Stray Birds 1 "Stray birds of summer come to my window to sing and fly away. And yellow leaves of autumn, which have no songs, flutter and fall to the ground with a sigh. "
Reading Tagore's Birds is different from reading those sad and hesitant youth stories, and also different from reading those gorgeous and bitter ancient love stories. His works have a unique sense of freshness. Reading every poem is like opening a window in the morning after a rainstorm in early summer, just like a clear Wan Li.
325 poems, everything in nature is endowed with spirituality, saying that leaves in the breeze are like fragments of thoughts, birds talk to clouds, and grass knows how to be modest and kind ... This kind of fragments of thoughts sorted out because of human nature is "the thoughts that come to mind are like a flock of wild ducks flying over the sky, and I hear their wings flying high ...", and each piece is very precious.
Between those wonderful lines, I seem to have crossed into Tagore's youth. His life when he was young was like an album that could not be turned over. Every moment is precious and beautiful. He may have made a wish to the sea, shouted at the sky, and boldly confessed to his favorite book.
In this busy world, love is the chain to convey everything, the link to maintain people's lives, the love of parents, the teaching of teachers, the support of friends and the help of passers-by ... But in any case, with a childlike innocence, face the world, face the country, face the family, face relatives, face the original self and never give up the ideal.
The world puts off its mask of vastness to its lover. It becomes small as one song, as one kiss of the eternal. "
"The night said to the sun,' In the moonlight, you gave me your love letter; On the grass, I answered tearfully. "……
Master Tagore believes that the world needs love, and life needs love more, just as he wrote the last sentence in Birds: "I believe in your love." Let this be my last word. "Reading Birds, you will find how harmonious love and being loved are.
How time flies! There is only one breakfast. Love is the steaming bread on the plate in the hands of parents, as clean as rice porridge in the bowl. They always urge me to eat quickly and eat more. I wonder, aren't they hungry? Now, I understand that it is love, clean and holy love, which will tolerate my unreasonable behavior, correct my wrong behavior, show me the most beautiful scenery and tell me the truth of being a man.
Young people are blessed to read Birds, because it is tantamount to planting the seeds of love in your life. I don't know when it will take root.
At dusk, I close my book, close my eyes and chew every character, every emotion and every delicate and precious moment with my heart.
Don't be eager to achieve success in reading, but understand the profound meaning in the original text-love is close to the eyebrows and close to the lips.
Thinking about Birds 2 Birds consist of 105 poems. Every poem has only two or three short sentences, but in the dark, it quietly lights up something for us. In these short poems full of inspiration and thinking, Tagore showed us many identities-he was a baby, dancing for his mother's smile; When he was a cosmopolitan explorer, he sighed for mountains and seas; But a young man in love, eulogizing love because of his beloved girl; But an old man with silver hair, reflecting on life alone in his memories; But more often, he is just an unknown passer-by, recording the moments of inspiration for everything in the world, and then quietly leaving with a smile.
Apart from Tagore's fresh and natural writing, what I feel in Birds is more of a kind of love for life and thinking about love. There is no doubt that Tagore's inspiration comes from life, but at the same time it is higher than life; With his love for life, he cleverly concealed some sufferings and darkness, and gave the rest of the light and smile to the readers without reservation. His thinking on love covers many aspects, including the innocent love between young men and women, the eternal maternal love of mothers for their children, and the unspeakable love between man and nature ... Especially for love, Tagore used a lot of metaphors and rhetoric to praise the beauty and greatness of love. In Tagore's eyes, the world needs love, and life needs love more, just as he wrote in Birds: "I believe in your love, so let this be my last words."
On the other hand, Tagore captured many inspirations about nature. He said that the dusk in the sky is like a lamp, the leaves in the breeze are like fragments of thoughts, and the singing of birds is the echo of the morning light of the earth; He is the embodiment of all things in nature. He let the sky talk to the sea, birds talk to clouds, flowers talk to the sun ... In short, in Tagore's poems, the world is humanized and natural, and everything has its own growth and thinking; And he just sorted out the fragments of his thoughts and humanized them. And this is also the origin of the name "bird": "thoughts pass through my mind like flocks of wild ducks flying through the sky, and I hear their wings flying high."
……
This is Tagore, and this is a bird. Perhaps, for the history of human civilization, "bird" is just a drop in the ocean; However, I just want to say that this is a unique freshness. In today's busy and crowded city, we can create another paradise for us with its vast natural wilderness.
Reflections on birds iii. The famous poet Tagore's masterpiece Birds. This great masterpiece consists of 325 short poems, which are short but contain a trace of childlike interest and profound truth. From crying babies to explorers who have gone through difficulties and obstacles; From inexperienced young people to weather-beaten old people; From ordinary grass to beautiful and enchanting flowers; From high-flying birds to clean white clouds, all are interesting. Tagore used personification to make everything alive and give them a chance to tell their joys and sorrows.
And yellow leaves of autumn, which have no songs, flutter and fall there with a sign. In the poems of this book, there are descriptions of beautiful scenery, dialogues based on understanding of life and cautionary sayings. One of them called: "I sat at the window this morning, time like a passer-by, stopped for a while, nodded to me and walked past." In fact, the philosophy of this sentence is to tell us to cherish time. These maxims can be used not only as a warning in our life, but also as our motto to encourage us to make continuous progress at any time. Tagore built a temple of truth with concise language.
It is undeniable that the brevity of language makes it difficult for birds to understand, but this does not affect its profound and priceless truth. From Tagore's works, I feel a serious attitude of loving life and thinking about love. There is no doubt that Tagore's inspiration comes from life and is higher than life. He loves life, so he hides the suffering and darkness in life and keeps the light and joy. Tagore's thinking about love is more profound and persistent. Pure love between men and women, warm affection between mother and son, subtle feelings between man and nature. ...
Tagore expressed all the feelings that human beings can experience accurately and implicitly. Tagore especially advocates love. He used many metaphors to praise the greatness and eternity of love, as he wrote: "I believe in your love, so let this be my last word."
He put love and truth at the two ends of the scale of life just right, without any deviation. The balance of life-love and wisdom; The balance of life-love and truth. Although this book is difficult to understand, we can all learn the same truth from it: love is the foundation of life and love is the whole of life! Listen to light music, hold a "bird" and imagine yourself as a bird, flying freely in the endless blue sky.
"Birds Say" 4 "Life is as gorgeous as summer flowers and death is as beautiful as autumn leaves." I like this collection of poems very much. After reading it, I was deeply inspired!
This is my meeting with birds. Beautiful and slightly sad sentences caught me off guard for my deep love for poetry. I opened it with excitement and trembling heart. Page flying, poetry flowing, I suddenly feel very lost. It's like being thrown into a maze of flowers and plants, and going crazy for a while; It's like falling into the sea and indulging in it; I seem to have fallen into an ethereal dream, and I don't want to wake up.
I forced myself to calm down, tidy up my thoughts and read every short story word for word. When I read it with a peaceful and natural appreciation attitude, I saw the poet's love and yearning for nature and the poet's childlike innocence.
Birds is a collection of poems and fairy tales. As innocent as a fairy tale. Fairy tales have a beautiful sunny side and an ugly dark side. In addition to modesty and kindness, poetry also describes the hubbub of conceit, the hypocritical earth and the river of returning good for evil. He who sees through the beauty and ugliness of good and evil in the world writes about the joys and sorrows of the world. If there were only beauty in the world, there would be no poetry, let alone fairy tales.
A bird wishes to be a cloud. Cloud is willing to be a bird. This is my favorite article. When I was a child, I pointed to this poem and asked my father, "Dad, what does this mean?" My father stroked my head and replied in a gentle and loving tone: "Son, this poem tells us not to envy what others have, but to be happy and happy with what you have." Young I am full of yearning for beautiful things. After some thinking, my clear voice said, "Dad, maybe birds and clouds think each other is lonely and lonely, so they want to spend time with their friends like each other!" "
Birds are like a mysterious and beautiful garden hidden in mist. Many people have set foot in the garden, everyone has tried to uncover the fog hanging over the garden, but no one dares to say that what they see is the most real garden. After reading it, it's wonderful. From different angles, you will have completely different results. The same place, when you set foot in it again, savor it carefully and have different feelings.
I stepped into the garden again and again, looking for the footprints of birds again and again.
In the garden, I have seen the lights playing among the green leaves and heard the sound of wild ducks flapping their wings and flying; I have heard the dialogue between the sea and the sky, and I have seen the darkness with stars as sparks; I am noisy with the storm at midnight and soaring in the music of summer. I don't know what the poet really thinks, but I try to experience what the poet once felt, discover fairy tales with poetic eyes and experience nature with childlike innocence.
I searched and wandered in the garden, longing for freedom like a bird, looking for fairy tales in my heart.
Thinking of Birds 5 is not only different from Haruki Murakami's sad and hesitant youth story in the sun, but also different from Zhang Ailing's gorgeous old-fashioned love that reveals bleak vicissitudes. Tagore's words are unique and fresh, like the air in the natural wilderness where no one has set foot, and under the overwhelming sunshine, a window facing heaven has been opened for us. No matter how indifferent people are, it is hard to resist this silent love and free and easy wisdom.
Love is silent, pursuing the truth of nature and advocating the nobleness of life, which is Tagore's wisdom beyond ordinary people. Troupe of little vagrants of the world, please leave your footprints in my words. He recorded the complicated world and ever-changing experiences. "Let life be beautiful like summer flowers and death like autumn leaves." He expressed the true meaning of existence and the value of human nature. "I cast my shadow on my path, because I have an unlit lamp." He is self-reflective and modest. "I can't choose the best, but the best chose me." He pursues patiently and has no regrets.
Tagore built a temple of truth with concise language. It is true that the brevity of this language makes birds somewhat difficult to understand, but this does not affect its profound and priceless truth.

Especially for love, Tagore used a lot of metaphors and rhetoric to praise the beauty and greatness of love.
Of course, the poet's sadness and loneliness are still soaked in fresh writing. "We read the world wrong and say it deceives us." Tagore said this in his poem. Incomplete past and betrayal are the shackles that he can't earn. Even if he is brilliant and sees everything clearly, he can't stand a painstaking suspicion and accusation. When the breath of summer spread to every corner, a few birds passed by, their bones creaked and their vocal cords trembled slightly, and they began to sing. Something woke up gradually. The poet's wind, crossing oceans and forests, seeks its own singing.
Tagore is a poet who loves the world. Even this "world" still exists darkness, selfishness, desire, betrayal and filth. Even if only one bird is willing to stay for him, the song "I Love You" is enough to make him worship and believe in the whole world. As he once said, "I believe in your love."
Random thoughts on reading birds 6 Although the holiday is less than a month, you can't miss reading this book for a day. Seeing the poetic title of Birds, I thought that I had been looking forward to the opportunity to read this book, so I finished reading it this holiday. Birds is a collection of poems. Poetry is a language and a beautiful philosophical discourse. As soon as I think of the title of this book, "The mountains are getting better every day, and the birds are coming back every day", I can't help singing it out of my mouth and wandering in the mountains where the sunset is oblique.
Sorrow is hushed into peace in my heart, like the evening arrival in the silent forest. I'm quite touched by this. Man, like water, originates from infinity and ends in infinity. Mountain forest, like a broad and far-reaching state of mind, has become a part of mountain forest. This description seems to be integrated with nature. How many times have you received eager greetings from the sun in the scorching sun, and how many times have you watched the moon rise above Dongshan and wander between bullfights? That was the most comfortable time for me. It is this wonderful language that describes the unspeakable feelings in my heart.
Sometimes "Birds" makes me feel that "he" is my bosom friend, but with deeper taste, I realize that he is still my predecessor and has told many things. The best things don't come alone, they come with everything. It's simple. Money is a good thing, which can make you live better. But the extra part is at best a few odd changes behind the balance, which you have never enjoyed or lost in your life. Bill Gates founded Microsoft, and his money is countless. The coins with the largest denomination can fill several buildings. Now he just wants to make more contributions to people and enrich his life, because he understands that' the best things don't come alone, they come with everything'. When he put money into the donation box or donation account again and again, he may be able to imagine many children laughing happily because they got help. So he got no less than he lost, and more importantly, what he lost was just worthless to him but could benefit others. Why not?
Busy society is caused by people's blind ability competition. There is a saying,' When I have nothing to do, let me sink into the depths of peace and be undisturbed, just like the dusk by the sea when the sea is silent'. Just like slow life, it's not casual idleness, but self-sufficiency with confidence. We can "sink to the bottom of the sea" when we need a rest and get the purest thinking answer. Times are fast, and only a few strikers and most rabble can keep up. Those who can't keep up will be sublimated through thinking.
What impressed me at last is that we should learn to be grateful. Miyazaki Hayao once said, "Life is like a train to death. If some people we like leave halfway, we should not stay, but be grateful. " Leaving is nothing to be afraid of, it is also a kind of progress, and what is even more terrible is that we are stagnant. You know, the other side of the road is poetry and distance.
Bird Seven consists of short and pithy poems. There are only two or three short sentences in each poem. Although the words are short, the implied meaning is not small. These short poems, which are free in form, exquisite in language, short and pithy, melodious in melody, outstanding, thought-provoking, clear in brushwork and unpretentious, seem to have a little childlike interest, a little vicissitudes of life, a little melancholy, a little sadness and a little heartache.
Every sentence tells us the truth. For example, the sixteenth song: "I sit at the window this morning, and the world like a passer-by stops for a moment, nods to me and walks past." Isn't time precious? It can be said that there is a saying: "An inch of time is worth an inch of gold, and an inch of gold can't buy an inch of time." Ah!
Life and death are a kind of distance that can never be combined, but being close at hand is a stranger, which is a further distance between the heart of a secret admirer and the person he loves. Love can't get along, lovers can't get married, this is the distance between lovers who regret forever, and you pretend not to care when you clearly love, which is a contradictory and painful distance from the heart. But it's further than this, you know? It is inner indifference, contempt for love, and the face of someone who loves himself. In the farthest distance in the world, he dug an insurmountable ditch and refused love.
Walking into Tagore's Birds is like walking into a beautiful Garden of Eden. Everything is vividly displayed in front of me, with a touch of beauty. Void proverbs and false masks have already turned into broken leaves in the early winter streams and morning fog, but I have no idea of the sighs of previous lives, and I only have a joy in my heart.
On the other hand, Tagore captured many inspirations about nature. He said that the dusk in the sky is like a lamp, the leaves in the breeze are like fragments of thoughts, and the singing of birds is the echo of the morning light of the earth; He is the embodiment of all things in nature. He let the sky talk to the sea, birds talk to clouds, flowers talk to the sun ... In short, in Tagore's poems, the world is humanized and natural, and everything has its own growth and thinking; And he just sorted out the fragments of his thoughts and humanized them. And this is also the origin of the name "bird": "thoughts pass through my mind like flocks of wild ducks flying through the sky, and I hear their wings flying high."
I use my most emotional side to face these poems that people can't help falling into. Enjoy the few minutes closest to your heart. Humans really have too much, so we have to be grateful for life.
Tagore said: "Let me imagine that among the stars, there is a heart guiding my life through the unknown darkness." One of the brightest stars must be Tagore's bird!
There are no gorgeous sentences and ups and downs. With nature as the background, Tagore's unique insights and extraordinary wisdom have created this enduring, light and free and easy bird.
Once upon a time, I didn't like reading poetry. I don't think there are wonderful and vivid fairy tales and lyrical prose. Those words are empty and boring.
But Birds gives me a different feeling: "If you shed tears when you lose the sun, you will also lose the stars." He told us that there are gains and losses in life, and we should know how to seize opportunities; Life is as bright as summer flowers and death is as quiet as autumn leaves. Tell us to show and struggle in life, so that when life dies, we can have no regrets; "I can't choose the best, but the best chose me." It also tells us that we should have a goal in life and always be ready, because the best opportunities are reserved for those who are best prepared. ...
A few short sentences tell the true meaning of life. Simple language expresses love for nature and life.
There is a saying in Birds that the bow whispers to the sword before shooting: "Your freedom is my freedom." Yes, people long for freedom and don't want to be bound. Bows and arrows, tied together, cannot realize each other's value. Only by shooting the sword and putting it down can two people be free and have their own sky.
I often hear students complain in their ears: when their grades drop for a period of time, their parents are nervous and review questions avalanche. They often review until late at night, but they have no spirit in class the next day, and their grades naturally plummet. I even signed up for a lot of cram schools, and the whole weekend was full, let alone playing, and I didn't even have time to do the homework assigned by the school.
Isn't that what it is? When parents are tired, we work hard, just like bows and arrows. Instead of realizing value, I am tired of learning and my grades are getting worse and worse. It is better to let go, let us struggle and create freely, but we can open up our own sky.
Let go, just like the combination of bow and arrow, no matter how tight the bow is, the arrow is on the string after all, which binds freedom; Only when it is released, the arrow can freely rush into the sky, get rid of the entanglement of the bow and go straight into the sky, like a soaring bird!
At that moment, I seemed to have traveled through time and space and heard the poet's singing.
Perhaps, this is the true meaning of birds!
Random thoughts on reading birds 9 Reading the poems of Indian poet-master Tagore is different from reading those beautiful youth stories with sadness and hesitation, and his words have a unique freshness. Reading every poem is like opening a window in the morning after a rainstorm in early summer, and you will find a clear and white sky.
Birds is a collection of poems with epigrams, which consists of 325 untitled poems. Tagore compared himself to an "eternal traveler" looking for an ideal realm in his poems, wandering around like a bird. In this collection of poems, Tagore harmoniously unifies day and night, stream and ocean, freedom and restraint, and his short and pithy poems contain profound philosophy of life.
Tagore once wrote in his book: "If gold is tied to the wings of a bird, it will never soar in the sky again." Although this sentence is written about small animals, it is actually a warning to human beings. Facing the storm of life, we should have a sober choice. Only by learning to give up can we unload all kinds of burdens in life and go into battle lightly. Wise choice is better than blind persistence. Don't give up your most precious things, such as friendship and affection, for things outside your body. They are precious and need to be cherished and cared for. Without them, even if you are rich, you can't get real happiness and happiness.
"Let life be beautiful like summer flowers and death like autumn leaves." This is an extremely famous sentence in bird collection. Tagore used poetry to describe life and compared it to the four seasons. Summer is full of passion, just like we are in the prime of life, so chic. But in autumn, leaves fall frequently and dead branches are lifeless. It's like at the end of our lives, everything becomes quiet and sinks into the soil. Tell us to be as gorgeous as summer flowers when we are alive, and live the best side. When we die, looking back, we feel that glad you came left quietly and peacefully like autumn leaves, with no regrets.
"Don't say it's morning, but send it away in the name of yesterday and treat it as a newborn baby who hasn't been named for the first time." Tagore also showed another meaning of "morning" in his poems. The arrival of every morning is not a monotonous and endless repetition of trivial things, but an eternal reappearance. Because before the dawn, light triumphs over darkness, and freedom triumphs over bondage. This is an important episode, which is endowed with profound significance.
Tagore's Birds had a profound influence on China's modern poetry. The writer Bing Xin said in the preface of her collection of poems "Stars" that her poems were influenced by Tagore. Although Bird was written in 19 13, it is still memorable. The fragrance in the book and the profound philosophy expressed in the relaxed sentences are like enlightenment. I think that's why it's attractive and why it's enduring.
After reading Birds 10 In this quiet and transparent summer, I finished reading a quiet and perfect book-Birds.
Birds consists of 325 poems, which are short and pithy, and some even have only one line, but they all reveal profound philosophy of life or leisurely literary talent. It is so thin that it can be stuffed into any travel bag at will, but it allows us to enjoy the quiet shower it brings us all the time.
"Let life be beautiful like summer flowers and death like autumn leaves." This is a poem written by the translator at the beginning of Birds. When I saw it, I immediately saw the beautiful scenery of summer flowers shining in the golden sun and falling leaves in the autumn wind. Before I saw this sentence, I always felt that life was fatigue, death was despair, and life and death were not easy. Tagore, on the other hand, dazzled me with his elegant words. Life is just a few decades in a hurry, and you can't get along with yourself. In the end, this precious life is not wasted! Therefore, it is a wise choice to understand the beauty of life and the essence of death and spend this life happily and healthily. Life is precious and wonderful, which everyone who lives happily knows and longs for. Death is inevitable. Although we must live well, when the prosperity is exhausted, we will finally understand that the laws of nature are beyond the reach of human wisdom, and death is not the opposite of life, but a part of life.
In addition to his understanding of quiet and beautiful life and death, Tagore also wrote many inspiring poems-"If you shut the door on all mistakes, the truth will be shut out." Vivid language is as innocent and lovely as a child, and there is no lack of philosophy. If we don't make any mistakes, we naturally have no chance to learn from them. Error is the ladder to truth. Edison failed countless times before he invented the incandescent lamp. Although we are not as great as Edison at present, if we can learn from our mistakes and be rational and wise step by step, we may really achieve something one day. Great people are just ordinary protagonists before greatness.
Tagore's poems not only encourage people openly, but also are useful metaphors. "Although the road is crowded, it is lonely because no one loves it." There are a thousand hamlets in the eyes of a thousand audiences. This poem reminds me of those hypocritical people-countless friends who didn't communicate sincerely and didn't apologize honestly to others. Or think of those who are mysterious, good at camouflage or enter the comedian career. The eyes of the masses are discerning, and sincerity will be discovered sooner or later. As Lincoln famously said, "You can fool everyone for a while, or you can fool some people forever, but you can't fool everyone forever." Treat people sincerely, deal with the blue sky in the mirror with an honest and pure heart and spread love to the world. In this way, even if the road is not crowded, I am happy because someone loves me.
325 poems, each with its own style, are like 325 girls, with thousands of manners. Together, they formed this life textbook to teach you how to "slow down your life and make your mind happy".
