《讀老子》

[edit]

唐·白居易

言者不知知者默, 此語吾聞于老君。 若道老君是知者, 緣何自著五千文。

白話文譯文

[edit]

說話的人並不知道,有智慧的人卻不說話,這句話是我聽老君說的。 如果老君是有智慧的人,為何自己還寫下五千多字。

English translation

[edit]

Those who speak do not know, and those who are wise do not speak. This is what I heard from Laojun(老子). If Laojun is a wise man, why did he write more than 5,000 words of scripture(Tao Te Ching 道德經)?
