Pre-Qin Dynasty: Anonymous
The Millennium is frost. The so-called Iraqis are on the water side.
Tracing back and forth, the road is blocked and long. Swim back from it, in the middle of the water
It's been a long time, and it hasn't changed for thousands of years. The so-called Iraqis are in the water.
Tracing back and forth from it, the road is blocked and broken. Swim back from the inside and swim in the water.
Jia Cai, peace and prosperity have not passed. The so-called Iraqis are in the water.
Go back and follow, the road is blocked and turn right. Swim back from the inside and swim in the water.
Second, translation.
The river is green with reeds and frost in autumn. Where is the right person? Just across the river.
It's too long to go upstream to find her. Follow the running water to find her, as if in the middle of the water.
The reeds by the river are dense, and the morning dew is not dry. Where is the right person? Just beyond the river bank.
Sail against the current, it is hard to go climbs. Follow the running water to find her, as if on a beach.
The reeds by the river are thick and thick, and the dew has not been completely collected in the morning. Where is the right person? It's just beyond the water.
It's hard to find a way to find her against the current. Follow the running water to find her as if she were in the water.
Third, appreciate
If the "Iraqi" in the poem is regarded as a lover, then this poem shows the melancholy mood of the lyric hero's persistent pursuit of good love. The spirit is precious and the feelings are sincere, but the result is slim and the situation is sad.
But the most valuable thing in this poem is not the pursuit and loss of the lyric hero, but the artistic conception of "being on the water side" created by him, which has universal significance. Good poetry can create artistic conception. Artistic conception is a pattern and a structure, which has the performance of containing all heterogeneous things with similar patterns and structures.
This poem creates a hazy, fresh and mysterious artistic conception with images such as water, reed, frost and dew. The morning mist covers everything, and the crystal dew has condensed into frost. A shy girl walked slowly. The water image in the poem represents women and embodies the beauty of women, and the thin mist is like a veil covered by a girl.
She appeared at the water's edge, and then on the land of water. I can't find it, and my anxious and helpless mood itches like an ant crawling and hurts like a knife cutting. As we often say, "distance produces beauty", this kind of beauty becomes hazy, fuzzy and unclear because of distance.
