《示儿》是南宋著名文学家陆游的作品。本诗语言不假雕饰，直抒胸臆。表达的是诗人一生的心愿，倾注的是诗人满腔的悲慨。诗中所蕴涵和积蓄的情感是极其深厚、强烈的，但却出之以极其朴素、平淡的语言，从而自然得达到真切动人的艺术效果。

陆游---《示儿》

死去原知万事空，但悲不见九州同。
王师北定中原日，家祭毋忘告乃翁。

To My Son
(The Last Poem)
Lu You

That after death everything
Becomes void, I sure perceive;
Yet, not to have seen my country unified is still what makes me grieve.
When the King’s northward-bound Army
The Central Plains does reacquire,
In your ancestral sacrifices
Forget not tell your sire!
