天庆寺纳凉联句
槐屋夏阴繁，石池暑气清。
高堂瞰福田，邃宇依王城。
午磬梵呗集，夜廊酥灯明。
龛经郁金字，壁础承丹楹。
寂寂鸽栖罘，宛宛燕穿荣。
露葵炫昼艳，霞药敷阳英。
境阒便静室，心古乐高情。
逍遥祇园赏，迤逦庐社盟。
山枕藉云润，水簟凝冰轻。
饭盂给香积，袈衲褫华缨。
共欣朋簪合，敢谓词锋并。
睥睨荒草棘，横纵按林坰。
幽寻振尘鞅，雅谈忘飞觥。
鄙哉河朔饮，投愤得世名。
These are the verses of a Buddhist temple in summer:
The pagodas are covered in shade from the dense foliage of locust trees, and the stone pond reflects a refreshing coolness despite the summer heat.
From the high hall, one can overlook the fertile fields, and the deep rooms are situated against the royal city walls.
At noon, the chanting of the monks gathers around the bell, and at night, the lanterns illuminate the corridors.
The Buddhist scriptures in the shrines are written in vibrant gold characters, and the foundation rests upon pillars painted red.
Doves rest peacefully on the nets, and swallows fly gracefully through the exquisitely carved eaves.
The lotus blossoms proudly display their beauty in the day, and medicinal herbs are coated with vibrant colors by the sun's rays.
The serene environment is conducive to meditation in the quiet rooms, and with an ancient heart, one enjoys the high state of mind.
One can wander through the garden with ease, admiring the scenery and joining in the community's rituals.
The mountain is pillowed with clouds, moist and refreshing, while the water is cool on bamboo mats like ice.
Meals are served in bowls, filled with delicious food from the temple's kitchen, while one wears robes instead of fine clothing.
Together with other disciples, one is delighted to gather and dares to compare notes with them.
Overlooking the wilderness of grass and thorns, one rules over vast forests. Through profound discussions, one cleanses their soul and forgets to empty their cups.
I disdain the trivial pleasures of drinking in the northern regions, preferring to vent my emotions in writing these verses to gain renown in this world.
《天庆寺纳凉联句》是一首细腻描绘夏日天庆寺幽静清凉、僧侣生活情趣的联句诗，字里行间透露出诗人对自然美景的热爱与对心灵宁静的追求。
开篇“槐屋夏阴繁，石池暑气清”，以槐树的浓荫和石池的清凉，直接勾勒出天庆寺夏日避暑的宜人环境。槐树的茂盛为房屋提供了天然的遮阳伞，而石池中的水则仿佛能带走所有的炎热，让人瞬间感受到一丝凉爽。
接着，“高堂瞰福田，邃宇依王城”，描述了寺庙的高堂深邃，既可俯瞰寺田，又与王城相邻，既显其庄严又不失世俗的亲近感。随后，“午磬梵呗集，夜廊酥灯明”，通过午时的钟磬声和夜晚廊下酥油灯的明亮，展现了寺庙日常的宗教氛围，给人一种超脱尘世的感觉。
“龛经郁金字，壁础承丹楹”，描述了经卷藏于金漆龛中，寺庙的墙壁与柱子色彩鲜艳，细节中透露出寺庙的富丽堂皇与对佛法的尊崇。“寂寂鸽栖罘，宛宛燕穿荣”，则以鸽栖燕飞的场景，增添了寺庙的生机与和谐，动静之间，更显其静谧之美。
“露葵炫昼艳，霞药敷阳英”，以自然界中的露葵和霞药（可能指某种花卉或草药）在阳光下绽放的绚烂，比喻寺庙中人的精神生活同样丰富多彩，充满阳光和希望。“境阒便静室，心古乐高情”，指出在这样幽静的环境中，人的心境也随之变得宁静而高远，享受着精神上的愉悦。
“逍遥祇园赏，迤逦庐社盟”，诗人仿佛置身于理想中的乐园，与志同道合的朋友漫步、结盟，表达了对友情与理想生活的向往。“山枕藉云润，水簟凝冰轻”，以山枕云润、水簟冰轻形容纳凉时的舒适，进一步强化了天庆寺作为避暑胜地的形象。
“饭盂给香积，袈衲褫华缨”，描述了僧侣们简朴的生活，他们吃着寺庙供应的斋饭，身着袈裟，远离世俗的繁华与束缚。“共欣朋簪合，敢谓词锋并”，表达了诗人与友人相聚的喜悦，以及对于各自才情的谦逊态度。
最后，“睥睨荒草棘，横纵按林坰。幽寻振尘鞅，雅谈忘飞觥。鄙哉河朔饮，投愤得世名。”诗人以对比的手法，将天庆寺的清幽与世俗的喧嚣相对照，表达了对超然物外生活的向往，以及对那些追求名利之人的不屑。在这里，诗人与友人抛却尘世烦恼，沉浸于高雅的谈话之中，忘却了世俗的享乐，展现了真正的精神自由与高雅情趣。
整首诗通过细腻的描绘与深刻的寓意，不仅展现了天庆寺的自然美景与宗教氛围，更传达了诗人对心灵宁静与精神自由的追求，读来令人心旷神怡，回味无穷。
