minus-square2812481591 [any, it/its]hexbear7·edit-22 months agoApparently, it's from a Poem by the Tang Era poet Cen Shen, who is Speaking to his service during the An Lushan Rebellion: 吾窃悲此生,四十幸未老。 一朝逢世乱,终日不自保。 胡兵夺长安,宫殿生野草。 伤心五陵树,不见二京道。 我皇在行军,兵马日浩浩。 胡雏尚未灭,诸将恳征讨。 昨闻咸阳败,杀戮净如扫。 积尸若丘山,流血涨丰镐。 干戈碍乡国,豺虎满城堡。 村落皆无人,萧条空桑枣。 儒生有长策,无处豁怀抱。 块然伤时人,举首哭苍昊。 早知逢世乱,少小谩读书。 悔不学弯弓,向东射狂胡。 偶从谏官列,谬向丹墀趋。 未能匡吾君,虚作一丈夫。 抚剑伤世路,哀歌泣良图。 功业今已迟,览镜悲白须。 平生抱忠义,不敢私微躯。 link
