Busy days lead to more hardships, and leisure days are less. New sorrows often persist and old ones arise. ——Lu You, Song Dynasty, "Huanxi Sha·He Wujiu Yun" The busy days are more painful, the leisure days are less, and new sorrows often continue to arise from the old ones. I lazily drink the jade vase on the sand head and call you to admire the light from the small window. Blowing the trumpet at sunset is the most emotional thing.
Busy days lead to more suffering and leisure days are less. New sorrows often follow old ones. If you are a guest without a companion, you will be afraid of your travels. Graceful, Farewell to Friendship Translation and Notes
Translation
I am too lazy to go to the sandbank to drink anymore, so I can enjoy the scenery outside the window with you. The horn blowing at dusk is the most emotional.
Busy days are hard, and leisure days are rare; new sorrows often arise from old sorrows. I am afraid that you will travel far away without friends in a foreign country. Creation Background From the eleventh month of the second year of Longxing reign of Emperor Xiaozong of the Song Dynasty (1164) to the first month of the following year, Lu You and Han Yuanji got together in Zhenjiang. At that time, Lu You was serving as the magistrate of Zhenjiang, and Han Yuanji came to Zhenjiang Province to live temporarily with his relatives. . The two friends have been together for two months and have sung more than thirty poems in harmony with each other. This poem must be one of them. Appreciation
Lu You and Han Yuanji have been together in Zhenjiang for two months. They have visited Jin, Jiao and Beigu. There must be many opportunities to watch the river scenery and drink fine wine. When they are about to leave, they feel even more grateful for the time together. It's precious. Talking more together is better than anything else. It is under this situation that the saying "Laziness to the Shatou is drunk in the jade bottle" comes out. This sentence has its origins. There is a sentence in Du Fu's "Drunk Song": "When the wine is exhausted in the two jade bottles on the sand, all the guests are drunk, and I wake up alone. I know that it is more painful to be separated from the poor and the lowly, and I swallow my voice without tears." The first sentence of this poem comes from this. Not only are the words very similar, but they also reveal the meaning of separation. Since you are too lazy to watch the scenery and drink, then the better choice is to "call you to enjoy the small window light, the sunset is the most romantic." The setting sun triggers a feeling of attachment, and the twilight corner triggers a feeling of desolation. These feelings together form an environment suitable for conversation, so it is said to be "the most emotional." But what exactly is "emotion" at this time is difficult to express clearly and specifically because of its myriad of threads. Lu You (1125-1210), with the courtesy name Wu Guan and the nickname Fang Weng. Han nationality, native of Shanyin, Yuezhou (now Shaoxing, Zhejiang), and a famous poet in the Southern Song Dynasty. When he was young, he was influenced by his family's patriotism. During the reign of Emperor Gaozong, he took the examination of the Ministry of Rites and was deposed by Qin Hui. During the reign of Emperor Xiaozong, he was granted a Jinshi background. He entered Shu in middle age and devoted himself to military life. He was appointed to Baozhang Pavilion to be appointed. In his later years, he retired to his hometown. There are more than 9,000 poems in existence today, and they are extremely rich in content. He is the author of "Jiannan Poetry Manuscript", "Weinan Collected Works", "Southern Tang Book", "Laoxue'an Notes", etc.
Lu You went alone to the small hug, the spring was about to end, and I looked sadly at the fragrant grass road in Yuguan. Even if you are alone and desolate, you can still relieve yourself, and you can control your separation and sadness. The desolate smoke and cold rain help people feel sad, and the clothes are stained with tears without even realizing it. Come to greet him, bring him a car and a BMW, and thank him for his wine, friends, and poets. The willow leaves wrinkle with the song, and the pear blossoms shed tears. The festive season has passed by melancholy for a long time, and my strong heart occasionally comes from drunkenness. Suddenly there was a message outside the sword that Jibei was being collected. When I heard it for the first time, my clothes were filled with tears. When the lathe is opened and the lathe falls, it becomes empty. The white hair is cherished even more by lovers. Today there are two or three trees at the head of the river, pitifully spending their last spring with their leaves. My eyes are filled with thousands of flying flowers, I look back at my old friend thousands of miles away, and my heart is full of sorrow after drinking wine. Spring is gone, and there are thousands of red flowers and sorrow like the sea. Thousands of tears are shed, which makes people sad and heartbroken. No one can understand a hundred warblings, because the wind flies over the roses. The wine enters the sad heart and turns into tears of lovesickness. Things are different and people are not the same. Everything stops. If you want to speak, you will shed tears first.
