Xizhouqu
Miss Mei wants to go to Kau Xizhou and break plum blossoms on the north bank of the Yangtze River.
Thin clothes are as red as apricots and hair as black as crows.
Where is Xixi Jiao? The two oars on board can be placed at the ferry pier of the Kau Xizhou Bridge.
It's getting late, Shrike flies away, and the night wind blows into Sapium sebiferum.
Under the tree is her home, and her emerald hair is exposed in the door.
She opened the door and didn't see her sweetheart. She went out to pick red-violet flowers.
Autumn, autumn Nantang, she is holding a lotus seed, and the lotus grows taller.
With his head down, he fiddled with the lotus seeds in the water, which were as green as the lake.
Hide lotus seeds in your sleeve. Lotus seeds are red and transparent.
Miss my husband, but not yet. She looks up at the swan in the sky.
The sky was full of geese, and she went up to the tower to see her husband.
Although the tower is high, she can't see her husband. She leans against the railing all day.
The railing bent and bent into the distance, and her hands were as bright as jade.
The curtain is so high, rippling like sea water, empty and generally dark green.
If the sea is as long as a dream, then you are sad and I am sad.
If Nanfeng knows how I feel, please blow my dream to Puxi Island.
This poem is mainly about a young girl, depicting her warm and subtle feelings of missing her lover. However, it is not written in the first person's self-reported tone of the girl, nor is it an objective description of the poet's third person, but in the way of "memory", so the whole poem is written in the tone of male narration.
Later, in Du Fu's Moonlit Night, the poet misses his wife for the moon, but assumes that his wife misses herself for the moon, which is exactly the same technique. Through the description of her various situations, she vividly created a beautiful, light, pure and affectionate girl image.
Xizhou Song is the longest lyric poem among Yuefu folk songs in the Southern Dynasties.
