Yuan Haowen - Asking what love is in the world, teaching about life and death (full poem transcription)
Moyuer - Yanqiu Ci
Yuan It's easy to ask
Ask what love is in the world, and it will teach you the promise of life and death.
Flying travelers from all over the world, Lao Wing has experienced the cold and heat several times.
Happiness is fun, parting is painful, and there are even more idiotic children.
You should say something, the clouds are thousands of miles away, the snow is falling on thousands of mountains, only the shadow is going to whom.
On Hengfen Road, the flute and drum were played in loneliness, and the desolate smoke is still plain.
How come the ghosts of the mountain are crying in the wind and rain?
The sky is also jealous, and if you don’t believe it, the birds and swallows will all be in the dust.
Throughout the ages, in order to entertain the scholar, he sang and drank wildly and visited Yanqiu.
Everyone must be familiar with the first sentence of this poem. However, I may not understand the whole word, so today I will record it and tell the story. That year, Yuan Haowen went to Bingzhou to take an examination, and met a goose catcher on the way. The goose catcher told Yuan Haowen a strange thing he encountered today: He set a net to catch wild geese today and caught one, but one escaped from the net. Unexpectedly, the goose that escaped the net did not fly away, but hovered over him for a while, and then dropped to the ground and died. Yuan Haowen looked at the two geese in the hands of the goose catcher, and felt uneasy for a moment. So he spent money to buy the two geese, and then buried them on the bank of the Fen River. They marked them with stones, named them "Yan Qiu", and wrote "Yan Qiu Ci".
I have long known the sentence "Ask what love is in the world, and it will tell you whether life or death will make you agree." However, it was only now that I read the whole article, understood the story in it, and truly understood it. Later, I always liked it and often silently recited those unforgettable words.
This is a poem about things. There is a short preface before the poem: "In the fifth year of Taihe, when I was at the age of Yichou, I went to the imperial examination to merge with the state. I met a goose hunter on the road and said, 'Now that I have caught a goose, I will kill it.' The one who fell out of the net screamed and could not go, so he threw himself to the ground and died." . 'I bought it and buried it on the Fen River. I named it Yanqiu. That is to say, Dayan's death in love deeply shocked him, so at the beginning of the poem, he suddenly asked a strange question, out of nowhere. The author originally wanted to sing about wild geese, but he started from the "worldly world" and used humans to imitate wild geese, giving the wild goose emotions a meaning that transcends nature. The imagination is extremely novel. I also made a preliminary copy of Yan's love story below; the ancients believed that when love is at its extreme, "the living can die, and the dead can live." "Promising each other in life and death" is such an extreme affection!
Thinking of the two wild geese in the distance. They go south to overwinter in the winter and return to the north in the spring. They stay and fly together in "several times of cold and heat", relying on each other for life and loving each other deeply. There is both joyful reunion and bitterness of parting, but no force can separate them. And after "The Snare Broken the Dream of Two Lives", his lover passed away, and An Neng lived alone! So the "off-grid" made up his mind to follow Jiuquan and "throw himself to death".
After finishing the film, the author used the surrounding scenery to highlight the misery of the wild goose who died in love. In the place where Lone Goose rests, when Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty crossed the Fen River to worship Fenyin, flutes and drums were noisy and songs were heard everywhere; now, the plain forest is deserted, with smoke like weaving, the sound of flutes and drums is silent, and the atmosphere is desolate. In ancient times and today, people and geese feel the sadness of swan geese dying for love even more. However, the dead cannot be resurrected, summoning the souls is of no avail, and the mountain ghosts mourn themselves in vain. Here, the author combines the description of the scene with the description of the emotion, which adds to the tragic atmosphere.
At the end of the poem, the author pays tribute to the swan goose who died in love. He said that the death of the swan goose was so high that even God would be jealous. Although it cannot be said to be more important than Mount Tai, it cannot be compared with the death of the Ying'er and the swallow. The same thing will end up in the loess. Its reputation will be "eternal" and will be sung and praised by later poets.
The writing of the whole poem is not complicated, but the writing is flexible and changeable. It uses facts to answer the question of what true love is, and puts the philosophy of life beyond simple understanding. In "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", Li Mochou's mad song makes her cry, and the male and female eagles drown themselves one after another, which adds to the artistic conception of this article.
I think Ayako was deeply attracted by this word when she first saw it
