Lu You's poem about calamus is as follows:
The Yanshan calamus and Kunshan stone are held by Chen Sou to comfort the silence.
The roots are wrinkled and the bones are thin, and the punch is sudden and straight.
The clear spring and blue fou play a role, and the eminent monks and wild people move their colors.
The sun is shining brightly in Penshan Mountain, and all traces of this thing are gone.
The roots look better and the leaves look luxuriant.
As I complain, I am also full of wind and frost, and nourishing my qi is ineffective and I am dying day by day.
Lu You (November 13, 1125 AD - January 26, 1210 AD), with the courtesy name Wu Guan and the nickname Fang Weng, was born in Shanyin, Yuezhou (now Shaoxing), and was the grandson of Lu Dian, the minister Youcheng. Writer, historian and patriotic poet of the Southern Song Dynasty.
After Emperor Xiaozong of the Song Dynasty came to the throne, he granted Lu You a Jinshi background. He was rejected by the Zhuhe faction because of his persistence in resisting the Jin Dynasty. After Song Guangzong succeeded to the throne, he was promoted to be a doctor in the Ministry of Rites and a reviewer of the Record Academy. Soon after, he was dismissed from office and returned to his hometown for "mocking and chanting the wind and moon". In the second year of Jiatai's reign, he went to Beijing to preside over the compilation of Xiaozong's and Guangzong's "Records of the Two Dynasties" and "History of the Three Dynasties". He was appointed to Baozhang Pavilion to be compiled. He died in the second year of Jiading (1210) and left his last work "Shi'er".
Lu You's main achievements:
Lu You has many literary talents, especially poetry. He said that he had "ten thousand poems in sixty years", and 9,300 of them have survived. The remaining poems can be roughly divided into three periods: before entering Shu at the age of 46, he preferred written forms; from entering Shu to resigning from office and returning to the East at the age of 64, this was the mature period of his poetry creation and a period of great change in poetry style.
From his early years specializing in "algae painting" to pursuing a grand and unrestrained style, full of fighting spirit and patriotic passion; in his later years, after living in seclusion in his hometown of Shanyin, his poetic style tended to be simple and down-to-earth, showing a It has a clear and distant pastoral flavor, and sometimes reveals the desolate feeling of life.
