Su Dongpo's most open-minded poems are as follows:
1. "To Liu Jingwen"
Song Dynasty Su Shi
The load is gone and there is no rain left Cover, the chrysanthemums are still there, but there are proud frost branches.
You must remember that the best times of the year are orange and green.
You must remember the best time of the year, that is the time of late autumn and early winter when oranges are golden and green.
2. "Spring Night"
Su Shi of the Song Dynasty
A moment of a spring night is worth a thousand gold, the flowers are fragrant and the moon is cloudy.
The sound of the singing tube is soft on the balcony, and the night is dark in the swing courtyard.
Translation:
On a spring night, even a quarter of an hour is worth a thousand pieces of gold. The flowers exude a faint fragrance, and the moonlight casts hazy shadows under the flowers. On the tall buildings in the distance, the officials and nobles were still enjoying singing, dancing and wind music, and the courtyard with the swings was immersed in the quiet night.
3. "Hezi Nostalgic from Mianchi"
Song Dynasty Su Shi
Everywhere in life is similar, it should be like a flying dragon stepping on snow and mud.
Occasionally, there are fingers and claws left on the mud, and Hongfei is counting the things.
The old monk has died and a new pagoda has been built, and there is no reason to see the old inscriptions if the walls are broken.
Do you still remember the rough days? The road was long, people were trapped and the donkeys brayed.
Translation:
What does it look like to run around all your life? It should be like a flying dragon stepping on the snow. Occasionally, it would leave a few paw prints on the snow, but in a blink of an eye it would fly away again, and it would be hard to remember where the traces were left! Feng Xian has passed away, and his ashes have been placed in the newly built small tower. The wall on which the poem was written has been damaged, so the ink marks on the old poem can no longer be seen. Do you still remember the hardships of rushing for the exam? Due to the long journey, people and horses were exhausted, and even the lame donkey couldn't bear it.
4. "One of the Best Things to Do in Huizhou"
Su Shi of the Song Dynasty
It is spring at the foot of Luofu Mountain, and the oranges and bayberries are fresh every time.
Eating three hundred lychees a day, he has grown up to be a Lingnan native.
Translation:
It is spring all year round under Luofu Mountain, and loquats and yellow plums are fresh every day. If I eat 300 lychees a day, I would like to live in Lingnan forever.
5. "Crossing the Sea on the Night of June 20th"
Su Shi of the Song Dynasty
As I wait for the third watch, the bitter rain ends and the wind clears up.
Who embellishes the scattered clouds and the bright moon? The sky and the sea are naturally clear.
In the spare time, Lu Sou took advantage of his thoughts and had a rough understanding of the music played in Xuanyuan.
I don’t hate the nine deaths in the Southern Wilderness. I am here to travel through the wonders of my life.
The clouds are scattered and the moon is bright. No one needs to decorate it. The blue sky and blue sea are originally clear and clear. Although I took the boat across the sea with Confucius' ambition to save the world in mind, I seemed to hear the beautiful music of the Yellow Emperor's Xianchi. Even though I narrowly escaped death after being demoted to the Southern Wilderness, I don't regret it, because this trip was the most amazing experience in my life.
