Of course, drinking and writing poems together will be very happy, but at the thought that life is too short, maybe future generations will feel the same as themselves, and it will inevitably lead to feelings!
Original text of Preface to Lanting Collection:
Yonghe nine years, years old in guǐ ugly, early spring, will be in Huiji (kuài jī: and) Shan Ye Lanting, studying. A group of smart people never miss, but some of them are long and salty. There are mountains, lush forests and bamboos, as well as clear streams and fast-flowing water (tuān), which are reflected around. Thought that music (shāng) flows and water (qū) sits beside it. Although it is not as prosperous as the string of silk and bamboo, a song (Shang) is enough to say your feelings.
Today is a sunny day, sunny and sunny. Looking up at the size of the universe and overlooking the variety, what you see and hear is enough. I believe in coke.
Ladies, lifelong pitch. Or arm in arm and realize the words of a room; Or because of consignment, wandering outside (hái). Although fun (qǔ) is different from peace, when it is happy with what it has encountered, it will gain something from itself temporarily, and it will be self-sufficient (the same as "fast") without knowing that old age is coming.
What he is tired of is that his feelings move with the times, and his feelings are (X). I'm happy about it. It's a thing of the past between pitches, so I still have to be happy about it. The situation is short-lived, and it will end in the end. The ancients said, "Life and death are great." It hurts!
Every time we look at the reason why people in the past are excited, if they unite, they must worship the words, not hold them in their arms. Knowing that a dead life is a false birthday, Peng Qi's destruction (shāng) is a mistake. Looking back today is still looking back on the past, sad husband! So when people line up, they are recorded. Although the world is different, pregnancy is a good thing. Later visitors will also be impressed by Sven.
Translation:
In the ninth year of Yonghe, that is, the year of guichou, at the beginning of March, (celebrities) gathered in Lanting, Shanyin County, Huiji, and went to the water to eliminate disasters and seek happiness. Many prestigious and talented people came, young and old. There are tall mountains and steep mountains, dense forests and tall ones
Bamboo, the water is clear and fast, and it shines around (in the pavilion) to divert water into the ring channel (in the pavilion), so that the glass floats on the water (for people to drink). People sat in rows by the curved water. Although there is no grand occasion of orchestral music, it is enough to express their feelings buried in their hearts when drinking and composing poems.
On this day, it was sunny and breezy. Look up at the boundless sky, look down, there are so many things on the ground, so as to broaden your horizons and broaden your mind, and you can enjoy watching and listening beside it. It's really worth having fun!
People get along with each other and pitch all their lives. Some people like to talk about their interests and ambitions, and they like to talk face to face indoors (with friends). Some people pin their feelings on what they like and live indulgently without any constraints. Although hobbies vary widely, whether static or dynamic, when they are happy with what they encounter.
(or) temporarily get what you want, be happy and self-sufficient, and (unexpectedly) not feel the coming of aging; When you are tired of what you like or get, your mood will change with the status quo, and your feelings will arise spontaneously. What you used to feel very happy will suddenly become the past.
Still can't help but feel deeply about this, the length of (life) will eventually (will) come to an end with nature. The ancients said: "Life and death are also important!" How can you not be sad!
Whenever I see the reasons why my predecessors feel sorry, if I encounter the same thing (as I think), (I) never sigh and feel sad without facing their articles, and I can't express it in words in my mind. I know it is absurd to treat life and death equally, and it is wrong to treat long life and short life equally.
Sadly, future generations look at today in the way before today. So I relayed the people at that time and recorded their poems. Even though times have changed, people express their feelings in the same way. Later readers will also feel the poetry of this party.
Extended data:
On the third day of March in the ninth year of Yonghe in the Eastern Jin Dynasty (AD 353), 41 people, including Wang Xizhi, Xie An and Sun Chuo, were in Lanting (now Shaoxing, Zhejiang Province), each with his own poems and poems, and compiled Preface to Lanting Collection. Wang Xizhi wrote a preface for this purpose, which was called Preface to Lanting Collection. The preface narrates the beauty of the landscape around Lanting and the joy of gathering, and expresses the author's feelings of impermanence of life and death.
The Handed down Book of Fattie, with 28 lines and 324 words, is his masterpiece at the age of 50, with perfect composition, structure and brushwork. Later generations commented that "the font of the right army has changed. Its heroic spirit is natural, so it is considered to be a model from ancient times to the present. " Therefore, calligraphers of all ages regarded Preface to Lanting as "the best running script in the world".
"Dragon Book" is the most famous ink in the Tang Dynasty. It was named "Lanting Dragon Book" because it was printed with the name of Feng Chengsu during the reign of Emperor Taizong. This book is well written, and its brushwork, ink style, style and charm are all reflected. It is recognized as the best copy. Stone carving is the first to promote the "fixed object book"
According to Guo Moruo's textual research, the second half of the Preface to Lanting handed down from ancient times has nothing in common with Wang Xizhi's thoughts, and the calligraphy style is also different from the epitaph of the Eastern Jin Dynasty unearthed in recent years, which is suspected to be wrongly entrusted by Sui and Tang Dynasties. But some people disagree. Preface to Lanting shows the highest realm of Wang Xizhi's calligraphy art.
The author's bearing, phoenix spirit, mind and feelings are fully displayed in this work. The ancients said that Wang Xizhi's cursive script is like "the breeze comes out of the sleeve and the next month comes into my arms", which is a wonderful metaphor.
The world also often uses Cao Zhi's Ode to the Goddess of Luo: "If you are amazing, if you are graceful, if you are secluded, you will be brilliant, and Hua Mao is full of autumn flowers and spring flowers. It seems that if the moon is covered by light clouds, it will float like the wind flowing back to snow. " Praise the beauty of Wang Xizhi's calligraphy. Legend has it that Wang Xizhi practiced calligraphy hard when he was a child. After a long time, the pool water used to clean the brush turned black.
