one

At dusk, I want to go to the high-rise building alone, and the cross lovers on the stairs don't come, and the crescent moon is like a hook.

Secondly,

Hideteru high-rise building in the southeast wind, people in where will you go sing "Shizhou".

Even if Mei likes Chunshan and Chunshan likes Mei, I don't know how sad it is.

translate

First song

At dusk, I still want to go to a tall building alone. The stairs cross lovers and the crescent moon is like a hook.

Lilacs are in bud, and at the same time, they are sad about the spring breeze.

The second song

At sunrise, high-rise buildings are illuminated in the southeast, and people who are worried about going upstairs are singing "Zhou Shi".

Even if the eyebrows are like spring mountains and spring mountains are like eyebrows, I don't know how much sadness I have to bear.

To annotate ...

Jade ladder crossing: gorgeous ladder crossing, no reason.

Banana does not show: the banana heart is tightly wrapped and does not show. Lilac knot: the bud of lilac is about to bloom, which is also a metaphor for sadness.

Zhou Shi: Look at Yuefu Poems, which is a work of thinking about women and cherishing the future.

Always: even if. In ancient times, women liked to use cyan and black pigments to thrush.

Introduction of works

Two Poems for Gifts is a seven-character quatrain written by Li Shangyin, a poet in the Tang Dynasty. This poem is a gift for a friend. Both of them wrote it in opposition, thinking of a woman's melancholy scene in the sunset. The first song is about the heroine's boredom at dusk, overlooking the scenery seen in the courtyard downstairs, which increased her sadness; The second part is about the infinite sadness of the heroine when she goes upstairs in the morning. The success of these two poems lies in the fusion of scenery and emotion, things and people, and the fusion of "comparison" and "xing". They are rigorous in structure and unpretentious. The two poems have beautiful artistic conception and endless implications.

works appreciation

The first song is about parting at dusk. In a woman's tone, write the sadness that she can't meet her lover. The time written in the poem is spring dusk. The poet expresses her inner feelings from the scenes of the moon, plantains and lilacs seen by the protagonist in the poem by means of scene expression.

In a word or two, "upstairs at night" points out the time and place. Next, the word "longing for rest" vividly describes the woman's action: she went to the roof and tried to look far away, but she stopped sadly. Here, not only let readers see the posture of a woman, but also reveal her helpless expression. She wants to see her lover, but she still wants to rest. The "Jade Ladder Crossing" in the poem refers to the Jade Ladder Crossing, which means that lovers are blocked and cannot meet each other. This connection means that women are eager to see their lovers, so they should look outside; But it suddenly occurred to me that he must not come and had to stop. Desire is still closed, and women's complex and contradictory psychological activities and lonely and boring disappointment are skillfully and realistically written. The book The Moon Is Like a Hook is called The Hook in the Moon. It not only highlights the loneliness and sadness of the environment, but also has symbolic significance: the lack of a full moon is like two lovers can't meet each other.

Three or four sentences reveal women's inner feelings by writing scenes. The second sentence, the lack of the moon is like a hook, which is the vision of the sky when a woman looks up; These two sentences are the scenery on the ground near a woman's head. High and low. The banana here is a banana with an unfurled heart, and the lilacs here are not lilacs with blooming petals, but buds that can't be sealed. They * * * face the cold spring breeze in the evening, with endless sadness. This is not only a true description of the real scene in front of the woman, but also a description of taking people by borrowing things. Banana is used as a metaphor for lovers, and lilac is used as a metaphor for the woman herself, suggesting that both of them are concentric in different places and are worried about not meeting each other. The sorrow of things rises, and the sorrow of people is deep, which is "xing"; The sorrow of things, that is, the sorrow of people, is also a "comparison." Banana cloves are not only carefully arranged by poets, but also seen by yourself, so it is very natural to pick them at will.

The second part is about the infinite sadness of the heroine when she goes upstairs in the morning. The first sentence is to use ancient Yuefu poems. No one wrote this sentence, but someone has written it. People can think that the heroine is facing the sunrise and standing on the floor. The second sentence is specifically written that the sad heroine is singing a sad song. The two sentences are picturesque and the characters are lifelike.

Three or four sentences are also famous sentences, focusing on the frown of the heroine. Describing the heroine's eyebrows as green hills is originally a metaphor for the shape of green hills, and frowning is not the heroine's original intention. But the poet deliberately wrote the heroine, that is, he deliberately portrayed his eyebrows as green hills with indigo naturalis, and the next sentence was born from the green hills, which made the poem tortuous and meaningful. Even if a divorced man paints his eyebrows as green hills, it is difficult for him to accommodate too much sadness. It is a clever idea to turn a sad face into a green eyebrow, which can't contain sadness. This new ingenious contrast makes the abstract endless sadness and separation vivid. The ingenious idea of sweeping the castle peak is not blunt or artificial. This is all natural. Looking from the tall building, you can immediately see the green hills. Castle Peak looks like the heroine's eyebrows. The poet became interested in writing, and after ingenious association, he melted this famous mourning sentence.

The success of these two poems lies in the fusion of scenery and emotion, things and people, and the fusion of "comparison" and "xing". They are rigorous in structure and unpretentious. In particular, "the banana does not show lilac knots, and the spring breeze is sad in the same direction." Two sentences, with beautiful artistic conception and endless meanings, have always been praised by people, and the first sentence is specially marked in Poetry Talk, which is deeply appreciated.

Creation background

Body double refers to the poem written by the giver, or it may be that the poet deliberately gave such a title, but there is no real body double, because this kind of poem mostly writes about acacia. Neither of these two poems has a date, and the specific creation date is unknown.
