Quail day
Su Shi (Northern Song Dynasty)
The forest breaks the mangosteen and hides the wall, and the cicada rot the grass in the small pond. When you turn it over, you can always see the blank bird, which smells good according to the powder.
Outside the hut, beside the ancient city, sticks and quinoa turned to the sunset. Diligence It rained all night last night, which made it cool for a day.
2. Translation
At the end of the lush forest in the distance, there are towering mountains. Near the house surrounded by bamboo forests, there is a small pond full of rotten grass, and the cicadas are dazzling. White birds fly by from time to time in the air, and the red lotus in the pond exudes fragrance.
In the countryside, near the ancient city wall, I walked slowly with a quinoa in my hand, and the sunset was in the blink of an eye. It rained a little diligently last night, and today it can make the wandering people enjoy a cool day.
3. Creative background
This word was written in the sixth year of Yuanfeng in Song Shenzong (1083). At that time, Su Shi had lived in Huangzhou (now Huanggang, Hubei) for three years. Political blows and career setbacks made him feel sad from time to time, so he had happy thoughts. As for the specific writing time of this poem, by analyzing the writing time of this poem, such as the lush bamboo, cicadas everywhere, red flowers shining on the water, and the cool weather after the rain, we can see that it was the late summer and early autumn of Yuanfeng six years ago.
4. Appreciation of works
This word was written by Dongpo when he relegated Huangzhou, which is a portrayal of his seclusion in the countryside at that time. What is revealed between the lines is the author's cheerful and leisurely mood after the rain.
The last painting depicts the scenery around the hut after the rain in late summer and early autumn. There are both long-range and close-range views; There are both dynamic and static scenes; The image is open and clear. Three or four sentences describe the scenery of color and fragrance, moving and static, and the two groups of scenery in the air and on the ground complement each other to form a beautiful picture. As the sun sets, the screenwriter of the film swims slowly with a cane in his hand, showing his isolated life. The last two sentences are the crowning touch, expressing the author's full joy of traveling on the spur of the moment.
This poem first describes the village scenery that the writer saw during his trip, and then points out that this trip and everything he saw in the poem were caused by the rain last night, expressing his joy of getting cold after the rain. This kind of writing avoids straightforward narration and is euphemistic and memorable.
