Du Mu's Yang Lu
Xueyi Sprite, Fish Shadow Creek. The blue mountains are reflected in the distance, and the night breeze in pear flower falls is a tree.
Egret is dressed in snow-white clothes, with snow-white hair and a sapphire mouth. They fish in groups in the stream, and their beautiful bodies are reflected in the clear stream.
Suddenly, they flew because of fear, with green hills on their backs and flying far away. The white figure dances like a pear flower in the evening breeze.
Precautions:
Egret: This refers to the egret, which has white feathers and long legs and can wade for fish and shrimp.
Sapphire: Blue-green jade.
Group hunting: Many egrets hunt together. Shadow of a stream: a shadow in a stream, describing a clear stream.
Bishan: refers to Qingshan.
Night breeze: falling in the night breeze and dancing with it.
Poetry appreciation:
"Snow clothes and snow make jade mouths, and a group of fishermen are in the shadow of the stream." The first two sentences are not particularly flattering, but simple realism. However, as soon as I put down my pen, the white and beautiful images of a group of "sons of Yi Xue" were all depicted, waiting for the habit and wit of catching fish and shrimp to be hidden in the shadow of the stream at sunset. At the same time, the poet's infatuation is also contained in it. Egret's white feathers are very beautiful, so it has the reputation of "Yi Xue" and "the son of Yi Xue".
The poet was attracted by this feature of the egret, so he cut people here to express the spirit of the egret and his infatuation. The combination of the word "snow" highlights the "shape" of the egret, and its "spirit" has not yet appeared. The poet skillfully put it in the scene of flying away and described it in detail. With the metaphor of "Bishan" and the ethereal brushwork of "Pear Flower", the spirit of the egret was fully revealed.
The third and fourth sentence: "The blue mountains are reflected in the distance, and the evening breeze in pear flower falls is a tree." The word "Jing" pushed the scene in front of us into the distance, and set off the flying egrets with "Bishan". This group of flying egrets decorated the turquoise distant mountains. The mountain is green, the heron is white, and the sunset is disappearing. This is a beautiful painting.
It's really a blend of scenery and nature. However, the poet is not satisfied with this. He then spread his wings of imagination, as if secretly asking himself: What is that little egret "reflecting the distant blue mountains"? Oh, just like the beautiful scene of snow-white pears floating down in the quiet and gentle evening breeze!
