Appreciation of the famous line of farewell to friends, "I urge you to drink another glass of wine, there will be no old friends when you leave Yangguan in the west":
"Weicheng Song" / Sending the Second Envoy of the Yuan Dynasty to Anxi"
Tang Dynasty: Wang Wei
The morning rain in Weicheng is light and dusty, and the guesthouses are green and willow-colored.
I advise you to drink another glass of wine. There will be no old friends when you leave Yangguan in the west.
Appreciation
This poem is titled "Weicheng Song" and is published in Volume 128 of "Complete Poems of the Tang Dynasty". The following is the appreciation of this poem by Mr. Liu Xuekai, executive director of the Tang Dynasty Literature Research Association and president of the Li Shangyin Research Association.
The first two sentences of this poem describe the time, place, and environment of farewell. In the early morning, the guest houses in Weicheng, the endless post road extending from east to west, the willow trees surrounding the guest houses and on both sides of the post road. All this seems to be an extremely ordinary scene, but when read, it is picturesque and full of lyrical atmosphere. "Chaoyu" plays an important role here. The rain in the morning didn't last long and stopped just after it moistened the dust. On the highway going west from Chang'an, there are usually cars and horses passing by, and dust is flying in the air. The morning rain stopped, the weather was fine, and the road looked clean and refreshing. The word "浥" in "浥Qingchen" means moist. It is used very appropriately here, showing that the rain clears the dust but does not wet the road. It is just right, as if God has specially arranged a road for people who travel far. A dusty road. A guest house is a traveler's companion; willow trees are a symbol of farewell. Choosing these two things naturally meant to connect with the farewell. They are usually always associated with restraint and sadness, showing a mood of ecstasy. But today, due to the morning rain, it has a unique bright and fresh look - "the guest house is green and the willows are new". On weekdays, the road dust is flying, and the willows on the roadside are inevitably shrouded in gray dust and fog. Only after a morning rain does it wash out its true green color, so it is called "new", and because of the newness of the willows, it reflects the green color of the guest house. In short, from the clear sky to the clean roads, from the green guesthouses to the green willows, a picture with fresh and bright colors is formed, providing a typical natural environment for this farewell. This is an affectionate farewell, but it is not an ecstatic farewell. On the contrary, it reveals a light and hopeful mood. Words such as "Qingchen", "Qingqing" and "Xin" have soft and bright pronunciation, which strengthens the readers' feeling.
Quatrains are strictly limited in length. In this poem, all the details of how to hold a farewell banquet, how to toast frequently at the banquet, and to say goodbye diligently, how to reluctantly leave when setting off, how to gaze into the distance after setting off, etc., are all omitted. Only the host's words at the end of the farewell banquet are omitted. Suggestions for drinking: Let’s have another drink. Once we leave Yangguan, we will never see our old friends again. The poet is like a skilled photographer, taking the most expressive shots.
The banquet has been going on for a long time, the wine full of farewell has been drunk many times, and the words of polite farewell have been repeated many times. The moment for the friends to go on their way finally has to come, and the feelings of farewell between the host and the guest are at this moment. reached the top. The host's words to persuade him to drink seemed to come out of his mouth, which was a concentrated expression of the strong and deep feelings of farewell at this moment.
Three or four sentences are a whole. To deeply understand the deep affection contained in this invitation to drink before leaving, we have to involve "Going out of Yangguan from the West". Yangguan is located at the western end of the Hexi Corridor, opposite Yumenguan to the north. Since the Han Dynasty, it has been the passage from the mainland to the Western Regions. The country was strong in the Tang Dynasty, and there were frequent exchanges between the inland and the Western Regions. Joining the army or going on missions to Yangguan was a desirable feat in the minds of the people of the prosperous Tang Dynasty. But at that time, the west of Yangguan was still a desolate and desolate area, and the scenery was very different from that in the mainland. My friend's journey out of Yangguan in the West was a great feat, but it also required a long journey of thousands of miles, and the hardship and loneliness of walking alone in poverty. Therefore, "I urge you to drink another glass of wine" before leaving is like a cup of rich emotional nectar soaked in all the rich and deep friendship of the poet. There is not only a feeling of farewell, but also a deep concern for the situation and mood of the traveler, and a sincere wish to cherish the journey ahead. For the farewell person, persuading the other person to "drink one more glass of wine" not only allows the friend to take away one more point of friendship from him, but also intentionally or unintentionally delays the breakup so that the other person can stay for one more moment. The feeling of "no one knows anyone before leaving Yangguan in the west" does not only belong to travelers. I had a lot to say before leaving Yiyi, but there were so many things to say that I didn’t even know where to start. On such occasions, there is often a wordless silence. "I urge you to drink another glass of wine" is a way to break this silence unconsciously and a way to express the rich and complex emotions at the moment. What the poet has not said is much richer than what has been said. In short, although the three or four sentences capture only a moment of the scene, it is a moment that contains extremely rich content.
What this poem describes is the most universal parting. It has no special background, but has a deep feeling of farewell, which makes it suitable for singing at most farewell banquets. It was later incorporated into Yuefu and became the most popular and longest-sung song.
