Later, Emperor Yang Di wrote this song again. There are 47 volumes of Yuefu Poems, including seven pieces of Moonlit Night on a Spring River, including two by Yang Di.
Zhang's poems, written for the purpose of fiction, are the most famous, though different from the original tune. At present, the specific creative background is unknown.
This poem from the birth of the moon to the setting of the moon combines the objective reality with the dreams of the people in the poem, which is dreamy and hazy. It can also be said that the feelings of the whole poem are like a dream, which gradually unfolds with the passage of the scenery under the moon. It is also virtual and real, and it is jumping and intermittent. Sometimes people can't grasp what they have written, but they feel that there are profound and rich things in it, waiting for us to dig and appreciate.
There are thirty-six sentences in the whole poem, four of which have one rhyme and nine rhymes, and each rhyme constitutes a short paragraph.
The beginning of the poem points out the words spring, river and moon, but the poet's vision is not limited to this. The first sentence, "the spring tide is even the sea level", has included the sea. The second sentence "The bright moon on the sea was born in the tide" tells us that the bright moon grows with the tide. Here, the poet does not use the rising sound, but the growing sound, which has another meaning. The bright moon rises, but it is a common sight and relatively dull. "The bright moon is born in the tide" is permeated with the poet's subjective imagination, as if both the bright moon and the tide have life. They are like sisters, growing up and playing together. The word "life" brings life to the whole poem. Three or four sentences: "I drift thousands of miles, where there is no moon by the river!" " It's like a water wave overflowing. The river and the sea are connected, the spring tide is slack, and the moonlight enters the river with the tide. Where the tide goes, the moonlight follows, and where there is no moonlight shining on the river?
Next: "The river flows around Fangdian, and the moonlight shines like graupel on the flower forest. You can't feel the frost flying in the air or see it on the white sand. " These four sentences are written by Jiang to flowers and from flowers to the moon, which set off the bright moonlight with other scenery. Fangdian is a country full of flowers. "graupel" is a snow bead. "The river flows around Fangdian, and the flowers in the moonlight are like graupel", which means that the river winds around the countryside full of flowers, and the bright moon comes with the river, sprinkling her brilliance on the flowers, as if sprinkling a layer of snow beads on the flowers. "Frost doesn't fly in the air", because moonlight is like frost, so the frost flying in the air is imperceptible. The ancients thought that frost fell from the sky, just like snow, so it was called "flowing frost". "You can't see the white sand on the pavilion" means that under the Bai Yueguang, the white sand on the river beach is not easy to distinguish. One sentence is written in the sky, the other is written on the ground, and the whole universe is stained with the white of the bright moon, as if it had been purified. From this state, it is natural to think of a profound philosophy of life, so the third paragraph goes on to say:
"Jiang Tianyi color without fine dust, our headquarters solitary moon wheel. Who saw the moon by the river for the first time? When was the photo taken at the beginning of Jiangyue? " There is not even a speck of dust in the sky, only a solitary moon is hanging high in the air, which is even brighter. Who saw this bright moon for the first time by the river? In what year did Jiang Yue begin to throw his glory to the world? This is a naive question, a mystery that never has an answer. Since Zhang raised this question, Li Bai and Su Shi have also raised similar questions. Li Bai said, "When will the sun and moon come? I stopped my glass and asked now. ..... Today people don't see Gu Yue, but they are used to seeing the ancients this month. " Su Shi said, "When will there be a bright moon?" I take my glass from a distance. I don't know what year it is tonight. "(Shuidiao) This is not only about scenery, but also the beginning of exploring the universe and tracing back to life.
The fourth paragraph changed from doubt to emotion: "Life is endless from generation to generation, and Jiang Yue is only similar every year. I don't know who Jiang Yue is waiting for, but I see the Yangtze River delivering water. " Life is easy to get old and generations change, but Jiang Yue hasn't changed year after year. She was always born at sea and hung in the air as if waiting for someone, but she never waited. The water of the Yangtze River has been flowing. When will she send the person she expects? The poet's imagination originated from the word "Lonely" in The Lonely Moon Wheel, from loneliness to expectation of the moon, and then jumped from expectation of the moon to thinking expectation of the woman;
"A piece of white clouds leisurely, green maple pu sorrow. Who will go boating tonight? Where do you miss Yue Ming Building? " Pu, Shuikou and the branch, that is, where Jiang Xing broke up. The white clouds are drifting away, which is enough to touch people's sadness, not to mention the green maple leaves in Pukou, which adds a lot of sadness. "Whose boat tonight? Where do you miss Yue Ming Building? " Whose wanderer is floating outside on the boat in the moonlight? In which building does the homesick woman miss him? One is about vagrancy, and the other is about thinking about women. It is the same kind of parting, and it has a lingering charm from two aspects.
Starting from the sixth paragraph, I will write about thinking about women. Cao Zhi's poem "Seven Sorrow" said: "The bright moon shines on tall buildings, and the time is drifting. There are sad women in the world, and sorrow is more than sorrow. " Zhang described the moonlight in more detail with these words: "The poor wander upstairs, the moon, so they should leave people to make up for the mirror. I can't be wrapped in the curtain of Yuhu Lake, so I have to smash it on the anvil and return it. " The beautiful moonlight seems to be interested in keeping Sifu company, always lingering in her boudoir and refusing to leave. It must have shone on her dresser. The moonlight shines on the door curtain and cannot be rolled away; Shine on the anvil, brush it and come back. She is so dependent on others, but she is so annoying that Sifu can't forget her distant relative under the same bright moon: "I don't know each other at this time, and I look at you under the full moon." The swan goose flew too long and the ichthyosaur dived into the water. "A bright moon shines in two places at the same time. Just when I miss you, you must be looking at the bright moon and thinking of me. There is a bright moon hanging in the middle like a mirror. We looked at each other, but we couldn't hear each other's call. I want to throw myself into your arms in the moonlight, but we are too far apart. There is a vast sky in the world, but the swan goose who is good at long-distance flight can't fly to your side with the moonlight; There is a long flowing water, and diving ichthyosaurs can only ripple layer by layer, making it difficult to swim to you. How can I know you? " Last night, I had a dream in the idle pool, but I didn't return in the poor spring. In spring, the river flows away, and the pond falls to the west. "Think of that woman's dream last night: it's halfway through spring, but her husband hasn't come back yet. The river keeps running and is about to send away spring; The setting sun on the river beach is also more inclined to the west, and it is almost impossible to rely on the bright moon to pin acacia. These four sentences combine dreams with reality. A thoughtful woman can't tell whether she is dreaming or waking up.
In the last paragraph, it is almost dawn: "The slanting moon hides the sea fog, and the Jieshi Xiaoxiang is infinite. I don't know how many people go home every month, and the moon shakes the river tree. " The slanting moon is heavy and gradually submerged in the sea fog, and everything in the moonlight gradually disappears, as if the curtain were closed after a scene. How can I get rid of this night's lovesickness, this dreamlike lovesickness? Wandering about thinking about women, I don't know how many people are coming back tonight! Look at the afterglow of the falling moon shaking the trees all over the river, as if infinite sympathy!
Moonlit Night on the Spring River is an old theme of Wu Shengge, Yuefu in Qing Dynasty. It is said that it was written by Chen Houzhu, and Emperor Yang Di also wrote this topic. They are all flashy and gorgeous palace poems. Although Zhang's poem is based on the old theme of "Moonlit Night on a Spring River", the theme is the desolation of the prodigal girl, which has been common since the end of the Han Dynasty, Zhang has opened up a new artistic conception, showing new interest with extraordinary artistic conception, making this poem a swan song throughout the ages. Zhang also established an indelible position in the history of literature with this poem.
The poet put the parting of sorrow on the background of moonlight on the riverside, and its beautiful scenery showed the pain of parting of sorrow. The contrast between Jiang Yue and life shows that life is short, and in the short life, the sadness of separation is getting stronger and stronger. Although this poem is a bit sad, it doesn't look decadent as a whole. It shows the beauty of nature, the rarity of youth and the yearning for a better life. The sincere exploration of the universe and life is also of profound significance.
"Moonlit Night on the Spring River", the title is * * * five words, representing five things. The whole poem is written closely with these five words, but there is a key point, that is, the "moon", spring, river, flowers and night are all set off around the moon. Poetry begins with the birth of the moon, then writes about the river, Fangdian, Flower Forest and Sha Ting under the moon, then repeatedly expresses the thoughts of women under the moon, and finally ends with the sunset under the moon. There are masters and slaves, and the masters and slaves cooperate skillfully to form a complete poetic image and a wonderful artistic realm.
The description of the scenery in this poem is varied and colorful, which is very attractive. With moonlight, there will be moonlight born on the sea. The moonlight is like a graupel in a flower forest. The moonlight is imperceptibly on the Sha Ting, the moonlight is on the dresser, the moonlight is on the dressing anvil, and the moon is slanting and slanting. What a change! Although the color of the scenery in the poem is unified in the bright light, it has changed in the unity because of setting off tides, Fangdian, Hualin, white clouds, breeze, Yuhu Lake, idle pond, falling flowers, sea fog and river trees, and achieved colorful results.
