Song Dynasty: Cheng Hao
Nothing is idle when idle, nothing is red when sleeping. Everything is complacent when you are quiet, and you are happy when you are with people at any time.
Tao passes through the material world and thinking enters the abnormal situation. Wealth is not slutty, poverty is not happy, and men are heroes here.
Translation:
There is nothing uncomfortable and restless when the days are idle. Often wake up, the east window has been flushed by the sun. You can enjoy nature by looking at everything, and people have the same interest in the beautiful scenery all year round.
Truth permeates all tangible and intangible things between heaven and earth, and thoughts permeate the changing situation. Such a man is a hero as long as he can be rich but not arrogant and extravagant, and poor and happy.
2. "Crossing Zero Ding Yang"
Song Dynasty: Wen Tianxiang
Once the effort comes, there will be fewer stars around. The mountains and rivers are broken and the wind is floating, and life experiences are ups and downs.
The beach of fear says fear, and there is a sigh in the ocean. Who hasn't died since ancient times? Take the heart of Dan and follow history.
Translation:
Looking back, I experienced a lot of hardships when I entered the imperial examination in my early years, and now it has been four years since the end of the war. The country is in peril like catkins in a strong wind, and life is ups and downs like rootless duckweeds drifting in the rain. I'm still afraid of the fiasco at Fear Beach. It's a pity that I'm alone in Yuan Lu. Who can live forever since ancient times? I want to leave a patriotic heart that reflects history.
3. "Two poems about going to the garrison to show your family. The second part "
Qing Dynasty: Lin Zexu
If you are weak and mentally exhausted for a long time, you will be exhausted. Based on this belief, I will serve my country at all costs, even at the expense of my own life, whether I am lucky or unlucky.
Exile is just the kindness of the king, and it is just right to keep humble and die. The play tells a story with his wife, trying to destroy the old scalp.
Translation:
I feel exhausted because of my low ability and heavy responsibility. Taking on heavy responsibilities again and again, with my aging body and mediocre talent, is definitely untenable. If it is good for my country, I will risk my life. If you are lucky, can you avoid troubles and face difficulties? I was exiled to Yili because of your kindness and generosity.
I'd better leave the army and become a mature soldier. I joked with my wife in Zhi Lin, Dongpo that Song Zhenzong called Yang Pu and Su Dongpo to prison, saying that you might as well recite the poem "This time ruined the old scalp" to see me off.
4. Cold Chrysanthemum/Painting Chrysanthemum
Song Dynasty: Zheng Sixiao
Flowers can't bloom, and independent fences are not poor.
It is better to hold incense in the branches and wait for death than to blow it into the north wind.
Translation:
You are open in autumn and never associate with flowers. Alone by the sparse fence, your sentiment and interest have not diminished. I would rather die in the branches than in the cold north wind!
This picture poem entitled "Cold Chrysanthemum" embodies Zheng Sixiao's thought, character and mind. )
5. Mo Mei
Yuan Dynasty: Wang Mian
The first tree in my Xiyan Lake is light ink.
Don't praise the good color, as long as it is clear and full of dried Kun.
Translation:
There is a plum tree in the West Wild Goose Lake near my home, and the blooming plum blossoms are all covered with faint ink marks. Don't need others to praise its beautiful color, just need the fragrance of plum blossoms to diffuse between heaven and earth.
The poet praises Mo Mei and Dont Ask For Help, but he just wants to leave the fragrance of virtue on earth. In fact, he used plum as a metaphor to express his attitude towards life and his noble sentiment of not being kitsch. )
