Source: The Fisherman by the Tang Dynasty poet Liu Zongyuan.
Original text:
The fisherman rests on the western hills at night, learns the clear water in the morning, and cooks for firewood.
The sun disappears like a cloud, and the sound of sculls comes from green mountains and green waters.
Looking back, the fishing boat has drifted below the horizon, and white clouds are floating in the mountains, chasing each other.
Translation:
In the evening, the fisherman anchored his boat at the foot of the western hills. At dawn, he picked up the clear water of Xiangjiang River and lit Chu Zhuxiang. When the sun rose, he disappeared, and the wooden paddles sounded, suddenly seeing green mountains and green waters. Looking back, he has sailed to the center of the sky; On the top of the rock, only unintentional white clouds chase each other.
Appreciate:
"Then, at sunrise, he walked through the fog, and in the green mountains and green waters, only the creak of his paddle was left." This is the most wonderful sentence to show the poet's skill and the essence of the whole poem. If arranged from the content, these two sentences describe the following scenes: on the one hand, natural scenery: cigarettes sell sunrises, mountains and rivers are green; On the one hand, it is the whereabouts of fishermen: fishing boats leave the shore and there is a loud noise in space. However, the poet did not organize his poems according to this kind of life logic, but started from his own feelings and presented two scenes alternately, which showed the subtle changes in nature more clearly.
The previous sentences, "Work at sunrise, rest at sunset" and "No one is seen", one is a common sight in the morning, and the other is a sudden realization that I don't know when the fishing boat will quietly leave. There is no necessary connection between the two, but now the same sentence has aroused people's imagination: it seems that at the moment of sunrise, the sky is dark and everything suddenly becomes clear, making people suddenly find that the fishing boat is gone. The sudden feeling of "not seeing people" became a symbol, which opened the boundary before and after sunrise. The sunrise process in real life is strengthened by art and appears in front of us with exaggerated rhythm. Right after …
"One Nai One" and "Landscape Green" make the sounds heard in the ears and the scenery seen in the eyes have a strange dependence.
