"Will Enter the Wine"
Dynasty: Tang Dynasty
Author: Li Bai
If you don't see it, the water of the Yellow River is coming up from the sky and running fast. Once you reach the sea, you will never return.
Don’t you see, the bright mirror in the high hall has sad white hair, and it looks like blue silk in the morning and turns to snow in the evening.
If you are proud of life, you must have all the fun, and don’t let the golden bottle stand empty against the moon.
I am born with talents that will be useful, and I will come back after all my money has been spent.
If you enjoy cooking sheep and slaughtering cattle, you will have to drink three hundred cups at a time.
Master Cen, Dan Qiusheng, is about to drink wine, but don’t stop drinking.
A song with you, please listen to me.
Bells, drums, food and jade are not expensive, but I hope I will never wake up after being drunk for a long time.
Since ancient times, all the sages and sages were lonely, but only the drinkers left their names.
In the old days, King Chen had a banquet and had a lot of fun and banquets.
What does the master mean when he has less money? It is up to you to sell it.
The five-flowered horse and the golden fur will be exchanged for fine wine, and we will sell the eternal sorrow with you.
Appreciation
This poem vividly expresses Li Bai’s unruly character: on the one hand, he is full of confidence in himself and aloof and arrogant; on the other hand, after the twists and turns in his political future, he Showing a sense of indulgence and enjoyment. In this poem, he interprets Zhuangzi's philosophy of enjoying life and expresses his contempt for wealth and sages. While drinking and having fun, there is actually a deep feeling of unappreciated talent. The whole poem is heroic, unrestrained in emotion, fluent in language, and highly contagious. Li Bai used the topic to express his anger by drinking to drown his sorrows.
Time passes, like a river flowing into the sea and never returning; life is short, looking at the blue hair and white snow in the morning and dusk; the insignificance of life seems to be an irreparable tragedy, and the only thing that can relieve worries is golden bottles of wine. This is Li Bai's style of sadness: sad but strong, sad but not sad, extremely angry but extremely bold. On the outside, he laments how easy it is to grow old in life, but on the inside, he laments the lack of talent. The poem begins with two sets of long parallel sentences, as if the wind and sea rain are rushing towards the reader, with a heroic momentum. "Don't you see, the water of the Yellow River comes up from the sky and rushes to the sea and never returns?" Li Bai was in Yingyang Mountain at this time, not far from the Yellow River. He climbed up and looked at it, so he borrowed the Yellow River to cheer up. The Yellow River has a long origin and a huge drop. It is like falling from the sky, flowing thousands of miles, and heading east to the sea. The magnificence of the scene is not visible to the naked eye, so this scene is Li Bai's fantasy, "obtained by his own way", and his words are exaggerated. The first sentence says that the coming of the great river is irresistible; the second sentence writes that the great river is coming and is irresistible. It rises and falls, creating a reciprocating chanting flavor that cannot be found in short single sentences (such as "The Yellow River falls to the sky and walks to the East China Sea").
Immediately afterwards, don’t you see that the mirror in the high hall has sad white hair, and the morning is like blue silk and the evening is snow? The first two sentences are an exaggeration of the spatial category, and these two sentences are an exaggeration of the time category. Lamenting the shortness of life; instead of directly saying that he laments that life is short and people will grow old in a short time, he said: "The mirror in the high hall is sad and the hair is gray", showing a helpless attitude of looking at oneself in the mirror and stroking the temples. The whole process of life from youth to aging is described as a matter of "morning" and "twilight", and the originally short-lived things are said to be more short-lived. This is the opposite of the first two sentences, which describe the originally magnificent things as more magnificent. exaggeration. Therefore, the long parallel sentences at the beginning of the chapter not only have a metaphorical meaning, but also have a contrasting effect. The great and eternal nature of the Yellow River represents the insignificance and fragility of life. This beginning can be described as extremely sad, but not delicate. It can be said to be a giant-like sentimentality, with thrilling artistic power. It is also caused by the sense of momentum at the beginning of the long sentence parallelism. This opening method is commonly used by authors, as follows: "Those who abandon me will not be able to keep yesterday's day; those who mess up my heart will be troubled today" ("Xuancheng Xie Tiao Lou Farewell School Secretary Shu Yun"), Shen Deqian said : This kind of style comes from Taibai's heart, which shows that it is quite creative. The two words in this poem are the cry of "Don't you see me" (generally Yuefu poems are only occasionally used at the beginning or end of the chapter), which greatly enhances the emotional color of the poem. There is a so-called opening and closing in poetry, and this can be said to be a great opening.
?The heaven and earth are the reverse journey of all things; the time is the passer-by of hundreds of generations? ("Spring Night Banquet from Di Peach and Plum Garden Preface") Although sadness is unavoidable, pessimism is not part of Li Bai's nature Nearby. In his opinion, as long as you are satisfied with your life, you will have no regrets and just enjoy yourself.
The fifth and sixth sentences are a reversal, from "sad" to "happy". From then on until the cup stopped, the poetry became more and more wild. ?How can you live a life full of worries and drink fine wine to climb high buildings? ("Liang Yuan Yin"), having fun is indispensable without wine, which brings us to the topic. However, the sentence does not directly describe the contents of the cup, but uses the image language of "golden bottle" and "opposite moon" to highlight the metaphor, which makes drinking more poetic; it does not directly state that it should be drinking and carousing, but uses "Don't use". The double negative sentence pattern of , ?empty? replaces the direct statement, and the tone is more emphatic. "To be happy in life, you must have all the fun", this seems to promote the idea of ????carpe diem, but it is just a phenomenon. The poet was depressed and frustrated at this time. ?Phoenix first issued the purple mud edict to pay homage to the emperor and attend the imperial banquet? ("Yin of the Jade Pot"). It seemed that he was proud when he went to Beijing following the edict and the emperor gave him a banquet. However, it was just an illusion.
Then again, "Playing the sword, composing songs and playing bitter sounds, dragging the train is not suitable for the king's family" ("Traveling is Difficult? Part 2"). In ancient times, Feng Chen was a guest in the house of Lord Mengchang. He felt that Lord Mengchang was not polite enough to him, so at first he often played the sword and Song means to go back. Li Bai hoped to make peace with the princes, but in Chang'an, the dignitaries did not take him seriously. Li Bai used Feng Xuan's allusion to describe his situation. At this time, there seemed to be no pride, but disappointment and indignation.
But it doesn’t stop there. The poet then affirmed life and himself in an optimistic and strong tone: "I am born with talents that will be useful." This is an amazing sentence. "Useful" but "necessary", very confident, almost like a declaration of human value, and I must capitalize this person. Here, from the seemingly negative phenomenon, a positive essence hidden deep in it is revealed, which is a kind of unrecognized talent and a desire to join the world. It is true that there will be times when there are long winds and waves, and the day to realize one's own ideals will always come. We should drink and sing for such a future, and spending money is nothing. ?Thousands of gold have been spent and come back!? This is another amazing sentence with high confidence. It can drive money without being controlled by money, which is really enough to make all ordinary people speechless. The poem is like the person he is, who wants to be a poet? In the past, he traveled to Weiyang for less than a year (less than a year) and scattered more than 300,000 yuan in gold ("History of Pei Chang of Shang'an Prefecture"). What a heroic feat it was. Therefore, the heroic sentiments deeply embedded in this sentence are by no means a mere pretense.
Equivalent to this style, the author describes a grand feast. It is by no means one dish or two dishes of food, one pot or two pots of wine, but the whole meal. The locals cook sheep and slaughter cattle, and they will never give up until they drink three hundred cups. The joyful atmosphere displayed during the banquet and the poems are magnificent.
At this point, the wild feeling reaches its climax and the melody of the poem accelerates. The poet's dazzling drunken state is vividly displayed on the page, and it suddenly makes people feel like they heard him shouting to persuade him to drink: "Master Cen, Dan Qiusheng, is about to drink, don't stop drinking!" A few short sentences are suddenly added, which not only makes the rhythm of the poem rich Changes, and write to force Xiao Xi to speak out. Not only did he meet his best friend in life, but he also met his rival in wine. Not only did he forget about you, but the poet even forgot that he was writing poetry. The poems he wrote seemed to be restored to life. He also wanted to sing a song with you, asking you to pour your heart out for me. Hear?. The following eight lines are the song of the poem. This idea is strange and strange, and it is purely a stroke of genius.
Awake?. At this point in the poem, it is clear that the mood has turned from wild to angry. This is not only drunken spouting arrogance, but also drunken spouting the truth. Because I am born with useful talents, I should be able to reach the position of Prime Minister and achieve great success. However, the road is like the blue sky, and I alone cannot reach it ("The Road Is Difficult"). To say that wealth is not noble enough is out of indignation. The following two sentences: "All the sages in ancient times were lonely" are also angry words. Li Bai once exclaimed, "Who is responsible for Guan Ge?" and said that he had the talents of Guan Zhong, but no one believed in Zhuge Liang's wisdom. Therefore, he said that the ancients were "lonely" and at the same time showed that he was "lonely." That's why I'm willing to live in a dream and die in a drunken state. Here, the poet has poured himself into the ancient wine cup.
When it comes to "Only the drinker leaves his name", he cited "Chen Wang" and "Cao Zhi" as the representative. And use the sentence from his "Famous Capital Chapter": "When you return, you have a feast, and you fight with ten thousand wines." Since ancient times, wine drinkers have experienced many experiences, but "Wang Chen" was favored. This is inseparable from Li Bai's always pretentiousness. The people he set as role models in his mind were high-ranking figures such as Xie An, and among such figures, "Wang Chen" was more closely related to wine. many. It is written with style and is consistent with the extremely confident tone of the previous article. Cao Zhi, the poet of the Three Kingdoms, described the banquet in Luoyang in "Famous Capitals": "When you return, you have a feast of peace and joy, and a fight of ten thousand fine wines." ?Cao Zhi is known as the Eight Dou of Talent (Xie Lingyun, a writer of the Dynasty and Song Dynasty:? There is only one stone in the world, and Cao Zijian has eight Dou alone. I have one Dou, and all the people in the world have one Dou.?), despite possessing sharp weapons and extraordinary ambitions , but suffered a political blow from his brother Wei Wendi Cao Pi, and became depressed. The King of Chen, Cao Zhi, was highly jealous during the Pi and Rui dynasties, and it was difficult to develop his ambitions, which also aroused the poet's sympathy. One mentioned "ancient sages", the other mentioned "Chen Wang" Cao Zhi, full of injustice. At first, this poem seems to only involve emotions about life, without any political overtones. In fact, the whole poem is full of profound sorrow and anger and belief in oneself. The reason why poetry is sad but not sad, and sad but strong, is rooted in this.
Having just revealed a little bit of his deep feelings, he returned to talking about wine, which made him even more excited. The following poems are wild again, and getting more and more wild. Why does the master say "less money"? He not only responds to the sentence "All the gold is gone", but also pretends to be ups and downs, leading to the last heroic words: Even if all the gold is gone, he should not hesitate to use the famous five-flowered horse? (the color of the coat is five-patterned) Good horses) and golden furs are exchanged for fine wine, hoping to get drunk and then rest. The beauty of this ending is not only that the tone of "Hu'er", "Yu Er" is very loud; it also has a kind of arbitrary mood that the author may not be aware of at the moment. It should be noted that the poet is just a guest invited by his friends to drink. At this moment, he is sitting on a high table, pointing angrily, proposing to pawn a fur for a horse, which makes people wonder who the "master" is. Very romantic. A quick word can only come from a bold and informal way of making decisions. The poetry is so wild and wild that it makes people sigh and sing, and they want to dance with their hands and dance with their feet. The emotion is still lingering and the poem has come to an end. Suddenly another sentence bursts out: "I will sell the eternal sorrow with you", which is closely related to the "sadness" of the opening chapter, and the meaning of "eternal sorrow" is even deeper. The ending of "The white clouds disappear from the sky and disappear with the wind" shows the poet's torrent of emotions.
Looking at the whole article, there are really ups and downs, and it would be impossible to do it without a huge pen.
"Jiangjinjiu" is not long in length, but the five tones are complex and the atmosphere is extraordinary. The writing is full of ink, the emotions are extremely sad and angry and the writing is wild, and the language is extremely bold and calm. The poem has the momentum and power to shock ancient and modern times. This is indeed related to the exaggeration technique. For example, the poem often uses huge numbers (? Thousand gold pieces?, "Three hundred cups of wine?", "Ten thousand cups of wine", "Thousand gold fur coats", "Eternal sorrow"). ?etc.) expresses heroic poetic sentiment without giving people a sense of empty exaggeration. The root of this lies in its rich and deep inner feelings, the turbulent emotions of anger hidden under the drinking conversation. In addition, the whole article has great ups and downs, and the poetic mood changes suddenly and suddenly, from sadness to joy, to wildness, to anger, then to wildness, and finally ends in "Eternal Sorrow". In response to the beginning of the chapter, it is like a rushing river, with momentum and excitement. It twists and turns, twists and turns vertically and horizontally, and can carry the cauldron with its strength. His songs include the song-writing method, as well as the uncanny craftsmanship and the beauty of "eliminating the lines of brush and ink". It is neither a state that can be learned through deliberate depiction and carving, nor a state that can be achieved hastily. The whole article is mainly composed of seven words, and is broken up by thirty or fifty words, which are extremely inconsistent and intricate. The poems are mainly composed of prose, and are also touched by short antitheses (such as Mr. Cen, Dan Qiu Sheng). ,? Five-flowered horse, thousand gold fur?), the rhythm is fast and changing, unrestrained but not easy.
