暮從碧山下，山月隨人歸；卻顧所來徑，蒼蒼橫翠微。相攜及田家，童稚開荊扉；綠竹入幽徑，青蘿拂行衣。

033五言古詩韋應物送楊氏女

永日方慼慼，出行復悠悠。女子今有行，大江泝輕舟。

爾輩苦無恃，撫念益慈柔；幼為長所育，兩別泣不休。

對此結中腸，義往難復留。自小闕內訓，事姑貽我憂；賴茲託令門，仁卹庶無尤。貧儉誠所尚，資從豈待周！孝恭遵婦道，容止順其猷。別離在今晨，見爾當何秋？居閑始自遣，臨感忽難收。歸來視幼女，零淚緣纓流。

門前遲行跡，一一生綠苔；苔深不能掃，落葉秋風早。

八月蝴蝶來，雙飛西園草。

感此傷妾心，坐愁紅顏老。

早晚下三巴，預將書報家；相迎不道遠，直至長風沙。

手持綠玉杖，朝別黃鶴樓；五嶽尋仙不辭遠，一生好入名山遊。

廬山秀出南斗傍，屏風九疊雲錦張；影落明湖青黛光，金闕前開二峰長。銀河倒挂三石梁，香爐瀑布遙相望。迴崖沓障淩蒼蒼，翠影紅霞映朝日，鳥飛不到吳天長。

登高壯觀天地間，大江茫茫去不黃。

黃雲萬里動風色，白波九道流雪山。

好為廬山謠，興因廬山發。

054七言古詩李白夢遊天姥吟留別

海客談瀛洲，煙濤微茫信難求。

越人語天姥，雲霓明滅或可睹。天姥連天向天橫，勢拔五嶽掩赤城；天臺四萬八千丈，對此欲倒東南傾。我欲因之夢吳越，一夜飛渡鏡湖月。

湖月照我影，送我至剡溪；謝公宿處今尚在，淥水蕩漾清猿啼。
腳著謝公屐，身登青雲梯。

半壁見海日，空中聞天雞。
千巖萬壑路不定，迷花倚石忽已暝。

熊咆龍吟殷巖泉，慄深林兮驚層巔。

雲青青兮欲雨，水澹澹兮生煙。

列缺霹靂，邱巒崩摧，洞天石扇，訇然中開；青冥浩蕩不見底，日月照耀金銀臺。

霓為衣兮風為馬，雲之君兮紛紛而來下；虎鼓瑟兮鸞回車。仙之人兮列如麻。

忽魂悸以魄動，怳驚起而長嗟。
惟覺時之枕席，失向來之煙霞。

世間行樂亦如此，古來萬事東流水。

別君去兮何時還？且放白鹿青崖間。

須行即騎訪名山，安能摧眉折腰事權貴，使我不得開心顏？

059七言古詩岑參白雪歌送武判官歸京

北風捲地白草折，胡天八月即飛雪；忽如一夜春風來，千樹萬樹梨花開。散入珠簾濕羅幕，狐裘不煖錦衾薄。

將軍角弓不得控，都護鐵衣冷猶著。

瀚海闌干百丈冰，愁雲黲淡萬里凝。

中軍置酒飲歸客，胡琴琵琶與羌笛。

紛紛暮雪下轅門，風掣紅旗凍不翻。輪臺東門送君去，去時雪滿天山路；山迴路轉不見君，雪上空留馬行處。

060七言古詩杜甫韋諷錄事宅觀曹將軍畫馬圖

國初以來畫鞍馬，神妙獨數江都王。將軍得名三十載，人間又見真乘黃。

曾貌先帝照夜白，龍池十日飛霹靂，內府殷紅瑪瑙盤，婕妤傳詔才人索。盤賜將軍拜舞歸，輕紈細綺相追飛；貴戚權門得筆跡，始覺屏障生光輝。昔日太宗拳毛騧，近時郭家獅子花。今之新圖有二馬，復令識者久歎嗟，此皆騎戰一敵萬，縞素漠漠開風沙。其餘七匹亦殊絕，迥若寒空雜煙雪；霜蹄蹴踏長楸間，馬官廝養森成列。可憐九馬爭神駿，顧視清高氣深穩。借問苦心愛者誰？後有韋諷前支盾。

憶昔巡幸新豐宮，翠花拂天來向東；騰驤磊落三萬匹，皆與此圖筋骨同。自從獻寶朝河宗，無復射蛟江水中。君不見，金粟堆前松柏裡，龍媒去盡鳥呼風。

061七言古詩杜甫丹青引贈曹霸將軍將軍魏武之子孫，於今為庶為青門；英雄割據雖已矣！文采風流今尚存。

學書初學衛夫人，但恨無過王右軍。

丹青不知老將至，富貴於我如浮雲。

開元之中常引見，承恩數上南熏殿，凌煙功臣少顏色，將軍下筆開生面。

良相頭上進賢冠，猛將腰間大羽箭。

褒公鄂公毛髮動，英姿颯爽猶酣戰。先帝天馬玉花驄，畫工如山貌不同。

是日牽來赤墀下，迥立閶闔生長風。

詔謂將軍拂絹素，意匠慘淡經營中；斯須九重真龍出，一洗萬古凡馬空。玉花卻在御榻上，榻上庭前屹相向；至尊含笑催賜金，圉人太僕皆惆悵，弟子韓幹早入室，亦能畫馬窮殊相；幹惟畫肉不畫骨，忍使驊騮氣凋喪。將軍畫善蓋有神，偶逢佳士亦寫真；即今漂泊干戈際，屢貌尋常行路人。塗窮反遭俗眼白，世上未有如公貧；但看古來盛名下，終日坎壈纏其身。

064七言古詩杜甫觀公孫大娘弟子舞劍器行并序

大歷二年十月十九日夔府別駕元持宅見臨潁李十二娘舞劍器，壯其蔚跂。問其所師，曰︰余公孫大娘弟子也。開元三載，余尚童稚，記於郾城觀公孫氏舞劍器渾脫。瀏灕頓挫，獨出冠時。自高頭宜春梨園二伎坊內人，洎外供奉，曉是舞者，聖文神武皇帝初，公孫一人而已。玉貌錦衣，況余白首！今茲弟子亦匪盛顏。既辨其由來，知波瀾莫二。撫事慷慨，聊為劍器行。昔者吳人張旭善草書書帖，數嘗於鄴縣見公孫大娘舞西河劍器，自此草書長進，豪蕩感激。即公孫可知矣！昔有佳人公孫氏，一舞劍器動四方。觀者如山色沮喪，天地為之久低昂。霍如羿射九日落，矯如群帝驂龍翔，來如雷霆收震怒，罷如江海凝清光。

絳唇珠袖兩寂寞，晚有弟子傳芬芳。臨潁美人在白帝，妙舞此曲神揚揚。

與余問答既有以，感時撫事增惋傷。先帝侍女八千人，公孫劍器初第一。五十年間似反掌，風塵澒洞昏王室。梨園子弟散如煙，女樂餘姿映寒日。
金粟堆前木已拱，瞿塘石城草蕭瑟。
玳筵急管曲復終，樂極哀來月東出。

老夫不知其所往？足繭荒山轉愁疾。

君歌聲酸辭且苦，不能聽終淚如雨。

洞庭連天九疑高，蛟龍出沒猩鼯號。

赦書一日行萬里，罪從大辟皆除死。遷者追回流者還，滌瑕蕩垢清朝班。

州家申名使家抑，坎軻祇得移荊蠻。

判司卑官不堪說，未免捶楚塵埃間。

同時輩流多上道，天路幽險難追攀。
君歌且休聽我歌，我歌今與君殊科。

五嶽祭秩皆三公，四方環鎮嵩當中。

我來正逢秋雨節，陰氣晦昧無清風。

潛心默禱若有應，豈非正直能感通？

須臾靜掃眾峰出，仰見突兀撐青空。紫蓋連延接天柱，石廩騰擲堆祝融。

069七言古詩韓愈石鼓歌

張生手持石鼓文，勸我識作石鼓歌。

少陵無人謫仙死，才薄將奈石鼓何？周綱淩遲四海沸，宣王憤起揮天戈；大開明堂受朝賀，諸侯劍佩鳴相磨。蒐于岐陽騁雄俊，萬里禽獸皆遮羅。鐫功勒成告萬世，鑿石作鼓隳嵯峨。從臣才藝咸第一，揀選撰刻留山阿。雨淋日炙野火燎，鬼物守護煩撝呵。公從何處得紙本？毫髮盡備無差訛。
辭嚴義密讀難曉，字體不類隸與蝌。

年深豈免有缺畫？快劍砍斷生蛟鼉。

鸞翔鳳翥眾仙下，珊瑚碧樹交枝柯。金繩鐵索鎖鈕壯，古鼎躍水龍騰梭。陋儒編詩不收入，二雅褊迫無委蛇。
  孔子  (《唐诗三百首》人物)西行不到秦，掎摭星宿遺羲娥。

嗟予好古生苦晚，對此涕淚雙滂沱。

憶昔初蒙博士徵，其年始改稱元和。

故人從軍在右輔，為我度量掘臼科。濯冠沐浴告祭酒，如此至寶存豈多？

氈包席裹可立致，十鼓祇載數駱駝。

薦諸太廟比郜鼎，光價豈止百倍過。

聖恩若許留太學，諸生講解得切磋。

觀經鴻都尚填咽，坐見舉國來奔波。剜苔剔蘚露節角，安置妥帖平不頗。

大廈深簷與蓋覆，經歷久遠期無佗。

中朝大官老於事，詎肯感激徒媕婀？

牧童敲火牛礪角，誰復著手為摩挲？日銷月鑠就埋沒，六年西顧空吟哦。

羲之俗書趁姿媚，數紙尚可博白鵝。

繼周八代爭戰罷，無人收拾理則那。

方今太平日無事，柄任儒術崇丘軻。

安能以此上論列？願借辯口如懸河。石鼓之歌止於此，嗚呼吾意其蹉跎。

071七言古詩  白居易  (《唐诗三百首》人物)長恨歌

漢皇重色思傾國，御宇多年求不得。

楊家有女初長成，養在深閨人未識。

天生麗質難自棄，一朝選在君王側；回眸一笑百媚生，六宮粉黛無顏色。

春寒賜浴華清池，溫泉水滑洗凝脂；侍兒扶起嬌無力，始是新承恩澤時。

雲鬢花顏金步搖，芙蓉帳暖度春宵；春宵苦短日高起，從此君王不早朝。承歡侍宴無閑暇，春從春遊夜專夜。後宮佳麗三千人，三千寵愛在一身。金星妝成嬌侍夜，玉樓宴罷醉和春。姊妹弟兄皆列士，可憐光彩生門戶；遂令天下父母心，不重生男重生女。

驪宮高處入青雲，仙樂風飄處處聞；緩歌慢舞凝絲竹，盡日君王看不足。漁陽鼙鼓動地來，驚破霓裳羽衣曲。

九重城闕煙塵生，千乘萬騎西南行。

翠華搖搖行復止，西出都門百餘里。
六軍不發無奈何？宛轉蛾眉馬前死。
花鈿委地無人收，翠翹金雀玉搔頭。

君王掩面救不得，回看血淚相和流。

黃埃散漫風蕭索，雲棧縈紆登劍閣。峨嵋山下少人行，旌旗無光日色薄。

蜀江水碧蜀山青，聖主朝朝暮暮情。
行宮見月傷心色，夜雨聞鈴腸斷聲。

天旋地轉迴龍馭，到此躊躇不能去。

馬嵬坡下泥土中，不見玉顏空死處。

君臣相顧盡霑衣，東望都門信馬歸。
歸來池苑皆依舊，太液芙蓉未央柳；芙蓉如面柳如眉，對此如何不淚垂？春風桃李花開日，秋雨梧桐葉落時。西宮南內多秋草，落葉滿階紅不掃。梨園子弟白髮新，椒房阿監青娥老。

夕殿螢飛思悄然，孤燈挑盡未成眠。
遲遲鐘鼓初長夜，耿耿星河欲曙天。
鴛鴦瓦冷霜華重，翡翠衾寒誰與共？

悠悠生死別經年，魂魄不曾來入夢。臨邛道士鴻都客，能以精誠致魂魄；為感君王輾轉思，遂教方士殷勤覓。排空馭氣奔如電，升天入地求之遍；上窮碧落下黃泉，兩處茫茫皆不見。忽聞海上有仙山，山在虛無縹緲間；樓閣玲瓏五雲起，其中綽約多仙子。中有一人字太真，雪膚花貌參差是。金闕西廂叩玉扃，轉教小玉報雙成。聞道漢家天子使，九華帳裡夢魂驚。

攬衣推枕起徘徊，珠箔銀屏迤邐開，雲鬢半偏新睡覺，花冠不整下堂來。風吹仙袂飄飄舉，猶似霓裳羽衣舞；玉容寂寞淚闌干，梨花一枝春帶雨。含情凝睇謝君王，一別音容兩渺茫。昭陽殿裡恩愛絕，蓬萊宮中日月長。

回頭下望人寰處，不見長安見塵霧。

唯將舊物表深情，鈿合金釵寄將去。釵留一股合一扇，釵擘黃金合分鈿；但教心似金鈿堅，天上人間會相見。

臨別殷勤重寄詞，詞中有誓兩心知。七月七日長生殿，夜半無人私語時。

在天願作比翼鳥，在地願為連理枝。

天長地久有時盡，此恨綿綿無絕期。

072七言古詩白居易琵琶行并序元和十年，予左遷九江郡司馬。明年秋，送客湓浦口，聞船中夜彈琵琶者，聽其音，錚錚然有京都聲；問其人，本長安倡女，嘗學琵琶於穆曹二善才。年長色衰，委身為賈人婦。遂命酒，使快彈數曲，曲罷憫然。自敘少小時歡樂事，今漂淪憔悴，轉徙於江湖間。予出官二年恬然自安，感斯人言，是夕，始覺有遷謫意，因為長句歌以贈之，凡六百一十六言，命曰琵琶行。
　潯言江頭夜送客，楓葉荻花秋瑟瑟。

主人下馬客在船，舉酒欲飲無管絃。
醉不成歡慘將別，別時茫茫江浸月。

忽聞水上琵琶聲，主人忘歸客不發。

尋聲暗問彈者誰？琵琶聲停欲語遲。移船相近邀相見，添酒回燈重開宴。

千呼萬喚始出來，猶抱琵琶半遮面。
轉軸撥絃三兩聲，未成曲調先有情。

絃絃掩抑聲聲思，似訴平生不得志。

低眉信手續續彈，說盡心中無限事。

輕攏慢撚抹復挑，初為霓裳後六么。大絃嘈嘈如急雨，小絃切切如私語。
嘈嘈切切錯雜彈，大珠小珠落玉盤。

間官鶯語花底滑，幽咽泉流水下灘。水泉冷澀絃凝絕，凝絕不通聲漸歇。

別有幽愁暗恨生，此時無聲勝有聲。

銀瓶乍破水漿迸，鐵騎突出刀鎗鳴。
曲終收撥當心畫，四絃一聲如裂帛。
東船西舫悄無言，唯見江心秋月白。

沈吟放撥插絃中，整頓衣裳起斂容。自言本是京城女，家在蝦蟆陵下住。

十三學得琵琶成，名屬教坊第一部。曲罷曾教善才服，妝成每被秋娘妒，五陵年少爭纏頭，一曲紅綃不知數。鈿頭銀篦擊節碎，血色羅裙翻酒汙。

今年歡笑復明年，秋月春風等閑度。

弟走從軍阿姨死，暮去朝來顏色故。
門前冷落車馬稀，老大嫁作商人婦。
商人重利輕別離，前月浮梁買茶去。

去來江口守空船，繞船月明江水寒。

夜深忽夢少年事，夢啼妝淚紅闌干，我聞琵琶已嘆息，又聞此語重唧唧。

同是天涯淪落人，相逢何必曾相識。

我從去年辭帝京，謫居臥病潯陽城。

潯陽地僻無音樂，終歲不聞絲竹聲。

住近湓江地低濕，黃蘆苦竹繞宅生。
其間旦暮聞何物，杜鵑啼血猿哀鳴。

春江花朝秋月夜，往往取酒還獨傾。

豈無山歌與村笛？嘔啞嘲哳難為聽。

今夜聞君琵琶語，如聽仙樂耳暫明。莫辭更坐彈一曲，為君翻作琵琶行。感我此言良久立，卻坐促絃絃轉急。
淒淒不似向前聲，滿座重聞皆掩泣。

座中泣下誰最多，江州司馬青衫濕。

073七言古詩李商隱韓碑

元和天子神武姿，彼何人哉軒與羲，誓將上雪列聖恥，坐法宮中朝四夷。淮西有賊五十載，封狼生貙貙生羆；不據山河據平地，長戈利矛日可麾。

帝得聖相相曰度，賊斫不死神扶持。
腰懸相印作都統，陰風慘澹天王旗。
愬武古通作牙爪，儀曹外郎載筆隨。
行軍司馬智且勇，十四萬眾猶虎貔。
入蔡縛賊獻太廟。功無與讓恩不訾。帝曰汝度功第一，汝從事愈宜為辭。

愈拜稽首蹈且舞，金石刻畫臣能為。古者世稱大手筆，此事不係於職司。
當仁自古有不讓，言訖屢頷天子頤。

公退齋戒坐小閣，濡染大筆何淋漓。

點竄堯典舜典字，塗改清廟生民詩。
文成破體書在紙，清晨再拜鋪丹墀。
表曰臣愈昧死上，詠神聖功書之碑。碑高三丈字如斗，負以靈鼇蟠以螭。

句奇語重喻者少，讒之天子言其私。

長繩百尺拽碑倒。麤沙大石相磨治。公之斯文若元氣，先時已入人肝脾。

湯盤孔鼎有述作，今無其器存其辭。

嗚呼聖皇及聖相，相與烜赫流淳熙。

公之斯文不示後，曷與三五相攀追？願書萬本誦萬過，口角流沫右手胝；傳之七十有二代，以為封禪玉檢明堂基。

校尉羽書飛瀚海，單于獵火照狼山。

山川蕭條極邊土，胡騎憑陵雜風雨。

戰士軍前半死生，美人帳下猶歌舞。

大漠窮秋塞草衰，孤城落日鬥兵稀。

身當恩遇常輕敵，力盡關山未解圍。鐵衣遠戍辛勤久，玉筋應啼別離後。

少婦城南欲斷腸，征人薊北空回首。

邊庭飄颻那可度？絕域蒼茫更何有？殺氣三時作陣雲，寒聲一夜傳刁斗。相看白刃血紛紛，死節從來豈顧勳。君不見沙場征戰苦？至今猶憶李將軍。

076樂府王維洛陽女兒行

洛陽女兒對門居，纔可容顏十五餘；良人玉勒乘驄馬，侍女金盤膾鯉魚。畫閣朱樓盡相望，紅桃綠柳垂簷向。羅帷送上七香車，寶扇迎歸九華帳。狂夫富貴在青春，意氣驕奢劇季倫。

自憐碧玉親教舞，不惜珊瑚持與人。

春窗曙滅九微火，九微片片飛花璅。

戲罷曾無理曲時，妝成祇是薰香坐。

城中相識盡繁華，日夜經過趙李家。

誰憐越女顏如玉？貧賤江頭自浣紗。

少年十五二十時，步行奪得胡馬騎。

射殺山中白額虎，肯數鄴下黃鬚兒。一身轉戰三千里，一劍曾當百萬師。漢兵奮迅如霹靂，虜騎崩騰畏蒺藜。

衛青不敗由天幸，李廣無功緣數奇。自從棄置便衰朽，世事蹉跎成白首。

昔時飛箭無全目，今日垂楊生左肘。路旁時賣故侯瓜，門前學種先生柳。

蒼茫古木連窮巷，寥落寒山對虛牖。

誓令疏勒出飛泉，不似潁川空使酒。
賀蘭山下陣如雲，羽檄交馳日夕聞。

節使三河募年少，詔書五道出將軍。

試拂鐵衣如雪色，聊持寶劍動星文。願得燕弓射大將，恥令越甲鳴吾君。莫嫌舊日雲中守，猶堪一戰取功勳。

漁舟逐水愛山春，兩岸桃花夾古津。

坐看紅樹不知遠，行盡青溪不見人。
山口潛行始隈隩，山開曠望旋平陸。

遙看一處攢雲樹，近入千家散花竹。

樵客初傳漢姓名，居人未改秦衣服。

居人共住武陵源，還從物外起田園。

月明松下房櫳靜，日出雲中雞犬喧。

驚聞俗客爭來集，競引還家問都邑。

平明閭巷掃花開，薄暮漁樵乘水入。

初因避地去人間，及至成仙遂不還。

峽裡誰知有人事，世中遙望空雲山。

不疑靈境難聞見，塵心未盡思鄉縣。

出洞無論隔山水，辭家終擬長游衍。

自謂經過舊不迷，安知峰壑今來變。

當時只記入山深，青溪幾曲到雲林？

春來遍是桃花水，不辨仙源何處尋？

蜀道之難難於上青天！

蠶叢及魚鳧，開國何茫然。爾來四萬八千歲，始與秦塞通人煙。

西當太白有鳥道，可以橫絕峨眉巔。

地崩山摧壯士死，然後天梯石棧方鉤連。

上有六龍回日之高標，下有衝波逆折之迴川。

黃鶴之飛尚不得，猿猱欲度愁攀援。

青泥何盤盤，百步九折縈巖巒，捫參歷井仰脅息，以手撫膺坐長歎。

問君西遊何時還？畏途巉巖不可攀。但見悲鳥號古木，雄飛雌從繞林間；又聞子規啼，夜月愁空山。

蜀道之難難於上青天！

使人聽此凋朱顏。

連峰去天不盈尺，枯松倒掛倚絕壁。

飛湍瀑流爭喧豗，砯崖轉石萬壑雷。

其險也如此！嗟爾遠道之人，胡為乎來哉？劍閣崢嶸而崔嵬，一夫當關，萬夫莫開；所守或匪親，化為狼與豺，朝避猛虎，夕避長蛇，磨牙吮血，殺人如麻。錦城雖云樂，不如早還家。

093五言律詩駱賓王在獄詠蟬并序

余禁所禁垣西，是法廳事也。有古槐數株焉，雖生意可知，同殷仲文之古樹，而聽訟斯在，即周召伯之甘棠。每至夕照低陰，秋蟬疏引，發聲幽息，有切嘗聞；豈人心異於曩時，將蟲響悲於前聽？嗟乎！聲以動容，德以象賢，故潔其身也，稟君子達人之高行；蛻其皮也，有仙都羽化之靈姿。候時而來，順陰陽之數；應節為變，審藏用之機。有目斯開，不以道昏而昧其視；有翼自薄，不以俗厚而易其真。吟喬樹之微風，韻資天縱；飲高秋之墜露，清畏人知。僕失路艱虞，遭時徽纆，不哀傷而自怨，未搖落而先衰。聞蟪蛄之流聲，悟平反之已奏；見螳螂之抱影，怯危機之未安。感而綴詩，貽諸知己。庶情沿物應，哀弱羽之飄零；道寄人知，憫餘聲之寂寞。非謂文墨，取代幽憂云爾。
西路蟬聲唱，南冠客思侵。

那堪玄鬢影，來對白頭吟。
露重飛難進，風多響易沉。

無人信高潔，誰為表予心。
