Su Shi's Nightwalk Poems

1. Su Shi's ancient poems in Chengtian Temple at night.

Genpox, on the night of October 12, 2006, took off his clothes and went to bed. He just saw the moonlight on the door and got up happily for a walk. Thinking that there was no one to play with, I went to the Tianhou Palace to find Zhang Huaimin. People didn't sleep, so we walked in the yard together. The courtyard is as empty as water, and the algae and grass in the water are intertwined and covered with bamboo and cypress. What night is there no moonlight? Where is there no bamboo and cypress? It's just the lack of free people like us.

Night Tour in Chengtian Temple is an essay written by Su Shi, a famous writer in the Northern Song Dynasty. Selected from the first volume of Dongpo Zhi Lin, written in the sixth year of Yuanfeng in Song Shenzong (1083). At that time, the author was demoted to Huangzhou because of Wutai poetry case. A beautiful description of the moonlit scenery is given, which truly records a fragment of the author's life at that time.

This paper expresses Su Shi's depression, self-explanation, masturbation and self-doubt, and at the same time shows Su Shi's optimistic attitude towards life.

Su Shi

Genpox, on the night of October 12, 2006, took off his clothes and went to bed. He just saw the moonlight on the door and got up happily for a walk. Those who have nothing to do go to Chengtian Temple, look for Zhang Huaimin, stay awake with people and stroll in the atrium.

In the moonlight, the courtyard is full of clear water, as clear as clear water. The algae and shepherd's purse in the water are the shadows of bamboo and cypress.

Where there is no moon at night, there are no pines and cypresses, but there are few idle people like me.

On the evening of1October 12, 2006, Yuanfeng. When I undressed and wanted to sleep, the moonlight shone through the window, and I got up and walked happily. Thinking that no one was playing, I went to Chengtian Temple to find Zhang Huaimin. Zhang Huaimin didn't sleep either. We walked in the yard.

The moonlight in the yard is as clear and transparent as a pool of clear water, and the algae and weeds in the water are criss-crossed, all of which are the shadows of bamboo and cypress.

Where there is no moonlight, where there are no bamboos and cypresses, there are no idle people like me.
