孤鸿海上来,池潢不敢顾。
侧见双翠鸟,巢在三珠树。
矫矫珍木巅,得无金丸惧?
美服患人指,高明逼神恶?
今我游冥冥,弋者何所慕!
A lonely swan from the sea flies,
To alight on puddles it does not deign.
Nesting in the poplar of pearls
It spies and questions green birds twain:
"Don't you fear the threat of slings,
Perched on top of branches so high?
Nice clothes invite pointing fingers,
High climbers god's good will defy.
Bird-hunters will crave me in vain,
For I roam the limitless sky."
