【英譯唐詩】尋隱者不遇 (A fruitless search of an eremite)

尋隱者不遇     A fruitless search of an eremite

 

賈島                Dao Jia

 

鬆下問童子，  A little servant was inquired under a giant pine,

言師采藥去。  "My master went out to gather herbs",he answered.

隻在此山中，  "He is on this mountain",

雲深不知處。  "but I don’t know where he is due to heavy cloud."
