The original text of Jia Jian in the pre-Qin period:
The Millennium is frost. The so-called Iraqis are on the water side. Tracing back and forth, the road is blocked and long. Swim back from it, in the middle of the water
It's been a long time, and it hasn't changed for thousands of years. The so-called Iraqis are in the water. Tracing back and forth from it, the road is blocked and broken. Swim back from the inside and swim in the water.
Jia Cai, peace and prosperity have not passed. The so-called Iraqis are in the water. Go back and follow, the road is blocked and turn right. Swim back from the inside and swim in the water.

Looking downstream, she (he) seems to be in the middle of the river. A large area of reeds is sad, and the dew in the morning has not dried. I miss my sweetheart. She (he) is across the river. Pursuing her (him) against the current is bumpy and difficult. Down the river, she (he) seems to be in a small continent in the water.
The reeds by the river are lush and continuous, and the dew in the morning has not evaporated. I miss my sweetheart. She (he) is on the river bank. Sailing against the current to pursue her (him), the road is tortuous and dangerous. Down the river, she (he) seems to be on the beach in the water.
Extended data writing background:
This poem is written for those who admire it in their hearts. Chen Zizhan's "Three Hundred Poems for Solving Problems" said: "There is no doubt that the poem" Sword House "is a work that the poet wants to see but can't see.
Who is this man? Is he an old man who understands Zhou rites, or an old minister of the Western Zhou Dynasty who cares for the Zhou Dynasty and the old master? A hermit of Qin State or a friend of the poet? Or is the poet himself a saint, a hermit and a first-class poet? Or do we simplify and vulgarize it and insist that it is a love poem, saying that the poet misses his lover? It is difficult to judge because there are different explanations. "
Appreciation of articles:
The emptiness of poetry brings trouble to interpretation, but it also expands the inclusive space of its connotation. When readers touch what is hidden behind the description object, they will feel that the images in this poem are not only used by poets to sing, but also contain some symbolic meanings. "On the Water Side" is a symbol of admiration, which is described in detail in Qian Zhongshu's "Pipe Tapes". "
Tracing back, swimming back, the road is blocked and long, and the middle of the water are just symbols of the difficulty and uncertainty of repeated pursuit. The poet searched up and down, but Iraqis were faintly visible but still out of reach. In The West Chamber, Yingying failed to combine with Zhang Sheng in Pujiu Temple because of her mother's constraints. She lamented that "people are far apart", and the poets in Jia Jian felt the same way.
It seems that the poet's pursuit will be successful, but it is still a mirage. There is a story in ancient Greek mythology that King Tantalus was punished for boasting that he had committed a crime-enduring eternal thirst and hunger.
He stood in the big lake, the water was as deep as his chin, there were fruit trees by the lake, and many fruits hung on his head. However, when he was thirsty and bowed his head to drink water, the lake receded; When he was hungry and reached for the fruit, the branches swung open, and the beautiful spring fruit was always within his reach.
The proximity of the goal makes failure more painful and regrettable. The most unacceptable failure is the failure that is only one step away from success.
