How do I love you? Let me count them one by one.
I love you as much as I can
Deep, wide and high-I explore.
The existence of God in Xuan Ming and its deep thinking.
I love you just like under the sunshine and candlelight.
Then you don't have to say it every day Without thinking, I
Love you like a man fighting for justice;
I love you purely, as they bow their heads before praise,
I love you with my childhood beliefs; I love you
With enthusiasm, it is like the bitterness of the past;
I love you like that saint who seems to disappear with me.
And lost love, I love you all my life.
Breath, smile and tears-if it's God's.
Will, then, I will love you more when I die!
(translated by Fang Ping)
The combination of Elizabeth Barrett and Bai Langning became a much-told story in the history of literature. Their deep love and affection reached the acme in this poem.
Miss Balet, who lives alone in a boudoir and often lies on her deathbed, has become the main theme of her life, and earthly love is an unattainable luxury for her. She's pregnant with the Bible, and she's called Amen, so she's ready to talk about mutilations. When the strong light of love outside the boudoir shone on her head, she was dizzy, uneasy, scared and refused. Finally, after she confirmed that the fierce light was really directed at her, she nervously put away her Bible and threw herself at the eager sun with open arms. In the face of hard-won love, she opened her heart, let go of her voice and sang the flame-like love in her heart.
Love cannot be measured by size. The clever Miss Balet expressed her heart with superb poetic skills. Its specific technique is to use virtual images and the most common facts to simile or imply abstract love. Therefore, the depth of love is like the god in Xuan Ming-unfathomable; Love is as wide as eating every day.
The poet also deepened the description step by step from the brave, pure, intense, lasting and eternal aspects of love, and finally reached * * *. Love is like "life/breath, smiles and tears-if it is God/will, I will love you even more when I die!" " "The intense love has undoubtedly reached a white-hot level.
In his poems, the poet loves Bai Langning with "the bitterness of the past" and compares it from the opposite side. Readers who know the poet's life experience must understand that this metaphor is very appropriate and personalized. Any specific metaphor or explanation is flawed in the eyes of poets, so poets often compare it with some non-specific metaphors, such as "deep divine grace", "fighting for justice", "childhood belief", "full of bitterness" and "disappearing love". These metaphors seem dull, but once written by a poet, they are novel, which deepens the depth and breadth of love and makes poetry feel ethereal.
