"The orioles sing on the street, and the grass smokes, and the fish scales are wrinkled by the wind and become wrinkled by the water." This is: missing the deceased
This famous sentence comes from Wang Shizhen (known as Wang Yuyang in the Qing Dynasty, a native of the Qing Dynasty). "Poem of Mourning", the whole poem: The orioles sing on the street, the grass smokes, the fish scales become wrinkled by the wind and water. The red beans in the south of the Yangtze River miss each other bitterly, and the flowers bloom every year to remember you.
This poem is a mourning poem in memory of the deceased. "The orioles sing on the road, and the fine grass smokes." In the word "mo" refers to the field road; oriole, oriole; smoke, fragrance. It can be translated as: On the field road, orioles are singing happily next to the thin and newly growing herbs.
"The fish scales are wrinkled by the wind and formed into lines by the water": The fish's scales are shining in the water, and ripples appear on the water when it is blown over.
The author of the last two sentences thinks of the people who have passed away from the beautiful scenery of crows and flying fish. Every year when he sees the beautiful scenery of flowers blooming, he thinks of the people in his past. The beautiful scenery contrasts with the sadness, and the pain of lovesickness becomes even more apparent.
Poet: Wang Shizhen "His calligraphy is as good as that of Jin people." Recent people call his calligraphy "poet's book". He is erudite and fond of antiquity, and can identify calligraphy and painting, the genus of tripod and Yi, and fine gold and stone seal carving. An outstanding poet and writer in the early Qing Dynasty, he dominated the poetry circle after Qian Qianyi. Together with Zhu Yizun, he was known as the "King of South Zhu and North". He created the theory of "Charm" in poetry theory and had a profound influence on later generations. When Mr. Qian Zhongshu talked about Yuyang's poetry theory, he also commented that "the charm is the highest state in poetry." In short, the external concreteness, rhythm and inner temperament of his poems are harmoniously unified, achieving a state of both form and spirit.
