"Qing Ping Le·Cai Fang Ren Yao" (Zhang Yan) original text and translation

Guests see a lot of grass in spring, but they are always distracted by poems and sorrows. Last year the swallows were at the end of the world, but whose house are the swallows this year? Listening to the rain at night during the third month of the month is not a time to encourage flowers. Appreciation: Cherishing spring is the eternal theme of poets. When the feeling of cherishing spring's life experience and the thought of homeland are intertwined, the feeling of cherishing spring will be greatly deepened. Appreciation: Zhang Yan's poems are famous for their "sorrow for autumn". The mood of separation and farewell, and all kinds of emotions can be derived from the autumn scenery. For example, "Qing Ping Le" (Hou Xun Qi Duan) is a masterpiece of "Sad Autumn". However, his "spring-breaking" works are also unique. One "autumn" and another "spring", the scenery is different, but the feelings they express come from the same source - the feeling of losing a country and the pain of losing a family. This word is his masterpiece of "hurt spring". There are two sentences in the film "Cai Fang Ren Yao". The first sentence says that the spring is bright and the grass is red and green. This is the time to enjoy flowers and pick green flowers. However, at this time, no one is there. The beautiful scenery, singing and dancing in the past, and the crowded scenes have been swept away. null. The latter sentence embodies the feeling of "I suddenly feel less wandering" from the previous sentence. When Zhang Yan writes lyrics, he often refers to the sceneries of his hometown and the West Lake. The beauty of the West Lake is so beautiful that it is world-famous. However, in the author's eyes, due to the trampling of the Yuan soldiers, the grand scenery of the West Lake has become a thing of the past, with no trace of people and a bleak tourist experience. The author left a foreshadowing here. He did not say that the Yuan soldiers raided the south, but that the people were gone. Continuing the previous two sentences, the two sentences "Watching Spring from a Guest" seem to be about regretting missing out on spring and not being able to enjoy the great spring scenery once a year. In fact, as the saying goes, "Spring is seen when a guest is here", a guest living in a different place, wandering around the world, is like a tree without roots all year round, so he only sees the scenery "cursively" and is "divided by poetry and sorrow". How can he be full of joy when traveling? The two sentences in the next film, "Last Year's Swallow", use the word "Swallow" to reveal a little more about what I wanted to say but couldn't bear to say more. Only by connecting the front and back can we have a deeper understanding of the poet's situation. As previously known about Zhang Yan's life story, his country was ruined and his family was destroyed, but he was often forced by politics to go north to the capital, or was forced by life to live without a home or a permanent address, wandering around the world like a flying swallow. "Last year the swallows were at the end of the world, this year whose home is the swallow?" In just two sentences, the author expresses his indescribable painful emotions, his emotions are intense and his feelings are deep. The last two sentences are "Stop listening to the night rain in March. Now it is not to encourage flowers." The "night rain" refers to the night rain that "spring is gone when the flowers fall when the water falls" ("Lang Tao Sha" by Li Houzhu of the Southern Tang Dynasty), not the early spring drizzle. But the heavy rain in late spring. "To urge flowers" is not to urge flowers to bloom but to destroy flowers and plants by "destroying flowers and breaking leaves". The rain at this time is not a mediator to encourage flowers, but a torrential rain that kills spring flowers. A pun on "rain" reveals the pain of family and country. The most prominent thing about this word is contrast and contrast. The strong contrast between the right and wrong of things and people permeates it. The "swallow" is used as a metaphor for wandering and helpless, and the "night rain" is used as a metaphor for the cruel Yuan soldiers who destroy flowers and green. In writing, from scenery to people, from people to objects, from objects to emotions, we go deep and renovated layer by layer. Someone commented: "The embrace of Ji Bo is supported by the swallows; the sadness of the Yi Dynasty is supported by the rain at night. It is difficult for people to express it in simple words."
