The whole poem is as follows: weeds are in full bloom beside Suzaku Bridge, and the sun is setting at the corner of Wuyi Lane. Swallows under the eaves of Wang Dao and Xie An have now flown into the homes of ordinary people.
The Suzaku Bridge is covered with overgrown weeds and small wild flowers. Broken wall, Wuyi alley, is the sunset. Swallows that once built their nests in front of Xie Wang Hall now fly into the homes of ordinary people.
Appreciate:
The first sentence is "Wild grass flowers beside Suzaku Bridge", which spans the Qinhuai River in Nanjing and is the only way from downtown to Wuyi Lane. The bridge and Wuyi Lane on the south bank are not only geographically adjacent, but also historically related. In the Eastern Jin Dynasty, Wuyi Township was a inhabited area of Tujia people in Gaomen, where Wang Dao, the founding father, and Xie An, who commanded the Battle of Feishui, lived. The heavy building decorated with two bronze finches on the ancient bridge was built by Xie An. Literally, Suzaku Bridge is even opposite Wuyi Lane. Using Suzaku Bridge to sketch the environment of Wuyi Lane not only conforms to the geographical reality, but also creates the aesthetic feeling of antithesis and evokes relevant historical associations.
The second sentence, "Sunset at the entrance of Wuyi Lane", shows that Wuyi Lane is not only set in the background of the dilapidated and desolate ancient bridge, but also presented in the afterglow of the sunset. The word "oblique" in the sentence corresponds to the word "flower" in the previous sentence. As a verb, it is the dynamic of writing the scene. "Sunset", the sunset in the west, and then click the word "oblique" to highlight the bleak scene of the sunset. Wuyi Lane, which was originally in its heyday, should have returned home with clothes on. Now, with a touch of oblique light, the author completely enveloped Wuyi Lane in a lonely and desolate atmosphere.
"In the old society, Wang Xietang flew into the homes of ordinary people." The poet turned his brush strokes to swallows nesting over Wuyi Lane, so that people could identify the flying direction of swallows. Today, Wuyi Lane has lived in the homes of ordinary people. In order to make readers clearly understand the poet's intention, the author points out that these swallows flying into people's homes used to be old swallows living on the eaves of Wang Xiequan's high hall. The word "old times" gives the swallow the identity of a historical witness. The word "ordinary" especially emphasizes how different the residents today are from the past. From this, readers can clearly hear the author's infinite feelings about this change.
