"Lovely crimson loves pale red" from which ancient poem?

"Lovely crimson loves pale red" comes from the fifth poem in Du Fu's group poem "Looking for Flowers Alone by the River".

Original text:

The water in front of the Yellow River flows eastward, giving people a sense of sleepiness and spring breeze in spring.

Clusters of peach blossoms bloom by the river. Are they dark red or light red?

The river in front of Huangshi Tower flows eastward. Warm spring makes people drowsy lazily, and I walk slowly against the warm spring breeze.

Clusters of peach blossoms seem to go unnoticed. Do you like dark red peach blossoms or light red peach blossoms? ?

Creation background

This group of poems was written in the spring of 76 1 year (the second year of Shangyuan in Tang Suzong) or 762 (the first year of Baoying in Tang Daizong) after Du Fu settled in Chengdu Caotang.

In 760 AD (the first year of Shangyuan), after suffering from war, Du Fu built a thatched cottage on the bank of Huanhuaxi in the western suburbs and found a temporary shelter. The following spring, I walked along the Jinjiang River to enjoy the flowers and wrote a group of poems called "Looking for Flowers Alone by the Riverside".

The poem is called "Looking for Flowers Alone", and the fifth song in the group is written in front of Miss Huang's tower to see flowers. "Yellowstone Tower is in front of the river, and the water flows eastward", and write down the specific location. "Spring is lazy and sleepy, leaning on the breeze" is about a person's fatigue. People who are warm in spring are easy to be lazy and tired, so they rest by the wind.

But this is to see the flowers better. Look at the sentence "Peach blossoms have no owner, lovely crimson loves light red". The words "love", "love crimson", "love light red" and "love this and love that" are stacked here, followed by the words "open and ownerless". "Open without the owner" means to open freely, as far as possible, wide and special, so the next sentence is even more gorgeous and beautiful, and the poem is like brocade.
