Entry Text
進士成汝學。號雙泉。自少攻詩。而爲造化兒所困。年六十。不得一命。昔也。其警句曰。草露蛩聲濕。林風鳥夢危。寒樹鳥無夢。暗窓蟲有聲。缺月棲深樹。寒禽穴破籬。雨意偏侵夢。秋光欲染詩。其淸苦如此
진사 성여학은 호가 쌍천이다. 어려서부터 시에 전념하였으나 조화옹에게 곤욕을 당하여 육십이 되도록 벼슬하지 못하였다. 예전에 그의 경구에, "", "", "", ""라 하였으니 그 청고함이 이와 같았다.
Literary Licentiate (chinsa) Sŏng Yŏhak’s 成汝學 (16th century) sobriquet was Ssangch’ŏn (Twin Springs). He studied poetry from young age. But neglected by the Creator, at age sixty, he had not received a single official assignment. It is a pity. His striking verses (kyŏnggu) read, 草露蛩聲濕林風鳥夢危 On dewy grasses, crickets sound damp.In windy forests, birds dream danger. 寒樹鳥無夢暗窗蟲有聲 On the cold trees, birds have no dreams.By the dark windows, insects make sound. 缺月棲深樹寒禽穴破籬 The waning moon perches on a thick tree.Cold birds huddle up on a worn-out fence. 雨意偏侵夢秋光欲染詩 An approaching rain slowly encroaches on my dream.The colors of autumn are going to dye my poem. His poems were clear and bitter (ch’ŏnggo) like these.
