Delighting in Rain on a Spring Night
Du Fu
Good rain knows the season, when spring comes.
Sneak into the night with the wind, moisten things silently.
The wild path is dark, and the river is bright.
Look at the red and wet place, the flowers in Jinguancheng are heavy.
This is a masterpiece depicting the rainy scene on a spring night and showing a happy mood. Praise "rain" with a "good" word from the beginning. In life, "good" is often used to praise people who do good things. Praising rain with "good" now will arouse the association of people who do good things. Next, personify the rain, saying that it "knows the season" and knows how to meet the objective needs. Isn't it? In spring, everything germinates and grows. It just needs to rain, and it begins to rain. Look how nice it is! The second couplet further shows the "good" of rain. Rain is "good" because it is timely and "moistens things silently". Spring rain, usually accompanied by a breeze, carefully moistens everything. However, there are exceptions. Sometimes, it will be accompanied by cold wind, from rain to snow.
Sometimes, it will be accompanied by strong winds and heavy rains. Although it rains in spring, it is not a typical spring rain. It will only hurt things and not "embellish things", naturally it will not make people "happy" and it is impossible to get a "good" evaluation. Therefore, the "knowing season" of the first couplet alone is not enough to fully show the "good" of rain. The second couplet is a typical spring rain-accompanied by gentle drizzle, the word "good" has been implemented. "Sneak into the night with the wind and moisten things silently." This is still anthropomorphic. The combination of "sneaking into the night" and "silence" not only shows that rain is drizzle accompanied by breeze, but also shows that rain is intended to "moisten things quietly" and has no intention of seeking "goodness" If you are interested in seeking "good", it will come during the day and create a little momentum for people to see and hear clearly. Just because it deliberately "moistens things quietly" and has no intention of seeking "goodness", it chose a time that does not hinder people's work and labor, and quietly and carefully went underground at the night when people were sleeping. If it rains so well, I hope it rains enough and stays up all night. If it clears up just for a while, then "moistening things silently" will not be very thorough. The poet grasped this point and wrote the third couplet. On a less gloomy night, the path is easier to see than the field, and the river is easier to distinguish than the shore. What about now? Looking around, "the wild path is dark, and the river boat is bright." Only the lights on the boat are on. Besides, you can't even see the river, and you can't tell the path clearly. The sky is covered with dark clouds and the ground is as black as clouds. All right! It looks certain that it will rain until dawn. The tail couplet is about an imaginary scene. After a night of such "good rain", everything will be nourished and prosperous. One of the flowers of all things, the flower that best represents spring scenery, is about to drop with the rain. Wait until tomorrow morning to have a look! The whole Jinguan City (Chengdu) is a peanut tree, "red and wet", red and heavy, and merged into a sea of flowers. So, what about the seedlings in the field? What about the Woods on the mountain? Everything. Everything? Pu Qilong said: "It is easy to write about rain and cut the night, but difficult to cut the spring." This poem "Delighting in Rain on a Spring Night" not only cuts the night and cuts the spring, but also writes a noble character of a typical spring rain, that is, "good rain", which can be seen.
The poet's noble personality is also the noble personality of all "good people". The poet looks forward to such "good rain" and loves our "good rain". Therefore, although the word "Xi" in the title does not appear in the poem, the meaning of "Xi" breaks through the cocoon "(Pu Qilong's Reading). The poet looked forward to the spring rain "moistening things silently", and it began to rain. As soon as he came up, he called "good" with joy.
What was written in the second couplet was obviously heard. The poet listened attentively and heard the rain pouring down underground on a spring night, just to "moisten things quietly". Dont Ask For Help knew he was naturally "happy" and couldn't sleep. Because the rain is "moist and silent", I can't hear clearly. I am afraid that the rain will stop, so I will go out and watch it. What is written in the third section? I can see it clearly.
Seeing the strong rain, I can't help but imagine the beautiful scenery of the city in spring after dawn. How vivid his infinite joy is! Li Yue, a poet in the middle Tang Dynasty, wrote a poem "Watching the Rain": "Mulberry leaves come from the soil without leaves, and the flute pipe welcomes the Longshui Temple. Seeing Zhumen singing and dancing, I am afraid that the sound of spring will swallow the strings. " Du Fu is more interested in spring rain than those who watch singing and dancing in Zhumen.
Isn't the happiness of "moistening things silently" a very noble feeling?
On a spring night, I smell the flute in Los Angeles.
Lipper
Yu Di's dark flying sound scattered into the spring breeze in Los Angeles.
In this serenade, I heard the breaking sound of willow trees. No one can miss home!
Los Angeles is now Luoyang, Henan. It was a very prosperous city in the Tang Dynasty and was called the East Capital. On a spring night, the lights of thousands of households gradually went out, and the noise of the day had long been calm. Suddenly there was a loud flute, and sad and euphemistic tunes flew over Los Angeles with the spring breeze. At this time, a poet who is far away from home is still asleep. He stood by the window, staring at the bright moon like a "white jade plate" alone, listening to the distant flute, lost in thought. The flute plays a song "Folding Willow", which belongs to the ancient music of Han Yuefu and expresses the pain of parting. In ancient times, when parting, willow branches were often broken off from the roadside to send; Willow, willow is just to express their reluctance. On such a spring night, listening to such a song full of parting feelings, who can not miss homesickness? Therefore, the poet couldn't help singing this four-line poem.
This poem closely follows the word "smell" throughout, expressing his feeling of smelling the flute. I don't know whose this flute belongs to, but the piper who has never appeared is just bragging and listening, and he is not going to let others know about him, but he unexpectedly touched many listeners. This is the meaning of the word "dark" in Whose Jade Emperor flies secretly. "Scattered in the spring breeze in Los Angeles" is an artistic exaggeration. In the poet's imagination, this beautiful flute flew all over Los Angeles, as if the whole city had heard it. The poet's exaggeration is not without life basis. The flute is originally a high note. When it is quiet, with the help of the spring breeze, it is not an exaggeration to say that it flies all over Los Angeles.
The flute came, and I didn't know what it was at first sight. After listening carefully for a while, I realized that it was a broken willow. That's why I wrote the third sentence saying, "I heard the willow break in this serenade." The rhetoric of this sentence is very particular, not listening to a broken willow song, but saying that I heard a broken willow in music. The word "folding willow" refers not only to the title of the song, but also to the title of the song. Folding willow represents a custom, a scene and an emotion, and folding willow is almost synonymous with parting. It can evoke a series of concrete memories and reawaken people's homesickness. "Who can't stand homesickness" seems to refer to others and everyone, but isn't it Li Bai himself who is homesick first?
Loving one's hometown is a noble emotion, which is interlinked with patriotism. I was born in Sri Lanka and grew up in my hometown. As a member of the motherland, her image is particularly unforgettable. Li Bai's poem is about smelling the flute, but its significance is not limited to describing music, but also expresses his yearning for his hometown, which is its touching place.
Li Yi's "Smelling Flute in Spring Night"
In Hanshan's "The Flute Calls the Earth", the exiles look at each other with tears.
Countless geese parked by the lake in the evening have been eager to fly north until dawn.
This song "Smelling Flute on a Spring Night" was a homesick work when the poet moved to Jianghuai.
From Li Yi's poems, we can know that he has been to Yangzhou, Huaihe River and Xuyi (now Fengyang East, Anhui Province). The poem "Hanshan" is located in the southeast of Xuzhou City, Jiangsu Province. Since the Eastern Jin Dynasty, it has been a strategic place in the Huaihe River Basin and has been a battlefield for many times. The poet called himself a "moving guest" and came from the relegated southern army. The main purpose of this poem is not to write about the homesickness of foot soldiers, but to blame immigrants.
This poem is about the homesickness caused by the smell of flute in the army at the night of early spring in Huaibei. Write the first two sentences and smell the flute. At this time, spring came, the mountains were still green, and the night was still cold. Someone in the army played the flute, as if the Qiangdi was calling for spring to return to the earth, and the scenery was like the Great Wall. The sound of flutes came one after another, which excited the homesickness of the foot soldiers and devastated the relocated households. They couldn't help crying and longed to fly back to their hometown in the northern part of the Central Plains immediately. Then, the poet remembered the legend that wild geese returned to the north. Every autumn, geese fly from the north to Yan Hui Peak in Hengshan, Hunan for the winter. I will fly back to the north next spring. This legend is used in the last two sentences. The poet fully understands the feeling that geese are eager to fly north as soon as spring arrives, and admires the freedom of geese to fly north as long as they wait until spring, so he says, "Don't wait until dawn." Compared with geese, migratory birds can't return to the north even in spring. Obviously, there is regret and resentment here: the spring of emigration-the forgiveness of the imperial court-has not yet come with the natural spring.
With a trance-like state of mind in the northern frontier, the poet actually wrote the grievances of the people who moved south, which made him feel unique and interesting. He also borrowed wild geese to fly north in spring, not only to invite the guests to return. The metaphor is appropriate, the technique is euphemistic and quite innovative. The whole poem is ingenious in conception, complex in emotion, jumping in image and dense in needle and thread. The title is "Smelling the flute in spring night", but the first two sentences seem to say that spring has not come back yet, so someone "plays the flute to call for spring return", which makes the guests very sad; At the turning point of the last two sentences, I used the legend of Yan Hui Peak to imagine that the flute would summon spring, and the geese flew north overnight. All this is induced by the sound of the flute. Spring and night are bustling places, symbolizing political neglect and deep hope. Between the first sentence and the second sentence, from the scene in front of us to the imaginary legend, from reality to hope, from the cold mountain flute to the moving guests, and then to the wild geese walking at night in Dongting, the poet's complex thoughts and feelings are vividly displayed in the superposition of this series of specific images. It begins when people call for spring to return. As the geese fly north, people leave the geese and return. Spring has not warmed the world, with endless grievances and unspeakable melancholy.
Wang Zhihuan's "Liangzhou Ci" says: "Why do Qiang people complain about Liu? Spring breeze is not enough. " This is the heroic spirit of frontier fortress poems in the prosperous Tang Dynasty. The theme of Li Yi's poem is actually the same, but it means that spring breeze can't come to Jiangnan. Deliberate scenery is slightly like frontier poems, but it is more resentful and less heroic, and its artistic conception is not as good as Wang's poems. However, this is the characteristic of the times of poetry in the middle Tang Dynasty.
Farewell friends in spring night.
Chen Ziang
Smoke from a candle, and a golden cup is held high to welcome the feast.
Farewell hall in the hall to recall the friendship of friends, bypass the mountain behind the water, a long journey.
The feast lasted until the moon disappeared in the high trees and the Milky Way disappeared at dawn.
Walking on this long Luoyang road, I don't know when I will meet you.
At the beginning of this poem, I wrote that the farewell banquet is coming to an end, and the mood and silence of breaking up are provocative. The author grasps the psychological state of this moment as the starting point of poetry, and goes straight into the emotional climax naturally, with deep feelings. "Silver candle spits smoke" with the word "spit", which makes people want to see the expression of being relatively silent and listless, just staring at the smoke of silver candle. The word "Golden Zun is aligned with Yan" is used, which means that in the face of Chinese banquets, there is nothing to comfort except the idea that Golden Zun "advises you to make more wine". In this realm, in silence, we can see the depth of other meanings.
Zhuan Xu's "Going out of the hall and thinking about the harp and walking around the mountains and rivers" refers to the pleasure of friends' feasting, which originated from "I have a guest, playing the drums and playing the piano" by Luming Literature, Xiaoya, which means to use the harmony of the phonology when playing stringed instruments to compare the profound friendship. "Mountains and rivers" means a long way to go, and it is the antithesis of "Qin and Se". In contrast, it can't help but make people feel inner waves: "going out of the hall" hurts "the piano"; "Don't take the road" is far away, and I hate "mountains and rivers". These two sentences deliberately write the lingering feelings of parting, which makes people sad.
The necklace couplet "The moon hides high trees, and the long river does not know the sky" inherits what I saw and heard when I saw the broken arm from indoor to outdoor. At this time, the high shadow covered the low moon in the west; The long river of sadness was drowned in the dawn. There is a word "hide" and a word "no" here, indicating that time urges people to leave, and the time for parting has finally arrived.
At the end of the two sentences, I watched my friends stroll along this endless ancient road in Luoyang, and I couldn't help feeling that I didn't know when I would meet again. There is a word "harmony" at the end of the sentence, which emphasizes that it will be difficult after the meeting, revealing the faint sadness between people.
In this poem, the author does not use the sad sentence of sigh, but sees deep affection in silence. To achieve this state, it should be tepid. Fire is too sad and shallow; "Wen" lacks meaning and feelings. This poem is written calmly and appropriately, just like the sound of pipa strings. The weather is elegant, and there is a lot of affection without sorrow.
