216. 终南望余雪(祖咏)
正文
现代汉语译文
正文
终南阴岭秀,积雪浮云端。
现代汉语译文
终南山朝北的山岭显得格外秀美,峰上的积雪仿佛浮在云端。
“阴岭”指背阴的北坡,积雪更不容易融化。“浮”不是雪真的飘起,而是远望时雪峰与云层相接。
正文
林表明霁色,城中增暮寒。
现代汉语译文
树林梢头显出雪后初晴的明亮天色,长安城里到了傍晚更添寒意。
“林表”是树林上方;“霁色”是雨雪停止后的晴光。诗从远山的亮色转到城中的体感:雪景虽明净,融雪时的傍晚却更冷。

远望中的三层空间 · Three Layers in a Distant View
四句里有三层距离:最高处是云端与积雪,中间是林梢,最近处是诗人所在的城中。视线先向上,再沿山坡落下,最后回到人的身体。“暮寒”不是额外添加的感想,而是远山积雪对城中生活的实际影响。远景因此没有停在一幅画上。
The four lines contain three distances: snow and cloud at the highest level, treetops in the middle, and the city where the observer stands. The eye rises, descends along the mountain, and finally returns to the body. Evening cold is not an added reflection but the snow mountain's physical effect on urban life. The distant view therefore does not remain merely a picture.
四句在“寒”字收住 · Everything Settles on the Word Cold
前面三个分句都在写“看”:山岭秀,积雪高,雪后天色明。末句忽然改写感觉,城里更冷。这个转折让景物有了时间,日色从晴明走到傍晚;也有了观察者,他虽然直到最后才通过寒意出现,却一直站在城中仰望。
The first three clauses concern sight: a graceful ridge, high snow, clear light after the storm. The last line abruptly changes sense and tells us that the city has grown colder. The turn gives the view a time of day, moving from brightness toward evening, and it reveals the observer, who has been standing in the city looking upward all along.
