The Original Text and Appreciation of Lando's Poem Ian Yi

Yi anqi

Lando [England]

Ian Yi, a little trouble in your past,

Like small ripples on a sunny river;

Your happiness grows like a daisy on the grass,

After being cut down, it grows back, and it is equally happy.

(translated by Li, selected from Qu)

Lando (1775-1864) is a love song, and the lyric hero "Ian yee" in the poem can be regarded as the poet's lover. For this girl, the poet completely abandoned the specific image description, and he only paid attention to the aesthetic feelings given to him by the two contradictory emotional types of "worry" and "happiness" expressed by the lyric hero.

Generally speaking, different kinds of emotions have different physiological response patterns, especially the two bipolar emotions of "worry" and "happiness", and the physiological responses of the subjects are naturally very different. But in our poet's pen, the heroine's "worry" and "happiness" seem to have the same aesthetic feeling. The reasons are as follows: First, the poet loves his girlfriend deeply, and his passion for his girlfriend naturally makes him regard his girlfriend as a beautiful whole. In this way, the artistic perception with emotion will inevitably be exaggerated and deformed, and any part, action and emotional reaction of her will become a beautiful icon in his eyes; Secondly, it is because the poet used two extremely beautiful natural images as metaphors here. The contrast between "small ripples of sunshine on the river" and "small troubles", and the contrast between "daisies grow from grass/cut it down and grow again" and "happiness" will arouse readers' strong psychological pleasure.
