Liang Yuanyin
Tang Dynasty: Li Bai
I floated on the Yellow River to Jingque, and hung up my seat to enter Bolian Mountain.
The sky is long and the water is wide, and we are tired of traveling far away. Visiting the ancient times and the platform.
The platform was worried about the guests, so he sang Liang Yuange to the wine.
But I recall Pengchi Ruan Gong's chant, because he chanted "The Lu River raises the flood waves".
The old country is lost in the mighty waves, and the journey back to the far west is safe!
When life reaches its peak, there is no time to worry, and you can drink fine wine and climb high buildings.
The flat-headed slave shakes the big fan, and May is not hot but Qingqiu is doubtful.
The jade plate with Yangmei is set up for you, and the Wu salt is like flowers and white snow.
Hold the wine with salt but drink it. Don't imitate the noble conduct of barbarians.
In the past, the noble Lord Xinling was a noble man, but now people cultivate Xinling graves.
The deserted city is illuminated by the blue mountain moon, and the ancient trees disappear into the blue clouds.
Where is the Liang Palace now? The horses return first and don't treat each other.
Dancing shadows and singing voices spread across the green pond, and the remaining Bian water flows eastward to the sea.
My clothes were filled with tears as I pondered this matter, and I was drunk with gold and could not return.
Continuously call five whites and play six bets, divide Cao into bets, and have a good time with wine.
Songs and ballads carry far-reaching meanings.
When I was lying down high in the east mountain, I got up, and it was not too late to help the common people.
Translation
I left the capital and took a boat down the Yellow River. The sails were set on the boat, and the waves in the river were turbulent, like undulating mountains.
After a long voyage, vast water, and hardships from a long journey, we finally arrived at the platform of Songzhou, which is the relic of Guliang Garden.
Even though I was a guest on the platform, I still kept worrying. I sang over the wine and impromptuly sang "Liang Yuan Song".
I also feel the poem "Wandering on the Pengchi" written by Ruan Ji in "Yong Huai", and think of the sentence "The water spreads and the waves rise".
I deeply feel that Chang'an and Liangyuan are separated by mountains and rivers, and the road is long, and there is little hope of returning to Xijing.
Everyone has his own destiny, and it is hard to violate destiny. You must be open-minded and don't have to worry. You can climb a high building and enjoy the scenery while drinking fine wine, and then let the singer sing my ditty.
Beside me, there is a crewmember with a flat head waving a fan. The hot May is as cool as the clear autumn in October.
The maid brings you a jade plate full of bayberry, and then brings you Wu salt with flowers as bright as snow.
Dip in white salt and drink fine wine, and you must have fun even if you are not happy in life. Don’t imitate the noble conduct of the Yi Qi of the Zhou Dynasty, who did not eat Zhou millet. I used the emperor’s gold to buy wine to drink.
There used to be a dashing and heroic master named Lord Xinling nearby, but now his graveyard is being cultivated, which shows that the power is in vain.
Look at the Liang Garden now. The moonlight is not shining, the courtyard walls are in decay, the green hills are twilight, and there are only towering ancient trees and floating clouds.
The luxurious Liangyuan Palace at that time no longer exists. Where did the elegant Meicheng and Sima Xiangru go?
Where have the dancing shadows and singing gone? The green water in the pool is evenly distributed, leaving only Bianshui flowing eastward day and night to the sea and never returning.
When I chanted this, I couldn't help but shed tears on my clothes. I couldn't return to Chang'an, so I had to buy myself drunk with gold.
Or call white and call black, throw a lot of gold; wear Fencao and gamble on wine to pass the time.
I sing and ballad, and consider myself a hermit for the time being, but I still place my hope in the future.
Just like when Xie An was lying high on Dongshan Mountain, once the time comes, it is not too late to get up and help the people again!

Appreciation
From entering Chang'an to leaving Chang'an, Li Bai's hope turned to disappointment. It is conceivable that this caused waves in the heart of a romantic poet with strong emotions. The success of this poem is to express the exciting and complex emotions generated during this turning point in a real and vivid way. The readers seem to be transported into the Tianbao era and listen to the poet's words with their own ears.
The first paragraph from the beginning to the sentence "The road is far away" expresses the author's depression and sadness after leaving Chang'an. Leaving Chang'an means the setback of political ideals, which cannot help but make Li Bai feel extremely depressed and confused. The poet does not describe the mood of depression directly, but blends it with the scenery, cleverly combining it with the description of the scenery on the way, and naturally reveals it. What a disgusting and difficult journey, but this is also the bumpy life journey under the author's feet. "The sky is long and the water is too wide to wade far." The long river stretches straight to the boundless horizon. What a long way forward, but the poet's hope. And the pursuit is just as far away and uncertain as the road ahead. Here, the emotion is the scene, the scene is the emotion, the scenes are intertwined, the emotions conveyed are subtle but strong, and the readers can almost feel the feeling of frustration and boredom. I can feel the poet's heavy and tired steps. This kind of writing not only makes the beginning of the straightforward narrative not appear dull, but also creates a rich atmosphere that envelopes the whole poem and sets the tone. It can be said to be powerful.
Then the poems folded down. The poet visited the ancient times to relieve his sorrow, and the visit to the ancient times increased his worries; he wrote songs to express his depression, but Ruan Ji's lament came to mind: "Wandering on the Pengchi, still looking at the beams. The Lu River is full of waves, and the wilderness is vast. ... Traveling without a partner, I look down and feel sad. "("Poetry of Ode to Love") People today and ancients looked at each other first, and their encounters were so similar! This touched the poet's mind even more, and he couldn't help but turn from the flood of Pengchi in Ruan's poem to the mighty Yellow River, and from the mighty Yellow River to confusion. Visible old country of Chang'an "The road is far to the west to return to Anke!" "A sigh contains infinite regret for the disillusionment of ideals, and reveals the source of worries and entanglements. In just six lines of poetry, the emotions loop back and forth, and they are tangled up in hundreds of knots, showing deep sorrow and paving the way for what follows.
From the "life" sentence to the "fencao" sentence, the second paragraph is from the emotional point of view, the poet is more passionate, and the depression turns to wildness. From the perspective of the poem's path, it is changed from the arrangement. Writing from the perspective of relieving worries, the poet has changed from being humble and suppressed to being bold and bold, with a new realm. The poet regards himself as a person who "lives up to his destiny" and adopts a contemptuous attitude toward unreasonable life experiences. In a high-rise building, you can drink fine wine, let go of your sorrows, and look up to everything. The slaves are shaking their fans, and the summer heat is like autumn. The environment is pleasant; there are fresh plums on the jade plate, and the Wu salt is like snow. You can enjoy the delicious food, but you don't have to be like Boyi. Shu Qi was so hard-working and obsessed with "nobility" that Yi Qi used Wei as food instead of Zhou millet and had high ambitions. The word "Mo Xue" here shows the poet's extreme disillusionment. In a sad and angry mood, he painfully denied his past pursuits, which kicked off the volcanic eruption of anger that followed.
"The Ancient One" entered into a fierce emotional conflict. The subjective source of Li Bai's pain comes from his persistent pursuit of merit. The poetry here is like a turbulent wave rushing towards the idea of ??merit. The poet expresses his feelings with his eyes, and takes a look at the historical events of Liang Garden. The tomb of Prince Wuji of the Wei Kingdom is no longer preserved; the palace of the famous king Liang Xiao has become a thing of the past; the former guests Meicheng and Sima Xiangru have also passed away long ago and have disappeared. When the smoke disappears, there is no need to worry about achievements! The two lines of "Desolate City" are very good at creating a scene. The cold moon, deserted city, and high clouds and ancient trees form a desolate and lonely tone, which is a good foil for the desolation of the ruins. The sentence compares the relatively eternal things of Pengchi and Bianshui with the things that are easy to fade away in the world, such as dancing, shadows and singing, which makes the world full of erratic meaning. If it is just drinking happily at the beginning, then, as the emotions become more intense. At this point, it’s almost like drinking and going crazy. Calling five and six, gambling and drinking, the three words "Hong Chihui" are written in a few strokes, and they seem to be racing at the same time. The state of binge drinking comes to life.
Denying the positive things in life inevitably leads to negativity and depression. , Wildness and denial are both *, not original intention. Therefore, the more wildness is written, the deeper the pain is revealed; the more negative it is, the more sincere love is revealed. The words "xian", "nv" and "jiu" are specially borrowed from the Yuefu body. Readers may recognize it as the real person, but not the superficial appearance. " (Volume 2 of "Art Concepts") Because of this, the poet's emotional melody did not end here, but continued to spin and rise, leading to the last four sentences: One day, like Xie An, who is lying high on the east mountain, he will be Please go out and realize your ambition to save the world. What a strong expectation, what a firm confidence! Li Bai's poems are often mixed with some negative elements, but generally they are not depressing, because he always has a fire burning in his heart and never gives up his pursuit. and confidence, which is very valuable.
This poem is good at expressing feelings vividly.
The poet uses various expression methods, from objective scenery to historical relics and even some life scenes, to outline it tactilely, making people feel a strong emotional torrent. The reader seems to witness with his own eyes the anguish, struggle and resistance of an upright soul, thereby feeling the ruthless destruction and oppression of society.
Pan Deyu, a Qing Dynasty man, said: "Long works are more valuable when they are layered with waves, especially when they are steeply changed; when they are expensive when they are steep, they are especially valuable when they are free." (Volume 2 of "Yang Yizhai Poetry Talk") This first song-style poem can be Said it was a model. It flows naturally with the poet's emotions, and the poetic realm keeps changing, just like a flying dragon flying in the clouds and mist, elusive. From depression and worry to drunkenness, and from drunkenness to confident expectations. The waves are ups and downs, turning steeply and unexpectedly, getting higher and higher, just like climbing Mount Tai, passing through eighteen sets, leaping out of the Nantianmen, stepping onto the top of the mountain, and singing loudly into the clouds.
