Qu Yuan's poems should be the shortest!

Nine Songs and Ritual Soul

Author: Qu Yuan in Pre-Qin Dynasty

Li Cheng can play drums and dance.

Daughter advocates tolerance;

Chunlan Qiuju, never ending.

Translation:

The sacrificial ceremony has been completed, the gongs and drums are banging tightly, and the flowers in the hands are dancing alternately;

A beautiful woman sings easily.

Orchids are provided in spring and chrysanthemums in autumn. In the long run, they will continue to die.

"Poem of Resting" vividly depicts a warm and grand scene of great joy to God with concise words. From the beginning, it is pointed out that "ceremony" comes first, which makes it related to the chapter of Nine Songs. After the ceremony, dense drums sounded, so they handed flowers to each other and danced alternately. Beautiful girl sings a song, gentle and leisurely.

This is a short and warm entertainment scene at the end of the sacrifice to God. Orchids are provided in spring and chrysanthemums in autumn. How people hope that a good life can be like this every month and every year. Therefore, from spring to autumn, people always tell their good wishes to the gods with seasonal flowers, and express their devotion to worship and serve God with immortal sacrifice wishes.

This poem is the shortest of the nine, almost close to the "wind" poem in the poem, but in a few words it describes the scene of a grand party so violently and grandly. With the intense drums and dance steps, the gods are happy in the game through herbs (to achieve the purpose of wishing together).

At the end of the poem, the sentence "Chunlan Qiuju, leisurely and endless" completed the overall layout of the group poem; Describe the world with vanilla beauty; Use vanilla beauty as the connecting line that runs through all poems (except National Mourning). This herb is not only the staff (form) of music score, but also the notes (content) of music score. This kind of macro thinking is unprecedented. By giving gifts to God, it shows the poet's unswerving determination to serve the country.
