Pass On This Humor of Zheng Guangwen to Su Siye
戏 简 郑 广 文 兼 呈 苏 司 业
广 文 到 官 舍
系 马 堂 阶 下。
醉 则 骑 马 归
颇 遭 官 长 罵。
才 名 三 十 年
坐 客 寒 无 毡。
赖 有 苏 司 业
时 时 乞 酒 钱。
Xi Jian Zheng Guang Wen Jian Cheng Su Si Ye
Guang wen dao guan she
Xi ma tang jie xia.
Zui ze qi ma gui
Po zao guan chang ma.
Cai ming san shi nian
Zuo ke han wu zhan.
Lai you su si ye
Shi shi yi jiu qian.
Pass On This Humor of Zheng Guangwen to Su Siye
Guangwen arrives at his official’s office
He has to pull up and tie up his horse by himself below the stairs out back.
Model drunkard, difficult for him to find his horse to go home
Often and commonly meets with the verbal abuse of his boss.
Thirty years ago his talent was bright
All of his visitors have to find a cold and uncomfortable place to sit.
Thank goodness you have someone like Su Siye
Again and again he asks Mr. Zheng to take more of his wine and money.
