Original text:
Holding an oil-paper umbrella, wandering alone in a long, long and lonely rain lane.
I hope to meet a girl as sad as lilac.
She is lilac color, lilac fragrance and lilac sadness.
Worry in the rain, worry about hesitation.
She lingered in this lonely rain lane with an oil-paper umbrella.
Like me, like me, walking silently.
Cold, sad, melancholy.

This poem was written in the summer of 1927. At that time, the whole country was in a state of white terror Because Dai Wangshu participated in progressive activities, he had to stay at a friend's house in Songjiang, chewing the disillusionment and pain after the failure of the Great Revolution in loneliness, and his heart was full of lost emotions and hazy hopes.
Poetry depicts a gloomy picture of Jiangnan alleys during the rainy season, which constitutes a lyrical artistic conception with strong symbolic color. Here, the poet figuratively described the dark and gloomy social reality at that time as a narrow and lonely "rain lane" without sunshine and vitality.
The lyric hero "I" is such a lonely wanderer in the rainy lane. "I" still cherish the longing and pursuit of beautiful ideals and hopes in loneliness. The "lilac-like girl" in the poem is a symbol of this beautiful ideal.
However, this beautiful ideal is slim and difficult to realize. This mentality is a true reflection of some young intellectuals who pursued after the failure of the Great Revolution. They were in a state of confusion because they could not find a way out under low political pressure.
In art, it also clearly embodies the creative characteristics of Dai Wangshu's early poems. It not only adopts symbolism and symbolism, but also has the pursuit of musical beauty. "Me", "Rain Lane" and "Girl" in the poem are not concrete portrayal of life.
But a lyrical image full of symbolic meaning. The whole poem also echoed with smooth rhythm and melody. The sense of melody mainly comes from the rhyme feet, except that each rhyme foot rhymes in the third and sixth lines, and each rhyme foot selects many sound groups corresponding to the rhyme feet. The application of overlap and repetition in poetry also enhances the musical effect.
Rain Lane adopts symbolic lyrical techniques. The narrow and gloomy rain lane in the poem, the lonely traveler wandering in the rain lane, and the girl as sad as lilac are all symbolic images.
These images constitute a symbolic artistic conception, which implicitly implies the author's confusion, sadness and expectation, giving people a hazy and profound aesthetic feeling.
In this poem, the lilac knot in the rain is used as a symbol of people's sadness. Obviously, Dai Wangshu absorbed the artistic conception and methods of describing sadness from these poems and applied them to form the artistic conception and image of Rain Lane.
Rain Lane is a lyric poem that emphasizes symbols and hints. Dai Wangshu put his feelings first, but he tried to hide them as much as possible by hinting, making them hazy and trying to cover up the truth.
Although Rain Lane also has the feeling of symbolism, it does not have some mysterious significance of symbolism. Understandably, with sincere feelings as the backbone, the content is classical, with little overhead feelings, extravagance but not hypocrisy, gorgeous and statutes.
The poem "Rain Lane", its "truth" hidden in "imagination", may be a poet's emotional experience, and this emotional experience in life has become the backbone of the poem.
This poem retains some sense of tragedy and loneliness in Rain Lane, which is implied by the rendering of the long and lonely rain lane, the decaying fence wall, the cold and sad rain in Mao Mao and the description of the vagrant's expectation for the girl like lilac.
Everything is not clear, not clear, but we understand and feel it. It is precisely because the poet does not limit the meaning of poetry to one level that we learn more from poetry.
