Wang Wei in Tang Dynasty
The empty mountains are bathed in a new rain, and feel the early autumn at night.
The bright moon shed clear light from the cracks and cleared the fountain on the rocks.
The bamboo forest is sonorous, the washerwoman returns, and the lotus leaves are swaying to get on the canoe.
Spring spring might as well give it a rest, and the autumn sun can stay on the hills for a long time.
Translation:
The empty mountain is bathed in a new rain, and the arrival of night makes people feel that it is early autumn.
The moon is clear and clear, and the clear spring is flowing.
The bamboo forest was noisy until the washerwoman came back, and the lotus leaves swayed like canoes.
The wheat straw in spring might as well let it rest, and the prince and grandson in the mountains can stay in autumn.

This poem is a masterpiece of landscape, which embodies the poet's noble feelings and pursuit of ideal realm in poetic imagery. "The empty mountain after the rain stands in the autumn evening." The poem clearly says that there are female fishing boats, but the poet writes "the empty mountain".
This is because the dense trees on the mountain cover up the traces of people's activities. The so-called "there seems to be no one on the empty mountain, but I think I heard a voice" (Chai Lu). Because there are few people here, "Who knows that there are people coming in the gorge, and outsiders only see the empty mountains and thick clouds" ("Peach Garden Tour"), naturally someone comes to Mount Fuji.
The word "empty mountain" points out that besides, it is like a paradise. In the early days of Shan Yu, everything was new. It was early autumn evening. It is conceivable that the air is fresh and the scenery is wonderful.
"Moonlight in the pine forest, crystal stone in the stream." It was dark, but there was a bright moon in the sky. The flowers have withered, but there are pine trees covered. The mountain spring is clear, flowing through the rocks, like a pure white plain, shining in the moonlight, vividly showing the quiet and clear natural beauty.
Wang Wei's Ode to the Four Saints on Economy once praised the noble sentiments of the two sages, saying that "there is no evil wood in the shade, and drinking water must be extreme." The poet himself is such a noble-minded person. He once said: "It is better to drink its water and rest in the wild forest, instead of sitting on the beam and seeing the princes in the rugged." This month, pine trees and clear springs on rocks are exactly the ideal realm he pursues.
These two sentences are picturesque, free and easy, and have little strength. This touching writing of natural scenery has reached the level of artistic perfection, which is really beyond the ordinary people's ability to learn.
"The bamboo whispers that the laundry girl returns, and the lotus leaves bend in front of the fishing boat." A burst of joy and laughter broke out in the bamboo forest. It was some innocent girls who washed their clothes and came back with a smile. The graceful lotus leaves spread out to both sides one after another, overturning countless pearl-like crystal drops. It's a fishing boat going down the river, which cuts the tranquility of the moonlight in the lotus pond.
There are such carefree, hard-working and kind people under this pine and bright moon and among this green bamboo and violet. This pure and beautiful picture of life reflects the poet's ideal of living a quiet simple living, and at the same time, it shows his aversion to dirty officialdom from the opposite side. These two sentences are cleverly written, but the pen does not show traces, which makes people feel unique.
The poet wrote "Bamboo Noisy" and "Lotus Moving" first, because the Huan girl was hidden in the bamboo forest and the fishing boat was covered with lotus leaves. At first, I didn't see it. It was not until I heard the noise of the bamboo forest and saw the lotus leaves in full bloom that I found the Huannv and the Lotus Boat. This writing is more realistic and poetic.
The two couplets in the middle of the poem are all about scenery, but each has its own emphasis. Zhuan Xu re-writes, fragrant and clear; Neck ties focus on writing people and hope for political communication with people. At the same time, the two complement each other. Spring water, pine, bamboo and purple can be said to be a portrayal of the poet's noble sentiment and an ideal environment for the poet.
Since the poet is so noble, and he found a satisfactory paradise in that seemingly "empty mountain", he couldn't help saying, "My friend's prince, spring has passed, and you are still here. What does it matter? ! "
It turned out that "The Songs of the South Call Hermits" said: "When the king returns, he can't stay in the mountains for a long time!" The poet's experience is just the opposite. He felt that "in the mountains" was better than "in the DPRK", clean and simple, and he could stay away from officialdom and lead a totally clean life, so he decided to retire.
An important artistic technique of this poem is to express the poet's personality beauty and an ideal social beauty with natural beauty. On the surface, this poem only uses the method of "Fu" to shape mountains and rivers, and gives a detailed and touching description of the scenery. Actually, it's full of comparisons. The poet expresses his ambition through the description of the scenery, which is rich in content and intriguing.
