Only the lotus flower is matched with red flowers and green leaves. The lotus leaf has a roll of Shu, and the lotus flower has a bloom, which is so perfect and natural.
Lotus and lotus leaf shine on each other for a long time. When the lotus leaf falls, it withers. What a pity!
-Li Shangyin's "Give the Lotus"
Li Shangyin was a famous poet in Tang Dynasty. His poems are famous for their beauty. He often uses poetic language with allusions or vague artistic conception to express his unique views and profound thoughts. His poems give people an obscure and tortuous feeling, especially his Untitled. However, his "Give Lotus" is by no means like this. The poet described the beauty of flowers and leaves in simple and clear language, giving people a beautiful impression. As soon as "Give Lotus" came up, it showed a secular phenomenon: when it comes to flowers and leaves, people generally treat them separately, appreciate flowers and care for them, but ignore leaves, so they put them in a golden basin, take care of them carefully, take a bath for a day, but ignore them and let them wither. Therefore, the twin friendship and brotherhood of lotus leaf and lotus flower were grandly launched: the green lotus leaf, which just showed its sharp corner, was slowly rolled and stretched; The pink lotus blooms gradually, blooming from the bud like an arrow. They open and close and roll, swaying naturally and extremely beautiful, with red leaves and green flowers. Its scenery is beautiful. The poet sincerely praised: "This flower and this leaf often set each other off, reducing the red and killing people." How he hopes that the flowers will grow green and flourish until the green ones are reduced and the red ones are gone, and they will still shine. From this description, we can see that the lotus is really different. They help each other and reflect each other. They are unique among the flowers and show their unique charm. Flowers and leaves in the world cannot be compared. Flowers are offered in golden pots, and leaves return to dust.
Only the green lotus leaf is lined with the red lotus, whether it is curly or comfortable.
Flowers and leaves set each other off for a long time, the emerald color gradually decreased, and the red color gradually faded, which was really sad.
Flowers and leaves are different in the world, and most people always value flowers rather than leaves.
Only the green lotus leaves line the unopened lotus flowers. Whether it is open or closed, it is natural.
Lotus and lotus leaves set each other off and stayed together for a long time until the lotus leaves decreased and withered, which was extremely sad.
Appreciate that this is also a poem with profound ideological content. There is a long-standing folk proverb in China: "Although the lotus is good, it must be supported by green leaves." Li Shangyin's seven-character ancient poems vividly show valuable ideas similar to this proverb. The author says that most people always attach importance to flowers rather than leaves. The flower was planted in a golden basin, but the leaves made it fall to the ground and turned into dust. However, the red flowers and green leaves of lotus are very harmonious. They reflected each other for a long time, until the green leaves decreased and the red flowers withered, which made people feel very sad. In this way, the fate of the lotus leaf is written, which is very emotional.
The first two sentences are "flowers in the world have nothing to do with leaves, and flowers go into the golden basin for dust."
The poet said that flowers and leaves in the world are incomparable. Flowers are dedicated to golden pots, and fallen leaves return to their roots.
At the back, "only the green lotus and the red lotus are innocent."
In other words, only the green lotus color is lined with the red lotus, whether it is curly or comfortable.
The last two sentences "This flower has a corresponding leaf length, reducing the deficit and killing people."
It means that flowers and leaves set each other off and become interesting. Over time, when the emerald color decreases and the red color fades, it is really heartbreaking.
The first two sentences of this poem describe two different fates of flowers and leaves. Flowers and leaves in the world are born from the same root, with the same branch length, colorful, varied, unique and fragrant. Once recognized by a discerning person. The transplant basin is well taken care of. But the green leaves were abandoned and fell to the ground, turning to dust in the biting wind and rain. Flowers into the pot, leaves like dust, this is the fate of flowers and leaves in the world. These two sentences always describe the happiness of flowers and the misfortune of leaves, and their "incoherence" reflects the value of the unique quality of lotus.
The word "only" is different from the same, and the following four sentences are derived from it, which are translated into the stretching and shrinking of lotus leaves, the opening and closing of lotus flowers, and all kinds of verve, natural and unadorned. The ancients used lotus flowers to describe many virtues of gentlemen, and borrowed the characteristics of lotus flowers to compare and praise the outstanding independent character of noble and refined, not flattering the world. But this poem praises the "naive" quality of the lotus leaf, in order to praise the virtue of sincerity but not hypocrisy. Ren Naizhen is not only about flowers, but also about people. Write human nature in a colorful and novel way.
The last two sentences go deep into the "innocence" of lotus. The red flowers and green leaves of the lotus flower reflect each other. Even in the decline of red, when the world is sad, we still don't dislike each other. If the first two sentences write lotus "Ren Naizhen", it is important to show * * * glory; Then, the "long contrast" between these two sentences is mainly manifested in the same decline. These four poems complement each other and inherit from each other, which completely shows the unswerving quality of Lotus from both positive and negative aspects.
