Begonia was written by Su Shi in the seventh year of Yuanfeng, Song Shenzong (1084). The original text is: the east wind is full of glory, and the fragrant fog turns to the corridor. I was afraid that the flowers would fall asleep in the middle of the night, so I lit candles and put on red makeup.
The east wind is warm and the spring scenery is stronger. The fragrance of flowers melted in the hazy fog, and the moon had moved over the cloister in the courtyard. I'm afraid the flowers will bloom alone in the dead of night and no one will appreciate them. I specially lit candles to illuminate the beautiful face of Haitang.
The language of the whole poem is always simple and affectionate. At the time of writing this poem, although the poet has passed the age of no doubt, this poem does not give people a feeling of depression and depression. From such vivid images as "east wind", "worship of light", "fragrant fog", "high candle" and "red makeup", we can clearly feel the poet's broad-minded and natural mind.
