This Tang Dynasty tea poem has the beauty of form, rhythm and implication, and is unique and exquisite among many tea poems. Formally, the whole poem skillfully uses Chinese characters to build a "pyramid" structure, which is refreshing. Rhythm, all bets on dangerous rhyme, showing superb word control skills in one go.
In a sense, images such as the bright moon, the morning glow, the Luo Zhi and the red gauze give people visual enjoyment that is gorgeous but not extravagant, colorful but not gorgeous, exquisite and beautiful. In the moral sense, "a poet loves a monk's family" and defines the principle of tea and Zen, so as to "wash away the tireless people of ancient and modern times, and you can't boast when you are drunk." Tie a knot, praise the merits of tea, turn over a new leaf for people of ancient and modern times, and work tirelessly; I can only praise when I am awake, but I can't express myself clearly when I am drunk.
The beauty of the whole poem lies in that it seems to be carefully piled up and seems to be careless; It seems to be thoughtful and seemingly handy; That is, it is like a word game and a delicate work; It is both profound and simple.
Baota poetry tea
Don
Tea.
Fragrant leaves, buds.
Poets love monks.
Grinding and carving white jade, Luo Zhihong yarn.
Stir-fry the yellow core color and turn the bowl into dust.
Invite the bright moon after night, and light the morning glow before morning.
Wash away the tireless people of ancient and modern times, and you can't boast when you are drunk.
Translation of Baota's poem Tea
Tea is divided into fragrant leaves and tender buds; Poets like the elegance of tea, while monks value the exquisiteness of tea; When making tea, a delicate tea mill and a red fine gauze tea sieve are used; Stir-fry soft and beautiful yellow, and then carefully skim off the tea powder; Soak a cup with the bright moon in the middle of the night and laugh at the sunrise in the morning; People have been drinking tea for a long time. Tea can not only refresh the mind, eliminate fatigue, but also relieve alcohol. It is really a good product.
