The Song of Burying Flowers expresses Lin Daiyu's anxious experience of her own existence and her confused feelings about life in the process of complicated struggles such as life and death, love and hate.
Cao Xueqin (Qing Dynasty) from "Poems of Burying Flowers"
Excerpt: Where is the fragrant hill at the end of the sky?
if you don't have a beautiful bag, a pure land will hide the wind.
it's better to be clean and clean than to be trapped in a ditch.
I died and was buried today. I don't know when I will die.
The person who buried the flowers today laughs. Who did he know when he buried them?
Let's see that the spring flowers are gradually falling, which is when the beauty dies of old age;
no sad songs for me, I don't know when flowers fall and people die!
Even if you fly to the end of heaven and earth, where is the soul mound where fragrant flowers are buried? It is better to use this splendid sachet to restrain your delicate bones. Then pile up a pile of clean soil and bury your peerless romance. May your noble body be born clean and die clean. Don't let it get a little dirty and be abandoned in that dirty river ditch.
flowers, you died today, and I'll take you to be buried. Who knows when I, a poor man, suddenly died? I buried the flowers today, and people laughed at my infatuation. Who will bury me when I die? If you don't believe me, please look at the withered spring scenery, the flowers are falling gradually. That's the moment when the girl in the boudoir dies of aging. Once the spring disappears, the girl will be as white as silk. Flowers wither and people die, and flowers and people don't know each other! Expand data expand data
Poetry personifies flowers, uses flowers to describe people, and closely links the fate of flowers with the fate of people, effectively accusing those evil forces in the nature that destroy flowers and the dark society that stifle people. Writing flowers clearly, writing people actually, blending the characters' experiences, fate, thoughts and feelings into the description of scenery and things, creating a vivid artistic conception with rich connotations and strong artistic appeal.
The whole poem is a true portrayal of Lin Daiyu's life concept and life value. The whole poem is lyrical and incisive, the language is like crying, the sound is sad, and every word is bloody and tearful. Every word in the whole poem is not from the heart, and every word is not condensed by blood and tears, which shows Lin Daiyu's experience and sigh about her life. "Burying Flowers" describes the hero's aloof and arrogant character, unwilling to be humiliated and defiled, and unwilling to bow down and yield when he fantasizes about freedom and happiness. It is for its ideological value.
