The poem chants "Returning to the Wild Goose". Wild geese are migratory birds. They fly to the south for winter in late autumn and fly back to the north in warm spring. The ancients thought that Hongyan could not fly to the south of Hengyang, and the north of Hengyang was Xiaoxiang area. Grasping this point, the poet has the habit of migratory birds returning to the north regardless of spring warmth, as if exploring deep-seated reasons. At the beginning, he suddenly asked: the downstream of Xiaoxiang is beautiful and rich in products. Why did you leave such a good place and come back to the north?
The poet asked strangely, and Hongyan answered even more strangely: Xiaoxiang area has beautiful scenery and rich food, and could have lived permanently. However, Xiangling's drums and piano sounds in the moonlit night, and the tones that pop up from the twenty-five strings, are so sad and sad! My feeling is really unbearable and I have to fly back to the north.
Qian Qi took the Jinshi Examination, and his poems were named "Xiang Poetry". One of his poems has been handed down to this day, which is regarded as a masterpiece among exam-oriented poems. Xiangling in the middle (said to be Shundi's concubine) plays the pipa because she misses Shundi, giving out bitter tones such as resentment and longing. At the end, "no one sees the end of the song, and the peak on the river is green" is full of charm. It is said that this four-line poem, followed by Xiangse, is the reason why Hongyan returned to the north. The idea is novel, the imagination is rich, the brushwork is ingenious, the lyric is euphemistic, the geese are anthropomorphic, the questions are answered, the meaning is intentional and thought-provoking, which opens up unlimited methods for poetry.
Qian Qi, a native of Xing Wu (now Zhejiang), has been an official in Chang 'an and Gyeonggi since he took office. When he saw the autumn geese flying south, he wrote the poem "Send the geese": "Autumn is crisp, Wan Li is quiet, and the south is lonely ... Looking far away, homesickness is everywhere." This song "Returning to Wild Goose", also written in the north, is about the spring geese returning from the south.
The ancients believed that the autumn geese flying south would not cross Yan Hui Peak in Hengshan Mountain, Hunan Province. They flew to the north of the peak, settled in the lower reaches of Xiangjiang River, and flew back to the north after winter. According to this understanding, the author thinks of Xiangjiang River, the habitat of wild geese before their return, and the myth that Xiangjiang Goddess is good at playing drums and playing piano from Xiangjiang River. Then, according to the song Fuck Wild Goose, the author links playing drums and playing piano with the return of wild geese, thus forming the whimsy in the poem.
According to this artistic conception, the author deliberately expressed his incomprehension about the return of wild geese to the north, contrary to the usual practice of poets in past dynasties who took it for granted. As soon as he wrote it, he used two rhetorical questions: "Why did Xiaoxiang wait for her return?" The water is green and the moss on both sides is bright. "Why did Gui Yan leave the beautiful Xiangjiang River and come back?" ? This sudden inquiry immediately led the reader's thinking to the track arranged by the poet-ignoring the habits of geese and exploring the reasons for their return.
In the third and fourth sentences, the author replied on behalf of Yan: "Twenty-five strings play jathyapple, and it is difficult to settle grievances." Xiangjiang Goddess drums (25 strings) on a moonlit night. The piano was so sad that the geese could not bear to listen any longer before flying back to the north.
In this way, with the help of rich imagination and beautiful myths, the poet showed the readers the desolate realm of Xiang God, and deliberately created an affectionate and musical image of a wild goose. However, why are the drums and harps of Xiang gods written by poets so bleak? Why are the geese so "unable to clear their grievances"? In order to understand the poet's thoughts and feelings, let's take a look at his masterpiece Xiang Se. In that poem, the author used the poem "Cangwu came to complain" to point out that Xiangshuijiang was sad because she pinned her thoughts on her husband Shun who died in Cangwu. At the same time, there is also a poem "Chu Ke is unbearable", which shows that the "Chu Ke" who was demoted to Xiangjiang River is unbearable for the sadness of sound.
Through the comparison between Xiang Se and Gui Yan, we can know that the sentence "Unfinished grievances, flying here" in Gui Yan originated from "Chu Ke is unbearable", and the author created the image of a traveling goose living in Xiangjiang River according to the Chu Ke who moved elsewhere. So, he let the traveling geese hear Xiangling's sad voice, so they were homesick and worried, and resolutely left the beautiful and rich Xiangjiang River and flew back to the north. "Although I believe in beauty rather than my native land, how can I stay less?" These two famous sayings in Fu on the Tower by Jian 'an writer RoyceWong can be used to explain the "mood" of the wild goose in the poem "Returning to the Wild Goose". It is through the description of the wild goose that the poet tactfully reveals the thoughts of officials traveling abroad. This poem is novel in conception, rich in imagination, ethereal in brushwork, lyrical and euphemistic, and full of fun. With its unique artistic features, it has become one of the famous poems about geese.
