The mother used the needle and thread in her hand to make clothes for her long-distance son.
Before leaving, I had a stitch for fear that my son would come back late and his clothes would be damaged.
Who can say that a filial child like the weak can repay his mother's love like the sunshine in spring?
Second, translation.
A loving mother makes clothes for her long-distance son with a needle and thread in her hand. Before leaving, he sewed a needle tightly for fear that his son would come back late and his clothes would be damaged. Who can say that a child's filial piety as weak as grass can repay the kindness of such a loving mother as Chunhui Puze?
Third, the author
The writer is Meng Jiao, a poet in Tang Dynasty. Meng Jiao was born in Wu Kang, Huzhou. His father, Meng Tingyun, is a small official who works as a county marshal in Kunshan. Born in a poor family, Meng Jiao was withdrawn from childhood and rarely interacted with others. Meng Jiao's poetry transcends the narrow scope of subject matter in Dali and Zhenyuan periods.
The main theme of his poems is the resentment of the middle and lower literati against poverty and hardship, which is determined by his repeated trials and tribulations, hard career and childless middle age. But he can still see some broader social life through his personal destiny and reflect these lives with poetry.
Extended data:
This is an ode to maternal love. This poem eulogizes the great beauty of human nature-maternal love. In the first two sentences of the poem, the person written is mother and son, and the thing written is thread and clothes, but it points out the love of flesh and blood between mother and son.
The two sentences in the middle focus on the actions and attitudes of loving the mother, showing the mother's deep affection for her son. Although there are no words and no tears, it is full of pure love, which is exciting and makes people cry. The last two sentences are the sublimation of the first four sentences. Using the metaphor of popular images, I believe in the passion of naked women. How can we repay children like maternal love in spring grass?
With fresh, smooth, plain and plain language, the whole poem is full of rich and mellow poetry, which has touched the heartstrings of many readers for thousands of years and caused thousands of wanderers to sing.
