Dear brothers, who knows Li Shangyin's explanation of "Giving White Lotus"

Give a lotus flower

Li shangyin

People in the world have different descriptions of flowers and leaves. They plant flowers in beautiful golden pots, but regardless of the flowers and leaves, they fall into the soil and become dust.

Only the lotus flower is matched with red flowers and green leaves. The lotus leaf has a roll of Shu, and the lotus flower has a bloom, which is so perfect and natural.

This flower and this leaf set each other off, and the green color reduced the red color, killing people!

Li Shangyin (about 813-about 858), a native of western Henan, was born in Hanoi, Huaizhou (now Qinyang County, Henan Province). Kai Cheng is a scholar, and once served as county magistrate, secretary lang and judge of Dongchuan Province. Due to the influence of the party struggle between Niu (monk and child) and Li (Deyu), he was constantly excluded, leading to lifelong poverty. Li Shangyin was an important poet in the late Tang Dynasty. His poems mainly express his sadness and frustration when he was hurt, but they also criticize the current politics and satirize the present with the ancient. He is good at using symbols, metaphors, hints, foil and other techniques to form a graceful and hazy style, and sometimes it becomes obscure.

Li Shangyin's poem "Give a Lotus" is about the lotus.

Lotus, also known as lotus, is a perennial aquatic herb. At first, the rhizome was as thin as a finger and was called "Liao" (lotus whip). There is a knot on the bladder, and the bladder regenerates on the knot. The nodes of lotus grow fibrous roots downward, the leaves are pumped upward and pedicels are born. Lotus flowers are in full bloom in summer, and the color is reddish or white. After the lotus withers, the receptacle expands to form a lotus, and many nuts (commonly known as "lotus seeds") grow in the lotus. At the end of the growth of lotus root in summer and autumn, the front end of lotus root whip is buried in the soil and expands into lotus root. The next spring, new plants sprouted. The Netherlands is native to India and is planted in shallow ponds in central and southern China. Lotus leaves have many uses, and flowers and leaves can be seen by people. Lotus root can be eaten or made into lotus root powder; Lotus seeds are tonics; Lotus seeds, lotus roots and lotus leaves can all be used as medicine.

There are some different views on "lotus" in the poem "Giving Lotus". Some people think that "Lotus" is the name of a friend of Li Shangyin's when she was young. She is a woman. She and Li Shangyin were childhood friends, but for various reasons, they couldn't get together. Li Shangyin wrote this poem for her. Others think that "Lotus" is the name of a dusty woman, whom Li Shangyin once met by chance. Two people talk about poetry and papers, which is very speculative. When she left, she gave each other poems, meaning that although she was in the dust, her quality was good. Anyway, "Give a Lotus" is a good poem.

[Flowers in the world have nothing to do with leaves, and flowers go into the golden basin for dust. ]

People in the world have different attitudes towards flowers and leaves. They planted flowers in golden pots and turned leaves into dust.

Karen: The same kind.

Only the green lotus and the fiery red lotus are as naive as opening and closing. ]

Only the lotus leaf and the red bud are matched with each other, and the unfolding of the lotus leaf and the opening and closing of the lotus flower depend entirely on nature.

Green lotus: green lotus leaf. Hanban: an unopened lotus flower. Roll Shu: Describe the posture of lotus leaf. Roll up, roll up. Shu, stretch yourself. Opening and closing: describe the posture of lotus flower. Open, open. Close the door, close the door. Innocence: natural nature.

[This flower sets each other off with this leaf, and the green color reduces the red sorrow and kills people! ]

Lotus leaves set each other off for a long time, lotus leaves decreased and lotus flowers withered. It's hard to be sad.

Cui: It refers to the lotus leaf. Red: refers to the lotus. Fear of murder: extreme sadness.

The first two sentences of this poem describe two different fates of flowers and leaves. Flowers and leaves in the world are born from the same root, with the same branch length, colorful, varied, unique and fragrant. Once recognized by a discerning person. The transplant basin is well taken care of. But the green leaves were abandoned and fell to the ground, turning to dust in the biting wind and rain. Flowers into the pot, leaves like dust, this is the fate of flowers and leaves in the world. These two sentences always describe the happiness of flowers and the misfortune of leaves, and their "incoherence" reflects the value of the unique quality of lotus.

The third to sixth sentences are the main part of this poem. In the spectrum of the square group, only the green charge and the red charge are different.

The word "only" is different from the same, and the following four sentences are derived from it, which are translated into the stretching and shrinking of lotus leaves, the opening and closing of lotus flowers, and all kinds of verve, natural and unadorned. The ancients used lotus flowers to describe many virtues of gentlemen, and borrowed the characteristics of lotus flowers to compare and praise the outstanding independent character of noble and refined, not flattering the world. But this poem praises the "naive" quality of the lotus leaf, in order to praise the virtue of sincerity but not hypocrisy. Ren Naizhen is not only about flowers, but also about people. Write human nature in a colorful and novel way.

The last two sentences go deep into the "innocence" of lotus. The red flowers and green leaves of the lotus flower reflect each other. Even in the decline of red, when the world is sad, we still don't dislike each other. If the first two sentences write lotus "Ren Naizhen", it is important to show * * * glory; Then, the "long contrast" between these two sentences is mainly manifested in the same decline. These four poems complement each other and inherit from each other, which completely shows the unswerving quality of Lotus from both positive and negative aspects.

Li Shangyin was frustrated all his life and only worked as a few small officials. The main reason is not that he has no talent, but that he has no confidant recommendation. He lives between Niu and Li, without trust and support, and is laughed at and excluded. This poem praises the rise and fall of the lotus, but actually expresses its desire for bosom friends and political support.

This poem is simple in language, obvious in meaning, straightforward in expression and lively in rhythm, which is different from the subtle gracefulness of many of Li Shangyin's poems and reflects the diversity of his poetic style.
