From Su Shunqin's "Crossing Suzhou" in Song Dynasty
Original text:
East out of the door, a clear sight, rain is sunny.
Populus euphratica egrets are complacent and have feelings of being close to water and distant mountains.
Everything rises and falls by providence, and everything is bitter and vulgar.
There is no way to live in infinite beauty, and it is ok to travel in the twilight zone.
Translation:
The scenery of Panmen in the east is particularly clear, and a rustling drizzle changed the weather.
The egrets in Green Yang Yiyi are very happy, and the nearby water and the distant mountains are full of feelings.
Everything in the world has its ups and downs, which are all carried out by providence. I sigh that I have tasted the ups and downs, but I am looked down upon by ordinary people.
Unfortunately, this infinite beauty can't stay, and the passenger ship is still rushing forward at dusk.
works appreciation
This poem is a masterpiece of the poet when he was in Suzhou. The work not only depicts the beautiful scenery of Suzhou, but also expresses the poet's bold feelings.
The first couplet always describes the beautiful scenery of Suzhou and the characteristics of the scenery in the south of the Yangtze River, which are "clear water and plenty of mountains and Kong Yu" and "bright east gate, rainy and sunny". These two sentences mean that the Oriental Gate is elegant and bright. At this time, it has just rained in Mao Mao, and the sky has cleared up.
Don't say how beautiful the scenery is, say "I can't catch my eyes". The wonderful use of the word "scratch" makes people feel the new beauty of the earth, which is refreshing.
