The ancient poems describing the winter solstice are as follows:
1. "Winter Solstice" by Bai Juyi of the Tang Dynasty
There are three hundred and sixty days in the year, and three hundred days in one day Fifty points.
The winter solstice is here again this year. In ancient times, farmers planned their farming season.
The four seasons can be clearly counted, and a year is divided into four periods.
The winter solstice has long nights and the longest days. Long nights and short days lead to cold weather.
This poem describes the unique nature of the winter solstice through the changes in numbers, emphasizing the long darkness and short daylight of the winter solstice night, expressing concern for farming and deep feelings about the winter solstice.
2. Song Dynasty·Lu You's "Eighty Ancient Songs"
An old man suspected that it was Huang Gonggui, who could cure his short-term dream of Gaotai.
The Qing Emperor Wang Liang saw few people, and the young boy behind his elbow smiled and said nothing.
Summer has withered and winter has come. Who can count the seats full and miserable?
It would be better for Mr. Cao to go to General Li, but Mr. Jia would go there in his dream.
This poem uses allusions and fables to describe the image of the fairy boy and Huang Gonggui that the old man met in his dream, expressing his thoughts on the flow of time and the long years. Through the alternation of late summer and winter solstice, it conveys the deep sigh of the change of years and the dream-like situation of people and things.
3. "Winter Solstice" by Su Shi of the Song Dynasty
Recalling the time when I was young and spending time with children, Feng Tang suffered from the cold night.
The dream returns to the mountain and the pillow is green, the spring is moving and the water is windy.
The garden is full of flowers and trees, and I want to go to the Lotus Tower.
When the scenery is moving at dawn, I would rather know the beautiful orchids.
Su Shi started with the sentence "Feng Tang's bitter night is cold", expressing the severe cold on the night of the winter solstice. Then the author's nostalgia is depicted with "Dream Back on the Mountain and Pillow of Green". Through the depiction of flowers, trees and spring, he expresses his yearning for warmth and beauty, and shows his pursuit of a better life.
4. Song Dynasty·Xin Qiji's "The Green Jade Case·Yuan Xi"
On the night of Yuan Dynasty last year, the lights in the flower market were as bright as day.
The moon is above the willow branches, and people are meeting after dusk.
On the Lantern Festival this year, the moon and lights are still the same.
I can’t see the person from last year, and the sleeves of my spring shirt are filled with tears.
This poem describes the contrast between the two Yuan nights. Through the description of the moon, the flower market, and the people, it expresses the theme of the changing of years and the passage of time. Through "tears full of spring shirt sleeves", it expresses the various aspects of life and expresses the flow of time and the changes in personnel.
Through exquisite language and profound artistic conception, these ancient poems convey the ancients' unique perceptions of the winter solstice, and show their deep thinking about the passage of time and the changes in life. These ancient poems describing the winter solstice not only express sensitivity to natural changes, but also express thoughts about life and emotions, leaving precious literary heritage for future generations.
