贾生——李商隐

贾生
李商隐
 

宣室求贤访逐臣， 贾生才调更无伦。

可怜夜半虚前席， 不问苍生问鬼神。

JIASHENG
Li Shangyin
 

When the Emperor sought guidance from wise men, from exiles,

He found no calmer wisdom than that of young Jia

And assigned him the foremost council-seat at midnight,

Yet asked him about gods, instead of about people.
