The ancient poems of Qingming include: Qingming-Wang Yuqiao (Song Dynasty), Qingming in Su Causeway-Wu Weixin (Song Dynasty), Cold Food on the Tomb-Yang Wanli (Song Dynasty) and so on.
First, Qingming-(Song) Wangyu Bridge.
Excerpt from the original:
I have lived in Tomb-Sweeping Day without flowers and wine. Like a monk in a temple, everything is depressing and lonely for me.
Translation:
I lived in Tomb-Sweeping Day, without seeing or drinking. This lonely and miserable life, like a monk in a barren mountain temple, seems lonely to me.
Appreciate:
There is no pleasure of enjoying flowers, no feast of relatives and friends, and no nostalgia for the past brought by Qingming misty rain sweeping the grave. The poet's sense of emptiness, like a monk practicing in an empty temple in Shan Ye, is lonely, bitter, cold and depressed. Wang Yucheng's Tomb-Sweeping Day, by writing about Tomb-Sweeping Day, describes the poor life and the spirit of hard struggle of the literati in the past.
Second, "Su Causeway Qingming is a Thing"-(Song) Wu Weixin.
Excerpt from the original:
Pears bloom in the light, and wanderers go out of the city in spring.
Translation:
The West Lake, with bright spring and breezy breeze, is full of tourists.
Appreciate:
The poet's description of the festival scenes and bright scenery is not direct, but pinned on the happiness of Yinger, who is sentient and heartless, and realized his creative goal from the side.
Third, "Cold Food on the Tomb"-(Song) Yang Wanli.
Excerpt from the original:
Pear blossoms are cold food, and the season is only sad.
Translation:
Pear blossoms since the Qingming Festival. In this beautiful season, I am the only one who is sad.
Appreciate:
This ancient poem was an emotional work when Yang Wanli went to the grave to mourn. Poetry and prose emphasize the desolate scene on the road to the grave. Described lonely broken houses and dangerous bridges, which seemed to give people a sense of helplessness. So the poet wrote the feeling of "only worrying about the rest" at the end.
