[Edit this paragraph] Translation of ancient poems
I only love the weeds growing by the river, so quiet and interesting; Deep in the shade, orioles make attractive calls.

[Edit this paragraph] Poetry appreciation
This is a famous landscape poem and one of Wei's representative works. Describe the poet's spring trip to Xixi Chuzhou to enjoy the scenery, and take a wild trip in the rain at low tide. The first two sentences are spring scenery, love the quiet grass, despise the oriole, which is a metaphor for celebration and avoid flattery; The last two sentences describe the urgency of spring tide with rain and the scene of water rushing over the boat, which contains a kind of helpless sadness that is not in place and cannot be used. The whole poem reveals a calm mind and sad feelings. This is a famous landscape poem and the most famous masterpiece of Wei. Although the poem is about ordinary scenery, it has become a legal animation with deep artistic conception after being touched by the poet.
This article was written by Wei when he was the secretariat of Chuzhou in the second year of Jian Zhong (78 1). The author visited Chuzhou on the Xijiang River and wrote this poem (Xijiang River is in the western suburbs of Chuzhou).
The first two sentences of the poem, "I feel sorry for the static grass growing by the stream, and there are orioles singing in the depths of the trees", mean that the poet loves the static grass growing by the stream, and there are orioles singing in the depths of the shade. This is an elegant scenery where beautiful colors and beautiful music are intertwined. "Solitude and pity" means eccentricity, which shows the poet's quiet mind. The last two sentences, "spring tide comes late with rain, and no one crosses the river in the wild", mean that it rains in the evening and the tide rises more violently. There are no pedestrians on the ferry in the country, and a ferry is moored across the river. This picture of crossing a boat in the rain contains the poet's sadness about his inaction, which makes people think deeply. This also clearly shows that Wei would rather sit on the deserted grass than be a big official.
Wei was once a "Sanweilang" and a secretariat of Chuzhou, Jiangzhou and Suzhou. He was deeply worried about the political corruption in the mid-Tang Dynasty, and was also concerned about the sufferings of people's livelihood, but he could do nothing. This poem expresses his feelings euphemistically.
[Appreciation] This poem was written in the second year of the poet's tenure as the secretariat of Chuzhou (78 1). In the Tang Dynasty, Chuzhou was ruled by the city of Chuzhou, Anhui Province, and Xijian was in the western suburbs of Chuzhou. This poem describes the quiet scene by the water of a mountain stream.
In the first two sentences of the poem, the poet said that in the prosperous scenery of spring, he only cared about the solitary grass by the river, while the beautiful song of oriole came from the lush Woods, but the poet seemed to care nothing about it. The last two sentences are about what I saw in the wild crossing in the late rain. Late tides and spring rains make the water more urgent. The suburban ferry is more deserted at the moment. Maybe the boatman has gone home to rest, only to see the empty ferry drifting freely.
Whether this poem has a sustenance or not, and what is the implication, has been debated endlessly. Some people think that it is the thorn of "the gentleman is next, the villain is above"; Some people think that "there is no need to entrust the scenery of Xixi to this couple." In fact, the emotions revealed in the poem are looming. At the beginning, when you mentioned Youcao and Orioles side by side, the poet used the word "lonely pity", which clearly showed the poet's state of mind when he was poor and sober, and he did not flatter him very much. The last two sentences contain a kind of helplessness and sadness that is not in place and not used. Poets write scenes with emotion, express their feelings by borrowing scenes, write their favorite and disliked scenes, and talk about their comfortable and uncomfortable situations, while inner peace and emotional sadness naturally show up. Express the author's love for life.
In the first two sentences of the poem, the quietness of the environment is written by "grass" and "deep tree", while the words "life" and "singing" reveal a sense of movement in silence. The last two sentences of the poem are about the scenery in the rain in the evening, and there is silence in the movement. Crossing the Wild without a Boat shows a desolate and silent artistic conception.
