《核舟记》原文

《核舟记》

余幼时，尝闻先君言：“吾家旧有核舟一，长可二尺，阔可三寸，舟首尾皆刻，舟中人物、器物、楼台、树木，无不毕具。”余问：“何为核舟？”先君曰：“核舟者，舟之微也，以核为之，故曰核舟。”余闻而异之,遂求而观之。

舟中人物，或坐或立，或笑或哭，或歌或舞，无不神态生动；舟中器物，杯盘狼藉，酒菜杂陈，宛若人间烟火；楼台树木，高下错落，曲折有致，如画中景，余观之，叹曰：“此舟之妙，非人力所能为也！”

《核舟记》译文

When I was young, I often heard my father say, “Our family used to possess a miniature boat carved from nuts, measuring two feet in length and three inches in width. Both the bow and stern of the boat were intricately carved, and within the boat, all the figures, objects, buildings, and trees were perfectly detailed.” I asked, “What do you call a miniature boat carved from nuts?” My father replied, “A miniature boat carved from nuts is a tiny boat made from nuts, hence the name ‘miniature boat carved from nuts.’” Upon hearing this, I was greatly intrigued and eagerly sought to see it.

The figures in the boat were either seated or standing, laughing or crying, singing or dancing, all with lifelike expressions. The objects in the boat were scattered about, cups and plates lying around, with food and drinks strewn across, as if it were a bustling scene from everyday life. The buildings and trees inside were arranged in a picturesque manner, with some towering and some low, winding and charming, like a scene from a painting. Upon observing this, I exclaimed, “The marvel of this boat is beyond the capabilities of human hands!”
