First, the original work
Transparent small container
The silence of spring is because I don't want a long stream of water, and the shadow reflected on the water is like sunny days and breezes.
The delicate lotus flower bud shows a sharp corner from the water, and a naughty little dragonfly stands on its head.
Secondly, annotation translation.
1.？ The outlet of the spring. Cherish: stingy.
2.？ Shiny water: reflected in the water. Soft sunshine: a soft landscape on a sunny day.
3.？ Sharp corner: the tip of the lotus leaf that is not stretched at the beginning of the water.
4.？ Top: top, top. In order to rhyme, "head" is not read softly.
Three. Poetry translation
Spring is silent because it can't stand the thin water flow, and the shade reflects the water because it loves sunny days and the softness of the wind.
The delicate little lotus leaf just emerged from the sharp corner of the water, and a naughty little dragonfly stood on it early.
Fourth, the creative background.
Yang Wanli went to Changzhou to work. The simple folk customs, the smoke from the farmhouse, the flowing water of the river and the beautiful fields all made him feel fresh. Whenever he has time, he climbs the ancient city, strolls in the countryside, boats in the river and enjoys the beautiful scenery of nature. One day, he came to the pond and saw a clear spring flowing into the pond. The willows brush the water and reflect the blue waves. Xiao He just surfaced, and several dragonflies stood or flew. Although they are not decorated with pink lotus flowers, they are fresh and lovely. Yang Wanli's poems are interesting, that is, they become short poems. Later, Yang Wanli lamented: In the past, writing poems blindly imitated, the thinking was not smooth, and there was no gas field. Now, let nature take its course, and I will try my best to write poetry.
This poem is small and exquisite, just like a colorful ink painting of flowers, birds, insects and fish. In the small pool in the picture, the pool water, spring water, stream, lotus flower and dragonfly are all small, but exquisite and full of vitality.
The first sentence, closely related to the topic, is the source of a small pool, a trickle of spring water. The spring water flowed out of the hole silently, of course, it was very small. The flowing spring forms a trickle, smaller. This was normal, but the author added the word "cherish" out of thin air, saying that Yan Quan seemed to cherish this trickle. So this poem immediately flew and became affectionate, interesting and full of humanity.
In the second sentence, write the shade in the soft sunshine and cover the water. This is also a very common thing, but the poet added the word "love", which seems to cover the pond with her shade to prevent the water from evaporating and drying up, thus turning ruthlessness into sentience. Moreover, the poem takes the form of shadow, focusing on the soft branches on the water, which is very ethereal.
In three or four sentences, narrow the focus and write about a small lotus flower in the pool with a dragonfly on it. Xiao-he just put her budding tip out of the water, showing great vitality, but there was a little dragonfly standing on this tip long ago, which seemed to get there first and enjoy the spring scenery. Xiao He and Dragonfly, a "talent show" and an "early riser", look at everything around them with novel eyes and capture fleeting scenery.
Poets are excited by things, and use agile and dexterous methods to describe specific scenes full of interest, and write extremely ordinary things in nature as a whole, which is harmonious, lively, natural, vivid, humorous and popular. And writing this poem into a painting, the picture is rich in layers: sun, trees, lotus, pond, bright colors, bright sunshine, dark green shade, green lotus, fresh dragonfly and clear spring. The picture is full of motion: flying dragonflies, shadowy pool water, full of poetry and painting.
