Whole poem
Translation:
Don't laugh at the muddy wine brewed in the twelfth lunar month. The harvest year is very bumper.
The mountains overlap and the water twists and turns. I'm afraid there is no way out. Suddenly, a mountain village appeared between willows and flowers.
The day of playing the flute and drums for the Spring Festival Club is coming, and the simple ancient style is still preserved.
In the future, if I can go out for a walk in the bright moonlight, I will definitely knock on your door at any time with a cane.
Creation background
This poem was written in the early spring of A.D. 1 167 (the third year of Song Xiaozong Avenue), and Lu You was retiring at home. However, he was not discouraged. He felt hope and light in rural life and poured this feeling into his own poetry creation. This poem was written in my hometown of Yin Shan.
Appreciate:
The first couplet shows the quiet and joyful atmosphere in the countryside in the harvest year. The word "chicken and dolphin" expresses all the hospitality of farmers. The word "don't laugh" expresses the poet's appreciation of the simple folk customs in rural areas.
What Zhuan Xu wrote is the scenery along the mountains and rivers, which contains philosophy and has been widely quoted for thousands of years. Such a smooth, beautiful, cheerful and lively poem seems to see the poet strolling among the verdant forests, and the clear mountain springs gurgling through the winding streams. The more lush the vegetation, the more difficult it is to distinguish the winding mountain roads. When I was at a loss, I suddenly saw the flowers flickering in front of me, and several peasant cottages were looming among the flower trees, and the poet suddenly felt suddenly enlightened.
The neck couplets, on the other hand, went from nature to personnel, depicting the rural customs in the early Southern Song Dynasty. It is not difficult for readers to understand the poet's deep affection for traditional culture.
As a result, the poet's pen changed, indicating that the poet has been "swimming" all day. At this time, the bright moon hung high, and the whole earth was shrouded in faint moonlight, which also dyed the village with a quiet color after the Spring Festival and became interesting. So these two words naturally flowed out of my chest: I hope that from now on, I can drink to the old farmer from time to time with crutches and Chai Fei. This situation is a great pleasure. The image of a poet who loves his hometown and is close to farmers is vividly on the paper.
