The beauty of "chaos" in Lotus Picking Song No. 2

The second part of "Two Lotus Picking Songs"? Wang Changling

The lotus leaf skirt is cut in one color, and the hibiscus opens to both sides of the face.

You can't see anyone entering the pool, but you can only feel someone coming when you hear the song.

The interpretation of "chaos" in the third sentence determines the theme of this song "Lotus Picking Song". The whole poem describes the beauty, innocence and shyness of the lotus picking girl, and expresses the author's joyful and leisurely mood. The reasons are as follows:

Start with the word "chaos". The word "chaos" in the poem means "confusion". This "panic" can not only understand the "panic" of the lotus-picking girl when she meets her sweetheart who sings and picks lotus flowers, but also the "panic" of the lotus-picking girl when she encounters a group of fishermen who sing love songs to tease her. This unfolds Imagine: A shy lotus-picking girl suddenly heard the song of her lover brother or a fisherman, and hurriedly swung the boat to the depths of the lotus pond. Her anxious and panic-stricken attitude happened to be observed by the pond. The author has a panoramic view. After the author gave a knowing smile, he looked at the graceful lotus in front of him and thought of the lotus-picking girl who fled in panic. Then he came up with one or two sentences of the poem, using the skirt to "assimilate" the beauty of the lotus leaf, and to The lotus "assimilates" the beauty of the lotus-picking girl. But the beauty lies in the second sentence. The shyness of the lotus picking girl is just like the red lotus! At this time, I remembered the famous line from Xu Zhimo's "Shayang Lana": "The most gentle thing is the gentleness of the lowered head, like the shyness of a water lotus that cannot bear the cool breeze." How could this feeling and scene not make the poet intoxicated?

The third and fourth sentences of the poem should be reversed. It was the lotus-picking girl who heard the song and became alert that someone was coming, so she drove into the depths of the lotus in a panic so that no one could see her. I think this interpretation is not only in line with the purpose of "Lotus Picking Song" which "mostly describes the scenery of the waters in the south of the Yangtze River, the working life scenes of lotus picking women, and their pursuit of pure love, etc.", it also cleverly solves the problem of Mr. Liu Xuekai's A contradiction that cannot be justified. More importantly, the poems are still full of interest, "leaving a leisurely and endless interest".

Wang Changling was the "Seven Masters" of the Tang Dynasty. He was especially good at handling the third sentence of the quatrain. He would not leave any flaws that could not be justified for future generations to criticize. Sometimes, when interpreting the poems of predecessors, we must first consider smoothness, rather than harming the original intention of the poem by pursuing this beauty or that beauty.
