At dawn, the rumbling drums urge the sun to move, and at night, the rumbling drums urge the moon to rise. Jingshi Huangquan Liu Yingxin changed the curtain, and Zhao Xianggu was buried in the tomb for a long time. Drums have been hammered for thousands of years, and Qin Huang Hanwu can no longer hear the drums of this official street. Turn your black hair into a reed flower, and only the drum will stay with Zhong Nanshan for a long time. Even the immortals have been buried in the sky several times, only drums and leaky sounds come and go, echoing forever.

Guan Jie Drum Appreciation The title of this poem is Guan Jie Drum, but the main idea is to shock the passage of time. Time is an intangible thing, but the poet described the artistic image of Guan Jie Drum, turning the intangible into the tangible and the abstract into the visual, so that readers can feel the infinite existence of time. Guan Jie drum is a symbol of time, and the drums running through it are like the never-ending footsteps of time.
At the beginning of the poem, it depicts a bizarre picture: the macro universe, the sun and the moon jumping pills, and the cycle is endless; Drumming drums came from outside the painting. This description is both exaggerated and full of strange imagination. One or two sentences describe the drums and show the amazing picture of the sun and the moon running nonstop; Description: In the palace wall, the willow branches in spring have just turned from withered to glorious, spitting out goose-yellow buds, but the news of the death of a beautiful woman came out in the palace. In this way, the official street drum gives readers a very thrilling impression. It is the embodiment of the "flying light" image of "warm life in a cold month" Compared with the sixth sentence, the fifth sentence rewrites the drum sound: the thousand-year-old personnel have vanished, just like being "shattered" by the drum sound, and "seeing white for a long time"-the universe lasts forever. But Qin Huang Hanwu never heard the drums again. Compared with the eternal time, their lives are short and sad. Here, I especially mention "filial piety (that is, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty) Qin Huang", because both emperors had pursued immortality, but their unsuccessful wishes were inevitably destroyed by drumming. It is worth pondering that Guan Jie Drum was made in Tang Dynasty, which has nothing to do with Qin and Han Dynasties. Of course, Qin Huang in the Book of Filial Piety is "inaudible", but in the poem, the drums are written as old as not fade away. Qin Huang and Wu Han once heard it, but the poet never heard it again. It can be seen that the poet's original intention is not to recite the official street drum itself, but to focus on what this artistic image symbolizes-that eternal time, that time that keeps passing. Seven or eight sentences recite life and the official street drum, and then compare them: although people are cute, they are getting old; However, the Guan Jie drum will never grow old, only it "defends Nanshan alone". The omission of these two sentences has caused different interpretations. But if you think about it carefully, they are two opposites. The word "Jun" refers to the whole world, which may include "filial piety and harmony", but it does not necessarily refer to two emperors. Through two comparisons, it further highlights the insurmountable contradiction between limited life and infinite time. When the poem is written here, the meaning seems to have been expressed incisively and vividly. However, the poet didn't stop there, and the last two sentences suddenly came to his mind: the gods in the sky are bound to die, and only the drums in the official street will not die. Its drums and leaks last forever. Contrast is still used here, but life is no longer compared with drums, but with immortals and drums: the immortals in the sky have died several times but drums are always rumbling, and even the life span of immortals admired by the world is so short and sad compared with drums, so the short life span is more obvious. In this way, there are three meanings in an article. Finally, the imagination of being born to die is not only surprising, but also flashes the poet's deep sigh and insight into the world and life.
Guan Jie Drum vividly depicts and exaggerates the contradiction between limited life and infinite time. Some people think it is intended to criticize the theory of immortals. This evaluation is very limited. Judging from the poet Li He's life and all his poems, he lamented that life is short and time is fleeting, which should contain the element of "people with aspirations cherish short days". He was particularly sensitive and sad to see his life wasted. A remarkable artistic feature of this poem is that it skillfully shapes a symbolic artistic image of "official street drum" by linking the time of taking pictures with the drum sound of telling the time through an unusually active imagination. The concept of "Fu" is intangible, turning silence into sound and painting images into sensible images, so that readers can deeply understand the poet's thoughts and feelings through images in intense aesthetic activities.
The background of Guan Jie's drum creation is the 5th year of Tang Yuanhe (8 10). When Tang Xianzong and the prime ministers talked about immortals, they asked, "Are there really immortals?" Li Fan replied, "Qin Shihuang and Emperor Wudi learned magic and sought immortality. Look at the historical records and you will know the effect. " See History as a Mirror, Volume 238. At that time, Li He was working in Chang 'an. He must have heard something, so he used the drums in the street to answer Xian Zong's questions for this poem.
