"Quatrains" by Li Shangyin of the Tang Dynasty
The poem was written and completed at the age of ten, and the cold and ashes left the candle to move away from the emotion. ?
On the Danshan Road with thousands of tung flowers, the sound of young phoenixes is clearer than that of old phoenixes.
3. General idea:
I was able to compose impromptu poems at the age of ten. Most of the candles at the banquet were burned out, and the ashes in the wicks also cooled. The farewell banquet is coming to an end, and everyone present is emotionally moved. On the distant Danshan Road, beautiful tung flowers cover the field. From time to time, the clear and mellow call of the young phoenix comes from the Danshan Road, which echoes the bright call of the old phoenix, making it even more pleasant to the ears.
Introduction to the poet:
Li Shangyin (about 813-about 858), also known as Yishan, also known as Yuxi (Xi) Sheng, also known as Fan Nansheng, was born in Hanoi, Huaizhou (now Jiaozuo, Henan). Qinyang), born in Xingyang, Zhengzhou (now Xingyang City, Zhengzhou, Henan Province), is a famous poet in the late Tang Dynasty. He is known as "Little Li Du" together with Du Mu and "Wen Li" together with Wen Tingyun.
Li Shangyin was one of the few poets in the late Tang Dynasty and even the entire Tang Dynasty who deliberately pursued poetic beauty. He is good at poetry writing, and his parallel prose has high literary value. His poems have novel ideas and beautiful styles. In particular, some love poems and untitled poems are sentimental, beautiful and moving, and are widely read. However, some poems (represented by Jin Se) are too obscure and difficult to understand. There is a saying that "poets always love Xikun and hate that no one writes Zheng Jian."
In the second year of Emperor Wenzong's reign (837), Li Shangyin became a Jinshi and served as Secretary, Provincial Secretary, Hongnong Wei, etc. Because he was involved in the political whirlpool of the "Niu-Li Party Controversy", he was marginalized and struggled throughout his life. In the late Dazhong year of Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty (about 858), Li Shangyin died of illness in Zhengzhou and was buried in his hometown of Xingyang. Some people also say that he was buried at the foot of Qinghua Beishan in the east plain of Yongdian, Huaizhou (now Wangzhuang Town, Qinyang Mountain), his ancestral home.
