第 7 籤

鯉のぼり

池の底にて

龍となる

작은 못의 잉어도 가슴에 큰 강의 지도를 품고

운이 트이는 날 물결 끝에서 바람과 구름을 만나 머리를 드니

잠복한 기개가 한순간 푸른 용으로 솟으리라

A spirited carp still dreams beneath the pond

Though shallow waters hold its power in thrall

When wind and cloud converge, its brow breaks through

And scales become a dragon's as it rises tall

Cá nằm chờ vận ao sâu

Ngày kia gặp hội, bể sâu hóa rồng

Thời cơ mở lối thong dong

Công danh rộng bước, mây hồng đón đưa

ปลาคาร์พเดิมกล้าวีรชน

ติดสระตื้นสิ้นวาสนา

ครั้นโอกาสลมเมฆมาพร้อม

จะผันกายเป็นมังกรผงาดฟ้า

La carpe a dans le cœur le courage des héros ;

Pourtant l’étang l’enferme, et son heure n’est pas venue ;

Soudain son front surgit, transperçant les nuées là-haut,

Et, portée par le vent, elle devient dragon dans les cieux.

Ikan mas berenang pagi

Awan berarak menuju muara

Bakat terpendam menanti hari

Sekali tersingkap, langkah berjaya
