bird
Author: Bai Juyi

I advise you not to pat a bird. My son will be in the nest waiting for his mother to come back.
Translation:
Who says these birds have tiny lives and are as flesh and blood as all life? I advise you not to hit the bird on the branch. The bird is waiting in the nest for the mother bird to come back.
Appreciation of poetry and prose
In his poems, the poet made an exhortation to persuade people to love birds, which showed the poet's kindness and kindness.
Bai Juyi was deeply influenced by Confucianism, Taoism and Buddhism, and argued endlessly with Confucianism, Buddhism and Buddhism. If Li Bai is an elf on earth, he will do whatever he wants; Bai Juyi is an ascetic monk who entered the WTO. He helps the world, with boundless benevolence and righteousness, and is content to seek liberation.
It is said that Luoyang paper is expensive and that life in Chang 'an is not easy. The poet Bai was once a proud wit. Later, I met a Taoist and felt his psychological feelings for a long time. Bai Juyi gradually realized that everything in the world is the same life, and there is no distinction between high and low. The easy-to-understand "bird" regards the bird's life as a human life. People can't decide the life and death of a bird for themselves.
If the definition of nature is that all things are equal, then the rule of human society is to strengthen all things into 369. The poet in white listened to the monk and said that although evil is small, good is also small. He once thought that the inequality of life eventually turned into the equality of all things in nature. Talking about birds actually refers to the real society. Is the life of the royal nobility high? Poor people have no life. They are all flesh and blood, and they all have deep affection for mother and son. The poet hopes that society will be full of love and joy. Is that Utopia or Peach Blossom Garden? Zhumen, peaches and plums are gorgeous, and a poor family's thin shirt can't hide the cold. I advise you not to be poor and rich, but to be ordinary with flesh and blood.

Expanding Reading: Appreciation of Bai Juyi's Riverside Scene at Qingming Festival
Qingming night original:
It's windy, the moon is bright and the night is clear.
Historians of blue bricks and red mansions.
Singing alone in the monastery,
Listening to the string tube from a distance, flowers bloom in the dark.
Translation:
At night in Tomb-Sweeping Day, the breeze blows gently and the moonlight is hazy. The railing made of jasper and the wall made of red brick are the house of the secretariat. A person walks in a circuitous corridor, singing, listening to the sound of strings coming from a distance, and silently enjoying flowers.
Interpretation of words in Riverside Scene at Qingming Festival;
Tomb-Sweeping Day night.
One person: One person.
Cloister: A circuitous corridor.
Yao: Far away, far away.
Look at flowers: enjoy flowers.
Appreciation of Qingming Night:
Hiking is also called spring outing, spring seeking and outing. Just stepping on the grass, playing in the country and watching the spring scenery. March is clear, spring returns to the earth, and nature is full of vitality everywhere, which is a good time to go for an outing. People in our country have always kept the habit of walking in Tomb-Sweeping Day. Tomb-Sweeping Day is a good time to go for an outing, so it has become an important part of Tomb-Sweeping Day customs. In ancient times, women were not allowed to go out on weekdays. This is a rare opportunity to go hiking in Qingming, so women have more fun than men in Qingming.
Appreciation of Works Qingming Night is the custom of Bai Juyi's Qingming outing.
In ancient times, outing was also called "seeking spring" and "Spring Festival", which was popular in Jin Dynasty. Tomb-Sweeping Day is also a good time for people to have a spring outing. Before and after Tomb-Sweeping Day, beautiful spring scenery, getting close to nature and outing is another important activity of Tomb-Sweeping Day custom. At present, it is generally believed that this Tomb-Sweeping Day custom inherited the tradition of Shangsi Festival in March and was formed at the end of the Spring and Autumn Period. An important content of Shangsi Festival is that young men and women go out for an outing and choose their spouses freely.
But the beauty of this poem is that it is neither clear nor cold. It has its own style. Although it is clear, it is intended to write the affair of a girl who is in love with spring outside the paper. The phrase "clear again" makes people laugh and ask, "But are you worried about getting married?"
I have always had a good impression on Bai Juyi. Although Pipa Xing and Song of Eternal Sorrow once made me recite it with pain, when I grow up, I think about it carefully, but its famous sentences can be seen everywhere. I chose this song because it has clear artistic conception and bright color contrast, but it is not dazzling. The poet enjoyed listening to flowers at night, but he took a short rest around the cloister, but implicitly pointed out the poet's real intention after this leisure.
