The original texts of the first and second poems of Wang Zhihuan's Liangzhou Ci are as follows:
Two Poems of Liangzhou Ci by Wang Zhihuan
The first poem
The Yellow River is far above the white clouds, and it is a lonely city of Wan Ren Mountain.
why should Qiangdi blame the willow? The spring breeze doesn't pass Yumenguan.
Secondly,
Khan looked at the clouds in the north and killed Madeng altar several times.
The son of heaven of the Han family is now in SHEN WOO, and he refuses to go home with his relatives.
Vernacular translation:
One
The Yellow River seems to be rushing from the white clouds, and Yumenguan stands alone in the mountains.
why use the Qiang flute to play the plaintive "Yangliuqiu" to complain about the delay in spring? It turns out that the spring breeze can't blow around Yumenguan!
Secondly,
Turkish leaders came to the Central Plains to seek relatives, looked north at their own territory, saw the Fuyundui shrine to the north of the border, and recalled that they had killed horses here many times in the past, and then made an attack on the Tang Dynasty, which was quite smug.
But now SHEN WOO, the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, is aloof and refuses to kiss the Turks, so this trip to the Central Plains has to come to nothing.
Introduction to Two Poems of Liangzhou:
Two Poems of Liangzhou is a group of poems by Wang Zhihuan, a poet in the Tang Dynasty.
The first poem is desolate and tragic. Although it is full of complaints, it is not negative and decadent, showing the broad-minded people in the prosperous Tang Dynasty. The use of contrast in poetry and prose makes the poetic expression more tense. The language is euphemistic and precise, and the expression of thoughts and feelings is just right.
The second poem reflects the relationship between the Tang Dynasty and the northern minority regimes, and it involves some historical events of Tang Xuanzong's treatment of Turkic issues. This poem eulogizes the rationality and restraint of the Tang Dynasty in dealing with ethnic relations from the side, and reflects the strength of the Tang Dynasty through the disappointment of the Turkish leaders in seeking relatives, which is full of national pride.
