The thin jade is Xiao Xiaoyi's water head, the wind is clear and the dew is suitable for autumn. He even teaches the immortal to stand next to him, and he is the best in the world.
Appreciation
From the ninth year of Tiansheng (1031) to the second year of Mingdao (1033), Qian Weiyan served as the magistrate of Henan Prefecture (now Luoyang, Henan), and his poems were written here.
Praise thin bamboo and crane as first-class elegant things. Chen Yan's "Essence of Song Poetry" commented on this poem: "It has status and is a first-class human language." When discussing poetry, what we can see is very true, but the reality of Qian's people is nothing like Xiaodi. Yuan Haowen's "Thirty Poems on Poems" says: "The pictures in my heart are always distorted, and my writings would rather see the people again." This is the sentiment.
This is a poem about bamboo, which actually expresses the poet's sentiment.
The poem uses water to set off bamboo, and it is placed on an autumn night with clear wind and white dew, which sets off the mood of the poet. The thin and strong bones and fluttering charm of bamboo are combined with the imaginary white crane. What the poet yearns for is a kind of aloofness, elegance and refinement.
It means: The clouds in the distance are slowly floating on the clear water, the breeze is blowing, and the night dew is slowly dripping. My beloved crane and I are standing together. Maybe this is the world. First-rate beauty. .
The Song Dynasty Qian Wei's performance "Slender clouds and Xiao Xiaoyi water heads, the wind is suitable for clear nights and the dew is suitable for autumn. It also teaches immortals to stand next to each other, which is the best in the world." ("Thinking of Bamboo and Crane") On the surface It is a longing for a noble and refined life like floating clouds and wild cranes. Some poetry critics know people and comment on the world, pointing out that this poem is "a kind of complaint at its core." It is a true insight and can be seen in one word. Wang Yucheng, another poet of the Song Dynasty, loved bamboo all his life and wrote many poems about bamboo. Especially after he was demoted to Shangzhou due to false accusations in the second year of Chunhua, he wrote: "Who grows hundreds of poles of Xiaoxiao? I am called an idle official with Yin. I don't compete with the beauty of the young to compete with the beauty of spring, but stay lonely and chaste to wait for the cold of the year." ("Bamboo in the Official House") is the expression of the poet's sadness in the face of the cold county and unbearable time, as well as the relocation of the guests. And later, "I can't see the bamboo on my clothes, but I can't stand it for a long time by listening to the bamboo." ("Happy Snow Yi Zhongxian") and "Dream breaks the idle window half drunk, the moonlight is thin and snowy. Mo Yanguan Sanwu I am so restrained that I put on my clothes all night and saw this gentleman." ("Watching Bamboo on a Snowy Night") is a self-relief in the face of the ups and downs of life.
