Translation of vernacular Chinese: On the way to visit the water conservancy project, I married Tu Shanshi's daughter. Yu didn't have time to hold a wedding with her, so he went to the south. Tu Shanshi's daughter asked the maid to meet Yu in southern Tushan, so she wrote a song, which sang, "Wait for someone." .
Extended data history legend:
In ancient times, China was flooded everywhere. Emperor Yao appointed Yu in charge of water conservancy. Dayu is very serious and responsible. He led the person in charge of water conservancy to travel all over China, and never entered the house three times.
Once, he took charge of water to Tushan (now Huaiyuan County, Bengbu City) in Bozhou, Anhui Province, and met and fell in love with Tushan barren woman. At this time, Yu is thirty years old and should have married early. But Yu still put people's interests first. On the fourth day of their marriage, he bid farewell to Tu Shanshi's daughter and ran to save water.
After Dayu left, Tu Shanshi woman waited for her husband Dayu to come back at home every day. I couldn't wait for it at home, so I ran to the hillside on the south side of Tushan.
As the days passed, the woman who painted the stone looked all over the autumn water, but I didn't come back. She couldn't help sighing and chanting this sentence: I'm waiting for someone!
This is a poem. Waiting for someone is waiting for the person I hope. "Yi" is an interjection in ancient Chinese, which is equivalent to "Ah!" In modern Chinese. .
A word "Yi" contains rich and complicated feelings: longing to see the person you love, anxiety, hesitation and helplessness.
It also created a vivid image: an affectionate woman standing on the top of the mountain, expecting, sighing and crying. "Poetry is precious and implicit" is a precious tradition of China's poetry. This poem can be said to be the oldest example in China.
