读韩鹏杰中文和许渊冲院士英文的《道德经》笔记（12）

原文:五色令人目盲，五音令人耳聋，五味令人口爽，驰骋畋猎令人心发狂，难得之货令人行妨。是以圣人为腹不为目，故去彼取此。

翻译:The five colors may confuse the eye.

The five sounds may deafen the ear.

The five tastes may spoil the palate.

Riding and hunting may madden the mind.

Rare goods may tempt one to do evil.

Therefore the sage satisfies the belly rather than the eye.

He prefers the former to the latter.

我的读后感:不忘初心方得始终。

目盲，指的是分不清黑白，而不是说看不见。
