The book of songs-those distant lyrics

original text

Guan Guan pheasant dove, in Hezhou;

A beautiful and virtuous woman is a good spouse of a gentleman.

Interlaced shepherd's purse, flowing from left to right;

A beautiful and virtuous woman wakes up to pursue her.

I can't wait, and I'm thinking;

I feel at ease, tossing and turning.

Staggered shepherd's purse, picked from left to right;

A beautiful and virtuous woman came to her with a couple and a couple.

Staggered leeks, left and right;

A beautiful and virtuous woman rings the bell to please her.

"Smell Speech" Theater

One day, a man was walking by the river and looking around. He saw a pigeon standing in the middle of the river and said,

Pigeons are standing in the water, chirping, and even the grass wants to go downstream and be close to you.

I also have a dove in my heart-gentle and generous. I am attached to her and want to marry her. I want to pursue her, but I'm afraid I can't impress her, so I can't sleep at night.

You see, the water plants in the river are all around the pheasant dove, trying to get it. My dear girl, are there any people around you who are always trying to please you like these aquatic plants?

Thinking about thinking, I am very worried.

Dear girl, I hope you don't blame me for being abrupt. I am willing to start with you as a friend and solve your worries.

Dear girl, I hope you don't blame my height. I want to impress you with drum music and make you happy.

Guanju is the first and most familiar article in the whole Book of Songs. I remember what I expected most at school was to listen to the teacher understand this poem. Although I didn't understand the lingering feelings in the poem at that time, I found it catchy and charming.

It is true that The Book of Songs was originally a collection of lyrics from the Western Zhou Dynasty to the mid-Spring and Autumn Period. Due to different styles and purposes, it was divided into three parts: style, elegance and ode.

Wind, also known as national wind, contains folk songs from fifteen countries. Most of the contents in the poems are related to folk life, and the daily necessities, which reflect ordinary people, occupy the largest space in the Book of Songs, accounting for more than half.

Elegant music is divided into elegant music and Xiaoya, which is the "correct voice" and "model" of music in past dynasties. "Daya" contains epics of the founding of the People's Republic of China and court meetings in past dynasties, mostly "political comments"; Xiaoya reflects the living conditions above the aristocratic class.

Ode is for the purpose of offering sacrifices to ancestral temples. It contains the poems of the royal family offering sacrifices, praying for a bumper harvest and thanking the gods in the past dynasties, accounting for the least space, only one tenth.

As a "lyric poem" at that time, The Book of Songs was mainly lyrical, so the poetry of later generations also took lyricism as the main development direction. But Confucius once said that "poetry" makes people warm and sincere. It can be seen that the Book of Songs is restrained and peaceful in expressing personal feelings, which has deeply influenced the lyrical way of later poems. In addition, the content of poems in The Book of Songs completely reflects the daily life and experience of real people, and there is no transcendental association as we imagined, thus laying the foundation for the realism and routinization of later poems.

People often say that the Book of Songs has six meanings, namely, wind, elegance, ode, fu, comparison and prosperity.

Style, elegance and praise are the three major parts, and Fu, Bi and Xing are the three ways of expression. Fu: it refers to the layout, which is a general statement, including the layout of the scene; Comparison: that is, metaphor, that is, metaphor we understand, for example, in Guanluo, "beauty" is compared to "pheasant dove"; Xing is a special way of expression, that is, what you say at the beginning is what you see, and what you think is what you get from what you see, such as the scene described at the beginning of Guan Ju in an independent river.

As Mozi Meng Gong said, there are more than 300 poems, all of which can be sung, recited and sung. The poems included in The Book of Songs can not only read the content, but also sing the rhythm. Why not let people put it down ~

There were two or three firecrackers outside the window, and I was surprised that the Spring Festival had already begun.

Say goodbye to me in the radial mirror, I don't wander around arm in arm.

Tomorrow is a small year, and the taste of the year is getting heavier and heavier. Whether you are going home, on your way home, or unable to go home, I hope everyone can have a happy New Year!

Ok, that's all for today. If you want to continue to understand those charming beautiful poems and beautiful things, then move your fingers to pay attention to "smell speech" ~
