Meet sb. leave
(Anonymous in Sui Dynasty)
Willow green hangs down to the ground, and flowers are long and sultry.
The wicker broke and the flowers flew away. I wonder if pedestrians will come back.
Willow is not only the mascot of people, but also the poetic material for Chinese people to chant and entrust their souls, which embodies the accumulation of traditional culture in China.
The word "willow" of willow is homophonic with the word "willow", which refers to the artistic conception of willow in people's minds to retain guests and relatives. As early as the Han dynasty, there was a feeling of farewell and hospitality. Sui, Tang and Song Dynasties were more prosperous. A poem "Farewell" written by an anonymous person in the Sui Dynasty wrote: "The willow green hangs low and the flowers are long and sultry. The wicker is broken and the flowers are flying. Will pedestrians come back? " In the Tang Dynasty, there was a Baqiao bridge on the Bashui River in the east of Chang 'an, which was the only way to Luoyang in the east. Beijing people send guests here as a sign of staying. So willows were planted on both sides of Bashui. Jiang Lang, a gifted scholar in the Southern Dynasties, once said, "It's just to bid farewell to those who are fascinated." Later generations renamed Baqiao to ecstasy bridge. Pei Shuo's poem "Willow" in the Tang Dynasty: "Dangerous buildings are high in dust and low in dust, so what can you climb on Baqiao Bridge? Considering that it is a heartless tree, I don't understand how to welcome people and send them away. " Complaining about willows is heartless, and complaining about leaving others is also heartless. Baling, mistakenly attributed to Li Bai's poem "Qin Yi E", refers to this charming bridge: "Qin Louyue, willow color every year, Baling is sad." It's hard to hold back tears when people leave the bridge to say goodbye. Shake Goodbye written by Li Shutong, a close friend, is often heard in modern music circles: "The evening wind blows the flute, and the sunset is over the mountain", which also expresses the sadness that friends will break up again after "close friends are separated"!
The ancients also regretted and complained about the broken wicker of Fujian tourists. Tang Dunhuang tune in Looking at Jiangnan: "Don't climb me, climbing me is too eccentric. I am a willow tree in Qujiang forest pool. I want to throw it away from that person and love it for a while. " The poet used willow branches on the banks of the Yangtze River in Yangzhou as the call sign of a geisha with tragic fate. This person folds it away, and that person throws it casually. Love is only temporary. How snobbish it is, it can be described as vivid. All the above sentences reveal a sad and miserable mood. Or "Ruan Langgui" by Ouyang Zuiweng in the Northern Song Dynasty: "Green plums are like peas and willows, butterflies fly far away" is vivid and lively. It is attractive and seemingly joyful to write out the cheerful mood of a girl who bathes in spring while enjoying spring. His book "Raw tea leaves the west", "On the willow shoots and the moon, people meet after dusk", reveals the expectation for lovers. In fact, Wenzhou's "going out to plant willows with the wind" is the most confident, and the spring breeze will be proud and the cause will be successful. Living with the soil is more promising and full of sunshine than attaching to the native land.
Speaking of nostalgia for their homeland, it is no wonder that people in China are affectionate. Because China people have been living a farming life for thousands of years, the homesickness rooted in agricultural production is particularly strong. As early as 2,500 years ago, in the last chapter of The Book of Songs, Xiaoya Cai Wei, there was a saying, "I have been there, and the willow is the Yi Yi". The veteran, who has been in the war for a long time, recalled that when he went out for the first time, the graceful willow branches in front of the door seemed to be holding hands with him and holding clothes. Through the image of wicker, it has become a farewell image, and even sublimated into the artistic conception of nostalgic homeland, which is really touching. Wang Zhihuan's Four-line Poem "Qiang Di Why Blame Liu? "Spring breeze is not about Yumenguan" is a sad willow. It's not that it doesn't know spring and doesn't sprout, just because Yumenguan is in the spring breeze! It also compares the harsh environment of frontier fortress recruitment.
Love is the eternal theme of mankind, and it is more meaningful to write lovers' farewell with willows. In the Southern Song Dynasty, Lu You revisited Shenyuan in his twilight years, and the traces of his hometown aroused the memory of his dead lover Tang Wan. There is a saying that "the dream is broken and fragrant for forty years, and the old man in Shenyuan does not blow cotton." Old willow in Shenyuan and old man in Jianhu shed tears, which makes people cry. There is a saying in Wang Shifu's Farewell to the West Chamber, Pavilions and Pavilions in the Yuan Dynasty that "the willow silk is long, but the jade is difficult to tie". Although willow silk is entrusted by acacia, it can't be a horse. After tortuous pursuit, the lovers who finally got married separated. No wonder Yingying "looked at Shili Pavilion from afar and suddenly lost her jade muscle".
Poplar and willow belong to the same family and different genera, which has always been called willow in China. She is not only covered with tender branches, but also with catkins and flowers that arouse infinite feelings. Shi Shuo Xin Yu, compiled by Liu Yiqing in the Southern Dynasties, records: "Mrs. Xie got together on a snowy day and told her children the meaning of the paper, but suddenly it began to snow. Gong said, "What is snow like?" Brother Hu said,' The difference between sprinkling salt and air can be simulated.' Brother and daughter said,' If catkins are not caused by the wind.' Imperial guards laughed. Teacher Xie An of the Eastern Jin Dynasty wrote one on a snowy day. His brother, Yi's daughter, used catkins to dance with the wind to describe snow, which is physical and mental, wonderful and charming. Xie Daowen was praised as a talented woman. Later, people wrote a lot of catkin poems. Among them, Su Dongpo's "Shui Long Yin, Zi Yun Zhang Fu Hua Yang Ci" is the most famous. The first sentence of this word is "like a flower is still like a non-flower", and the word says "sad, sleepy, wanting to open and close." The dream floated in Wan Li, looking for a place to go, and was called by Yingying. "At the end of the sentence is" spring scenery three points, dust two points, water one point. "It doesn't seem to be Huayang in detail, but one thing is tears."
Sue will be compared with others, which is very appropriate and better than his colleagues' words. Before Su Ci, Huayang's name was not very pleasant to hear, and it was compared to a fickle woman, so it was called "Yi De". Dongpo rehabilitated her innocence and her true colors, a pure, heavy, resentful and affectionate daughter. Willow will thank him!
