The Ballad of the Great Wall is a poem by Xi Murong, which originated from Qilixiang.
Original poem:
Song of the Great Wall-Xi Murong
Although there was a history of war between cities.
Although I took the branch and returned it.
How many customs, how many joys and sorrows.
You will always be a heartless building.
Squatting on the desolate top of the mountain
Look at human grievances coldly
Why can't I sing it to you?
Write what you can't write.
When I mention you, there will be a fire.
There's your body in the fire, Wan Li.
With your Millennium face
There are your clouds, your trees and your wind.
Chilechuan Yinshanxia
The moonlight should be like water tonight.
The Yellow River will still flow by you tonight.
Flowing into my sleepless dreams
The meaning of the article
The theme image-the Great Wall, also has a yearning for the Yellow River.
The main line of lyricism-yearning for hometown is also a reflection and introspection of history.
Pursuing the author's emotional course. Looking at history, highlighting the vicissitudes of the Great Wall.
Pour out your enthusiasm with the help of the Great Wall.
Relying on dreams, showing deep homesickness.
In poetry, the author's feelings are not directly told to you, but expressed through concrete images, that is, images. "Meaning" is the center of the author's expression, which sustains the author's thoughts and feelings; "Image" is a concrete and tangible thing. "Image" refers to the organic combination of objective image and subjective interest formed in the writer's mind, and also refers to the concrete image conveyed in the work and containing subjective interest. For example, the "Great Wall" in this paper is a tangible thing that entrusts the author with rich thoughts and feelings, that is, an image. Grasping images is the first step to truly interpret poetry. In this poem, the author's attachment to the motherland and hometown is invisible, intangible and abstract, while the author describes a series of pictures: the Great Wall, trees, clouds, wind, bright moon and Yellow River ... This painting blends with the author's thoughts and feelings, which will naturally reveal the author's feelings, such as "your clouds, your trees, your wind" and "your wind".
Poetry appreciation
1; The second section expresses the poet's attachment and praise to the Great Wall. The poet did not express his feelings directly, but wrote the position of the ancient Great Wall in his heart and its influence on himself very implicitly. "I can't sing you with my voice", "I can't write an article" and "I get angry when I mention you". Because the Great Wall has become a symbol of the immortal culture and national spirit of the nation, the motherland and the Chinese nation. Poets are attached to the Great Wall and their hometown, and regard the ancient Great Wall as their foundation and a place for the soul to rest in peace.
2; In the third part, the poet expresses his homesickness through dreams. The poet dreamed of his hometown in memory and imagination-Chilechuan and Yinshan Mountain in the moonlight. Through these two poems, we can see how profound and lasting the impression of the landscape and vegetation in my hometown is in the poet's heart, and the Yellow River, as a symbol of the Chinese nation, has always flowed in the poet's heart. Although the poet lives in a foreign country, he is very concerned about his hometown. The poet hopes to have a dream and return to his hometown in the dream, but it is difficult to have a good dream, because the deep homesickness makes it difficult for the poet to sleep. The word "sleepless" describes a wanderer's deep homesickness. Jumping on the paper is very touching.
3; In the poet's mind, the Great Wall is not only an objective image and a historical witness, but also a symbol of the history of national suffering and rich national heritage. Therefore, the songs of passionate poets will become silent and incomplete, but they will linger and become a complex.
