235. 寻隐者不遇（贾岛）
正文
现代汉语译文
正文
松下问童子，言师采药去。
现代汉语译文
我在松树下询问童子，他说师父上山采药去了。
诗省去了提问原话，直接留下童子的回答。“松下”既交代住所环境，也先写出隐居气息。
正文
只在此山中，云深不知处。
现代汉语译文
师父就在这座山里，只是云雾太深，不知道他具体在什么地方。
距离看似很近，位置却无法确定。“只在”带来希望，“不知处”随即把希望挡在深云之中。
赏析 · Commentary
四句其实是一段问答 · Four Lines Condense a Conversation
诗中明写的说话人只有童子，但他的三句回答背后藏着访客连续的追问：师父在吗？去了哪里？能找到吗？贾岛删掉问句，让回答自己带出谈话过程。二十个字因此既有对话，也有一次希望升起又落空的变化。
Only the boy's speech is written, but his three-part answer implies the visitor's successive questions: Is your master here? Where has he gone? Can he be found? Jia Dao removes the questions and lets the replies reveal the conversation. The twenty characters hold both dialogue and a hope that rises, then fails.
人没遇见，山却越来越清楚 · The Person Is Absent; the Mountain Becomes Clearer
寻找以“不遇”告终，沿途景物却逐步展开：先是松树，再是整座山，最后是深云。隐者没有出现，他的生活环境反而占满了诗。这样的缺席并非空白，读者从松、药和云中已经能想见他远离尘俗的日常。
The search ends without a meeting, yet the setting expands from pine to mountain to deep cloud. The recluse never appears, but the world in which he lives fills the poem. His absence is not empty: pine, medicinal herbs, and cloud are enough to suggest a life removed from ordinary society.
