All the ancient poems of birds

bird

Tang Bai Juyi

Who knows that the life of a group is small, and it is generally flesh and blood.

I advise you not to pat a bird. My son will be in the nest waiting for his mother to come back.

Vernacular:

Who says the lives of these birds are insignificant? Everything in the universe has flesh and blood, and it is the same life. There is no more important truth. I advise you not to hit the bird on the branch. The chicks are still in the nest waiting for their mother to come back. You can't kill several people with one stone!

Extended data

Birds, in Bai's poems, vividly reflect the poet's practice. Du Fu initiated and established a new aesthetic concept, that is, to express social ideals and political ethics with display content in a more popular and standardized form. The so-called "writing for the time, writing songs and poems for things" is also the same aesthetic tendency of that era.

"Anyone who lives in a small group is generally skinny." The words used in Birds are just like Bai Juyi's inherent style: easy to understand, easy to read and catchy. People will certainly understand the moral and warning significance of this poem effortlessly. Even take it for granted that it has a natural connection with modern environmental protection.
