Viewing the Sea is a four-character poem written by Cao Cao, a poet in the late Eastern Han Dynasty. The whole poem is concise in language, rich in imagination, magnificent, desolate and tragic.
The whole poem is as follows:
On the east coast, climb Jieshi Mountain to see the vast sea. The sea is so vast that the islands stand high on the sea.
Trees and paraquat are very lush. Autumn wind makes trees make sad sounds, and the sea is surging. The movement of the sun and the moon seems to come from the vast ocean.
A trip to the sun and the moon, if unexpected; Han is a talented star, if you take him by surprise. I am glad to use this poem to express my inner desire.
The translation is as follows:
To the east, climb the high Jieshi Mountain and enjoy the boundless sea. How vast the sea is, and the islands in the sea are towering.
Surrounded by lush trees and flowers.
The bleak wind came, the vegetation shook, and the waves in the sea surged. The sun and the moon rise and set, as if from this vast ocean.
The bright stars in the Milky Way also seem to emerge from the embrace of the sea. I am very happy, so I use this poem to express my inner ambition. Oh, I'm so happy! I just use poetry to express my inner ambition.
Extended data:
The first four lines describe the scene of the sea, which is dynamic and quiet. For example, "autumn wind is bleak and the waves are rough" and "what is the water like" describe dynamic scenery, while "trees are full of vegetation" and "mountains and islands are full of scenery" describe static scenery.
"The water is full of water and the mountain island is covered with scenery" is the general impression of seeing the sea at the beginning, which is a bit like the outline of a painting. In this rippling sea, the first thing you see is the towering mountain islands, which are dotted on the flat and wide sea, making the sea look magical and spectacular. These two sentences roughly outline the prospect of the sea, which will be described in depth at different levels below.
"There are many trees and plenty of herbs. The autumn wind is bleak, and Hongbo surges. " The first two sentences specifically describe the mountain island: although the autumn wind is bleak and the vegetation is withered, the trees on the island are lush and the grass is flourishing, giving people a poetic feeling.
The last two sentences are a further description of the sentence "What is water like?". Look carefully, the sea in the bleak autumn wind is actually a huge wave, surging and undulating. It shows that in the face of bleak autumn wind, the author still has an "ambitious" mind.
"The trip to the sun and the moon, if unexpected; Xinghan is brilliant, if it is unexpected. " Using the author's imagination, I wrote the great ambition of the author Cao Cao. The previous description highlights the momentum and strength of the sea in front of readers; In the rich association, the author's broad mind, open mind and grand ambition are displayed. It means a mentality of taking the world into your own hands, just like the sea holds everything.
"Fortunately, Lian, the song is to be sung." This is a cliche in the chorus, which has nothing to do with the content of the poem. It is also pointed out that it was sung by Yuefu.
