret to stitch golden thread from year to year,

But to make wedding gowns which to others belong.
