Meaning: Close the door and the window and only listen to the sound of rain hitting pear blossoms. In this way, you have lived up to your youth and wasted your youth.
From: "A Cut of Plum Blossoms: The Rain Hits the Pear Blossoms and Closes the Door" Ming Dynasty·Tang Yin
Full Poem:
The rain hits the pear blossoms and closes the door, forgetting youth, Missed youth. Enjoyable things, who cares? Ecstasy under the flowers, ecstasy under the moon.
My eyebrows are full of sorrow, and there are thousands of crying marks, and tens of thousands of crying marks. I look at the sky at dawn and the clouds at dusk. I miss you when I walk and I miss you when I sit.
Translation:
Close the door deeply and listen only to the sound of rain hitting pear blossoms through the window. In this way, you have lived up to your youth and wasted your youth. Even if you have a joyful mood, who can you share it with? I feel sad under the flowers, and sad under the moon.
My brows were furrowed all day long, leaving thousands of tear stains on my face. I have been looking at the sky and clouds from morning to night. I miss you when I walk, and I miss you when I sit too! Extended information
After Tang Yin was imprisoned and demoted due to being implicated in a court case, his life trajectory has moved away from the traditional scholar-official class. He was involved in many erotic situations in his life, so he has many works with female themes, and this word is one of them.
Tang Bohu wrote this poem about boudoir in a woman's tone. The beauty lies not only in the smooth flow of the words, but also in the natural and smooth recitation of the space barrier that burns the soul of the infatuated woman. Wan's mentality is even more touching. Tang Yin expresses the pain of being tormented by time and space in a brisk manner. The upper and lower pieces complement each other and loop back and forth, vividly showing the image of an infatuated girl with tears stains on the end of the pen.
The author expresses the pain of being tortured by time and space easily. The upper and lower parts complement each other and go back and forth, vividly showing the image of an infatuated girl with tears stains on the end of the pen. She is truly worthy of her "talent" reputation.
