The Cottage Blown by Autumn Wind is an ancient poem by Du Fu, a great poet in the Tang Dynasty, in the Cottage of Chengdu, Sichuan.
The autumn wind broke the hut.
Tang Dynasty: Du Fu
In August and autumn, the wind roared and rolled up my three hairs. Hair flew over the river and sprinkled on the periphery of the river. The highest one hangs a long forest tip, and the lower one floats to Shentang 'ao.
The children in Nancun bully me. I can stand being a thief.
I openly carried Mao into the bamboo forest, and my lips were so dry that I couldn't breathe. When I came back, I sighed on crutches. In an instant, the wind will set the color of the clouds and ink, and the autumn will be bleak and dark. This cloth has been as cold as iron for many years, and Joule has been lying down and cracking. There is no dry place in the bedside table, and the feet are numb with rain.
What's the point of getting wet all night? There are tens of millions of buildings in Ande, which greatly protect all the smiles of the poor in the world, and the wind and rain are as quiet as mountains. Oh! When I suddenly see this house in front of me, I will freeze to death alone!
Translation:
In August, it is already late autumn, and the wind is howling. The wind blew away several layers of thatch on my roof. The thatched grass flew across Huanhuaxi and scattered on the other side of the river. The high-flying thatch is wrapped around the high treetops, and the low-flying thatch floats and sinks into ponds and depressions.
A group of children in Nancun bullied me, so they had the heart to be "thieves" to grab things face to face and run into the bamboo forest with thatch in their arms. I'm thirsty and I can't stop drinking. When I came back, I sighed alone on crutches.
After a while, the wind stopped and the dark clouds in the sky were as black as ink. In late autumn, the sky becomes dark and foggy. This cloth has been covered for years, cold and hard, like an iron plate. The child's sleeping posture is not good and the quilt is torn.
When it rains, the roof leaks, and there is no dry place at home. The rain on the roof keeps leaking down like hemp thread. Since the Anshi Rebellion, I haven't slept much. The nights are long, the house leaks and the bed is wet. How can I stay up until dawn?
How can we get thousands of spacious and tall houses, generally shelter the poor people in the world and make them smile, while the houses are unmoved in the wind and rain, as stable as Mount Tai?
Alas! When will such a towering house appear in front of me? At that time, even if my hut is blown down by the autumn wind, I will willingly freeze to death myself!

Creative background:
This poem was written in August of the second year of Shang Yuan in Tang Suzong (AD 76 1). In the spring of 760 AD, Du Fu entrusted his relatives and friends to build a hut next to Huanhuaxi in Chengdu, and finally found a place to live.
Unexpectedly, in August of 76 1 year, a strong wind broke the house and heavy rain followed. At that time, the Anshi rebellion had not subsided, and the poet was deeply moved and wrote this well-known poem.
Appreciate:
"There are millions of luxury houses in Ande, and everyone in the world is happy, and the wind and rain are like a calm mountain." Use seven words before and after, nine words in the middle, and repeat every sentence.
Words such as "Guangsha", "Thousand Houses", "Great Shelter", "The World", "Happy Face" and "Anru Mountain" are also very loud, thus forming a powerful rhythm and momentum.
It is from the poet's painful life experience of "the bedside table is dry" and "how to get wet all night" that the unrestrained passion and eager hope of generate are displayed. Singing is not enough to express this feeling.
So the poet gave a heartfelt sigh: "Alas! Suddenly I saw this house in front of me, and I froze to death alone! " It expresses the author's feelings of worrying about the country and the people, and shows the author's noble character of pushing himself and others and sacrificing himself for others.
The poet's broad mind and lofty ideals have been vividly demonstrated so far. The feelings expressed by the author of this poem are basically the same as those expressed in Fan Zhongyan's "Yueyang Tower", that is, "worry about the world first, and enjoy the world afterwards".
It also expresses the author's thoughts and feelings of caring for the people's sufferings and the country and the people. This poem depicts the scene where the house leaks in the autumn night and it rains all night, and truly records a fragment of the life of the thatched cottage.
Finally, I was born in a strange place, pushed myself and others with my own personal experience, further put aside my hardships and dreamed up a vast mansion that sheltered the poor in the world. This unrealistic fantasy is based on the poet's idea of taking the country as the country and drowning in hunger.
The broad-minded performance makes the work exude a positive romantic atmosphere. The language of the whole poem is extremely concise, the image is prominent, the waves are superimposed, and there is no treatment, so it can be gripping.
The author introduces:
Du Fu (7 12-770), with beautiful words, is a great realistic poet in the Tang Dynasty, and is also called "Du Li" with Li Bai. Originally from Xiangyang, Hubei Province, he moved to Gongxian County, Henan Province.
In order to distinguish Li Shangyin, Du Mu and Xiao Du Li, Du Fu and Li Bai are also called Da Du Li, and Du Fu is often called Lao Du. ?
As a teenager, Du Fu traveled to wuyue and Zhao Qi successively, during which he also visited Luoyang. After thirty-five, I came first and last in Chang 'an. Later, he presented gifts to the emperor and presented them to the nobles.
The frustration of officialdom witnessed the extravagance and social crisis of the upper class in the Tang Dynasty. In the 14th year of Tianbao (755), the Anshi Rebellion broke out, Tongguan fell, and Du Fu moved to many places.
In the second year of Gan Yuan (759), Du Fu abandoned his official position and went to Sichuan. Although he fled the war and lived a relatively stable life, he still cared about the whole life and the affairs of the country. He created famous works such as Up the Mountain, Spring Hope, Northern Expedition, Three Officials and Three Farewells.
Although Du Fu is a realistic poet, he also has a wild and unruly side. It is not difficult to see Du Fu's heroism and dry clouds from his masterpiece Song of Drinking Eight Immortals.
The core of Du Fu's thought is the Confucian thought of benevolent government, and he has the great wish of "making the monarch Yao and Shun superior, and then making the customs pure". Although Du Fu was not famous during his lifetime, his fame spread far and wide, which had a far-reaching impact on China literature and Japanese literature.
About 65,438+0,500 poems of Du Fu have been preserved, most of which are collected by Du Gongbu. In the winter of the fifth year of Dali (770), Du Fu died at the age of 59.
Du Fu's influence on China's classical poetry is far-reaching, and he is called "the sage of poetry" by later generations, and his poems are called "the history of poetry". Later generations called him Du Shiyi and Du Gongbu, and also called him Du Shaoling and Du Caotang.
