Translation and notes
The east wind seems to know that I am going to the mountains, and it has blown off the continuous rain accumulation in the eaves.
The clear clouds floating on the ridge are like silk cotton hats, and the early morning when the tree heads rise, the bronze pheasant is hung.
The wild peach blossoms beside the short bamboo fence nodded and smiled, and the wicker beside the clear sand stream danced lightly and passionately.
People living in the western hills should be the happiest. Boiling sunflower and burning bamboo shoots will make spring ploughing.
The long journey of life is just like the long road under my feet, riding by the stream, putting down the reins and walking slowly, listening to the sound of the gurgling stream.
Even the hard-to-use materials in the party struggle in the imperial court are afraid of searching for the axe of the forest, and the tired war horse hopes to hear the call to retreat.
Enough drizzle brings joy to tea farmers, and there are my honest friends in the depths of this chaotic mountain.
how much can we know about the differences between people? Ask the farmers who work in the fields. Appreciation
These two poems are Su Shi's descriptions of beautiful and beautiful spring scenery and busy spring ploughing scene on his way to the new town. The first poem is mainly about scenery, which is full of emotion. The second song focuses on lyricism, and there are scenes in love.
In the early morning, the poet was ready to set out. The east wind is affectionate and the rain is intentional. For the poet's smooth journey, the warm east wind came to see him off and blew away the clouds; The patter of rain converged in time and the sky cleared up. "Rain accumulated on the eaves" shows that this spring rain has been raining for many days. Just as the poet "wants to travel in the mountains", the east wind blows, and the shadow in the poet's heart is also swept away, so he should regard the east wind as an old friend who understands human feelings. The first thing to look at when going out of town is the weather. Since the weather is beautiful, it determines the pleasant mood during the journey. When you come out of the door, the first thing you see is the charming morning scene: white mist hangs over the high mountain top, as if the mountain top is wearing a white silk scarf; A sunrise is rising in Ran Ran. From a distance, it looks like a round and bright bronze pheasant hanging from the treetops. Crossing the mountains and mountains, and then going forward, it is even more beautiful and full of spring. Bright peach blossoms, short bamboo hedges, graceful weeping willows, clear streams, and farmers who are busy with spring ploughing in the fields, are full of things and people, moving and static, red and green, which constitute a vivid and harmonious spring scene of farmers. The scenery of the mountain village after the rain was so fresh and beautiful that the poet's happy mood increased when he set off. Therefore, the scenery seen from his eyes is subjective and full of joy and business. The wild peach will nod with a smile, and the willow will swing and dance, which is very happy and comfortable. And the poet's imaginary "Xigeng family" is even more enjoyable: work at sunrise and rest at sunset; Take a nap in the field, women and children pay for farming; Spring planting and autumn harvest, self-reliance, are not different from Taoyuan. The description of these scenes and characters reflects the author's happy mood at that time, and also shows his dislike of worldly affairs and love for nature.
The second song follows the feeling when writing about hiking, and the situation of asking for directions when approaching the new city, which is connected with the meaning of the first song. Walking on this rugged and long mountain road, the poet thinks that the journey of life is also so rugged and long. There are mountains and rivers, and there are also dark flowers; There are evil winds and bad rains, and there are also rains that have cleared up. The poet unconsciously loosened the reins and let the horse move slowly along the gurgling mountain stream. The poet on horseback bowed his head and lost in thought. Three or four sentences are quite temperament, very distinctive and well-known. "Loose material" and "tired horse" are all the author's own conditions. The author requested to be transferred to Hangzhou as a local official because he could not stand firm in the court during the fierce struggle between the old and new parties. "Bulk materials" are what the author calls useless talents. "Searching for the forest axe" refers to the party disaster caused by the struggle between the old and new parties. Even if an official is away, the author is worried about the disaster that may come at any time. Even if it is useless, he is afraid of seeing the axe that searches for forests. The author is tired of political struggle and officialdom competition, just like the war horse that has been in the battlefield for a long time. He is already exhausted and wants to hear the rest signal of the retreat. Therefore, the author feels comfortable with his carefree life at this time. While enjoying the scenery, he thought of the joy brought to tea farmers by the rainy spring rain a few days ago, and thought of Chao Duanyou, a friend of Xincheng County magistrate who was an official and upright. Near the new town, I lost my way in my eagerness while meditating. In the last two sentences of the poem, the poet asked the farmer for directions in the countryside, and at the same time, he implicitly used the allusion in The Analects of Confucius: two hermits lived in poverty and drowned, and Confucius ordered Zi Lu to ask them for directions. The two replied, "Those who talk are all dead, but who can take advantage of it?" And instead of being a recluse, how can you be a recluse? " The poet used this as a metaphor for seclusion.

Su Shi knowing beauty my misfortune, I face my mirror with a sigh. Fortunately, fortunately, not in the beautiful face; In the end, to please who, call me grooming grooming. The bird's cry is broken, it is for the warm spring breeze; When the sun is at noon, Hankage will appear thick. I really miss, every year in the Yuexi Hu sha's female companion; Song and laughter, freely picked hibiscus. -Du Xunhe in the Tang Dynasty, Complaining about the erotic palace
