Interpretation of the Poetic Meaning of Wang Anshi's Yuan Ri

Wang Anshi in Yuan Dynasty [Song Dynasty]

Besides firecrackers, the spring breeze warms Tu Su.

Tu Su: The name of the wine.

The rising sun sheds light on doors of each household, New peachwood charm is put up to replace the old.

T: The way the sun rises.

New mahogany: a new symbol of mahogany, a mahogany board used to exorcise evil spirits.

Through the combination of images, this poem creates a lively scene: setting off firecrackers, drinking Tu Su, opening the door, welcoming the first sunshine of the New Year, feeling the spring breeze, putting on new peach charms and praying for a peaceful New Year ... The whole scene is beaming. Writing poetry is ostensibly to welcome the Spring Festival, but in fact it is to express the happy mood after realizing one's political ambition.

On the first day of the first month ... put a picture on the chicken door, with a reed rope hanging on it and a peach symbol beside it, so that all ghosts are afraid of it.
