The whole poem "Fragrant Osmanthus fragrans":
Sweet osmanthus fragrans
Li Qingzhao Song Dynasty
A dull and light corpus luteum is soft. Love is gone, only fragrance remains. Why light blue and deep red? It's a first-class flower
Ding Mei is jealous, but Ju should be ashamed. Draw an aperture to crown the Mid-Autumn Festival. A poet can be heartless in thought, but he got nothing in those days.
Simple appreciation:
This poem "Partridge Sky" is a poem praising Guangxi, which has a unique style and is quite popular in the Song Dynasty, that is, expressing one's feelings through discussion.
"The yellow is faint and the corpus luteum is soft, and the feelings are far away." The word 14 is not only spiritual, but also describes the unique charm of osmanthus. The former sentence focuses on "color" and body; The last sentence focuses on chanting, highlighting the word "Xiang". There are three kinds of osmanthus, the white one is called Yin Gui, the yellow one is called Jingui, and the red one is called Dangui. Often born on high mountains, evergreen in winter and summer, with similar forests and no miscellaneous trees. Many people bloom in autumn, and their flowers are fragrant. The words "dim" and "light yellow" show that osmanthus fragrans does not please people with its bright luster and charming colors. Although the color is light and dark, it is soft in nature and Wen Ya, and it has its own feeling. It is far from the mountain, but the rich fragrance often floats in the world.
Let's turn to the discussion. "Why light blue and deep red? It is a first-class flower. " Reflecting the aesthetic view of Qingzhao, she thinks that gender beauty and inner beauty are particularly important. The word "why" waved away the flowers that won only by the beauty of "color" and introduced the sweet-scented osmanthus with elegant color, rich aroma and high quality. "First among flowers" was the first discussion. "Plums are a hindrance, chrysanthemums should be ashamed, and painting columns will open the Mid-Autumn Festival." Have a second discussion. Even the plum blossom that Lian Qingzhao loves all his life is inevitably jealous in front of the "hazy, yellowish and soft" osmanthus. The chrysanthemum praised by the author can only hide its face and feel ashamed. Then from the festival point of view, osmanthus fragrans is called the crown of flowers in the Mid-Autumn Festival. "A poet can think mercilessly, why didn't he receive it then?" This is the third discussion. Legend has it that when Qu Yuan wrote Li Sao, he collected famous and precious flowers in the world to show the virtue of a gentleman's self-cultivation, except osmanthus. Qingzhao was very wronged by osmanthus, so he rudely criticized the sage, saying that he was not considerate enough to miss osmanthus in the Mid-Autumn Festival, which was a great pity.
This poem is based on flowers, and compared with plum blossoms, it is demonstrated in three layers, vividly expressing the poet's sincere praise for osmanthus. Osmanthus fragrans is not outstanding in appearance and unattractive in color, but it is "hazy and yellowish", "profound in feeling" and fragrant, which is a portrayal of the poet's character. This word shows the poet's outstanding aesthetic taste and is worth pondering.
