The first song, Li Bai meditates at night.
The foot of my bed is shining so brightly. Is there frost already?
I looked up at the moon and looked down, feeling nostalgic.
Speaking of homesickness, this poem by Shi Xian is the first thought of all China people who have a little knowledge of literature and pen and ink. This poem is clear and catchy, expressing people's homesickness, so it has been widely read for thousands of years and has become the most familiar classical poem in China. It does not pursue the novelty of imagination, and it also abandons the exquisite beauty of rhetoric; It expresses rich and profound contents with fresh and simple brushwork. Environment is environment, emotion is emotion, so vivid, so moving, never tired of reading, intriguing. No wonder some people praised it as "wonderful in ancient and modern times"
The second song, Meng Jiao's Wandering Sons.
The mother used the needle and thread in her hand to make clothes for her long-distance son.
Before leaving, I had a stitch for fear that my son would come back late and his clothes would be damaged.
Who can say that a filial child like the weak can repay his mother's love like the sunshine in spring?
This is an ode to maternal love. This poem eulogizes the greatest emotion of mankind-maternal love. In particular, the last two sentences of the poem, with popular image metaphors, entrusted children's passionate feelings and were widely praised for spring-like maternal love. There is no flowery rhetoric or clever carving in the whole poem. It is full of rich and mellow poetry in the fresh, smooth, simple and plain language, which has touched the heartstrings of many readers for thousands of years and caused thousands of wanderers to sing.
The third song, Bai Juyi's Farewell to Ancient Grass.
The long grass is so lush that the withered grass will thicken the color of the grass every autumn and winter.
Wildfire can't burn it out, but the spring breeze can revive it.
Weeds and wild flowers are all over the ancient road, and the end of the grass in the sun is your journey.
I once again sent my bosom friend, and the thick grass represented my deep affection.
Bai Juyi's poem, especially the second sentence, is the most famous and influential. "wildfire never quite consumes them, the spring breeze blows high" vividly shows the tenacious vitality of weeds, inspiring generations of China people to forge ahead, and the people will never die and struggle. His whole poem has a rigorous composition, natural and smooth language, lyrical scenery and harmonious artistic conception, which is called a swan song.
Fifth, Wang Zhihuan's "In the Heron Villa".
The sun sets slowly near the western hills, and the Yellow River flows into the East China Sea.
By going up one flight of stairs, look further.
"But you have broadened your horizons by three hundred miles", a poet's endless desire to explore, wants to see further and see where his eyesight can reach. The only way is to stand higher and "walk up a flight of stairs". These two poems vividly imply a philosophy: only by climbing high can you see far; If you look far, you must climb high. The extraordinary ambition of the poet who wrote this poem has also inspired the people of China to be high-spirited.
The fourth song, Wang Wei's "I miss my Shandong brothers on vacation in the mountains".
I am a lonely stranger in a strange land, and I miss my family more often during the holidays.
When I think of my brothers' bodies climbing high, I will feel a little regret for not being able to reach me.
This poem was written by a homesick wanderer. The loneliness of living in a foreign land is bleak, so I always miss my hometown and people. When I meet festivals, I miss you doubly. Poetry jumps repeatedly, implicative and deep, simple and natural, tortuous and changeable. For thousands of years, "I miss my family twice during the festive season" has become a famous saying of homesickness for wanderers, which has touched the hearts of many wanderers. China people's unique holiday homesickness comes from this.
The fifth song is "Farewell to the post of Deputy Governor Du".
Across the wall of Sanqin, across a layer of fog, across a river.
We said goodbye sadly, and our two officials went in opposite directions.
After all, the world is just a small place.
If you don't do anything wrong, the child will get wet with towels.
This poem is a masterpiece of farewell. Poetic comfort: don't be sad when you leave. Triple "However, China holds our friendship, and heaven is still our neighbor", and its towering peaks highly summarize the scene of "profound friendship, mountains and rivers are irresistible". Great words are all made by themselves, which have been passed down through the ages and become household names. At the end of the couplet, the theme of "sending" is pointed out. The whole poem is full of ups and downs, pulsating flow and broad-minded artistic conception. It washed away the sadness in ancient farewell poems, and it is a unique stone tablet with bright and clear tone and high freshness.
Sixth, Li Shen's "sympathy for farmers".
At noon in summer, the sun is very hot, farmers are still working, and beads are dripping into the soil.
Who knows that every grain of Chinese food is hard?
This poem is about the hardships of labor, and the fruits of labor are hard to come by. The sigh and warning that "every grain is hard" broke away from empty and abstract preaching and became a profound motto of flesh and blood. This poem does not pay attention to specific people and things. The poet chooses typical life details and well-known facts to tell a simple truth: the fruits of labor are hard to come by.
