Bodhisattvaman·Hua Nugu Original Text_Translation and Appreciation

The flower slave drum has not stopped to urge the flowers, but when I wake up from the drunkenness, I can see the remaining red dancing. I couldn't bear to cover the rest of my wine glass, and cried several times in the face of the wind. The powdery fragrance looks away but the moon is empty. The moon is also different at that time, and the hair on the temples is shining miserably. ——Nalan Xingde, Qing Dynasty, "Bodhisattva Man·Hua Nu Drum, urging the flowers to bloom before they stop" Bodhisattva Man·Hua Nu Drum, urging the flowers to bloom before they stop.

Translation

The drumbeat urging the spring flowers to bloom has not stopped, and after waking up from the drunkenness, I can already see the fallen flowers flying in the air. I couldn't bear to drink up the remaining thin wine in the glass. Facing the autumn wind, the feeling of separation suddenly arises, and I can't help but shed tears.

My lovely people, now this parting appears before our eyes again, with nothing to rely on except a full moon, standing alone in the sky. Even this moon was with us when we were together. It's different. Look at this desolate clear light shining on my blue hair, how can it not make me cry. Appreciation 2

This poem exaggerates the feeling of lovesickness through the environment and psychological description before and during parting. In the first film, the ambivalence of drinking and feeling uneasy before leaving was expressed. The second film goes a step further and expresses the intense emotional changes of being unable to control oneself in the face of separation by writing about the strong emotion of suddenly feeling that things have changed and people have changed when they are about to leave.

The emotional expression in the previous film is still within the range of self-control. At most, it is full of sorrow and "can't bear to drink anymore". If I really can't bear the pain in my heart, I can only "cry a few lines in front of the wind". Maybe my lover asks, She might even refrain from saying that she had sand blown into her eyes.

The emotion is obviously heightened by the second film. Seeing that it will be difficult to see the person she loves again, it is emotionally unbearable. Originally, things have changed and people have changed, which is heartbreaking. But she said that even things are not the same things anymore. The wheel in the sky has witnessed The full moon of love between you and me suddenly became cold and ruthless, which created a great inner sense of fear, loneliness, and emptiness.

The sentence "The flower slave drums are urging the flowers to bloom before they stop" is an allusion to Li Lian, a figure from the reign of Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty. He is the direct grandson of Emperor Ruizong of the Tang Dynasty and the eldest son of Emperor Li Xian of the Tang Dynasty clan. Because he is the eldest son of Emperor Rang, he was named the Prince of Ruyang County. His nickname is Hua Nu. He is a handsome man with a handsome face. He also has strong musical ability and is both talented and beautiful. He is also good at bows and drums, and is smart and agile. As we all know, Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty was also a very artistic emperor in history. He was an expert in music and dance. He had a versatile and beautiful man named Hua Nu beside him. Of course, Xuanzong liked him very much and taught him personally. As for music, it is said that Xuanzong personally taught him Jie Gu.

Appreciation

This word can be traced back to the Tang Dynasty. "Bodhisattvaman" is also known as "Midnight Song" and "A Cloud in Wushan". It is the name of the Tang Dynasty Jiaofang song. According to records, the Tang Dynasty During the reign of Emperor Xuanzong, the female barbarians paid tribute. They wore golden crowns in high buns and necklaces and quilts, so they were called the Bodhisattva Barbarians. The musicians composed the "Bodhisattva Barbarians Song". It doesn’t mean that Bodhisattva also loses his temper and behaves rudely.

During the reign of Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty, Li Jing, the king of Ruyang, had the nickname "Hua Nu". Nu is a nickname. Emperor Wu of the Song Dynasty Liu Yu's nickname was "Ji Nu", and Li Bai also called his son Mingyue Nu. Li Jingshan Jiegu, Jiegu is a kind of musical instrument, shaped like a lacquer bucket, with a gum attached at the bottom, and both ends of the drum are struck. This instrument is said to have come from the Huns.

Xuanzong was also good at Jiegu, so he loved Li Jingte. He once said: "Hua Nu has a bright appearance and fine skin. He is not a human being and will be relegated to the gods." (See "Jiegu". "Records") Also, on the first morning of February, Xuanzong saw that the scenery in the palace was bright and the willows and apricots were about to vomit, so he ordered Gao Lishi to take the jiegu and come to the Xuan Xuan to play the song "Spring Scenery". At the end of the song, the flowers were already blooming. Xuanzong said with a smile: "You don't call me the God of Heaven for this matter?"

The willful and indulgent people of the Tang Dynasty always have the color of closeness to heaven and earth, and have the wantonness of the Neolithic Age when they danced against the red sun, high mountains and jungle. Later, high-ranking officials often played drums for fun at banquets to promote drinking. However, later on, people rarely had that kind of wanton and fearless mood, and became more cautious. The more they wanted to preserve the good times, the easier it was to be sentimental, and their temperament and behavior became deliberately desolate and dejected.

The poem "Rong Ruo" was written from Li Yan, using the classic symbol of Jie drum to urge flowers. The flowers bloom and then fall, which is a hidden message that good times will not last forever. The scene of the banquet about to break up and farewell imminent expresses the melancholy of spring and farewell. The lower part inherits the scene and emotion from the upper part and adds a touch of color to it, further depicting the loneliness and desolation of the sky and the moon today. The last two sentences fall into the reality of this moment, writing about the infatuated longing under the moon and the unresolved sorrow and sadness. Creative background: In the middle and late Qing Dynasty, the poet's beloved wife Lu passed away. In order to commemorate and mourn his deceased wife, the poet wrote the song "Bodhisattva Man". Nalan Xingde (1655-1685), a Manchurian with the courtesy name Rongruo and Lengya Mountain native, was one of the most famous poets in the Qing Dynasty. His poem "Nalan Ci" enjoyed a high reputation in the Qing Dynasty and even the entire Chinese poetry circle, and also occupied a glorious place in the history of Chinese literature. He lived during the period of integration of Manchu and Han Dynasties, and the rise and fall of his aristocratic family was typically related to the state affairs of the dynasty. Although he serves the emperor, he longs for ordinary experiences.

The special living environment and background, coupled with his personal extraordinary talent, give his poetry creation a unique personality and distinctive artistic style. The "Magnolia Order·Ancient Judgment" that has been passed down to this day - "If life is only as it was when we first met, why is the autumn wind sad and painted on the fan? It is easy to change the heart of the old, but it is said that the heart of the old is easy to change." Full of artistic conception, it is one of his many representative works one.

Nalan Xingde: When I wake up from the West Tower after being drunk, I don’t remember. Spring dreams and autumn clouds make it easy to gather and disperse. It's half moon and I don't sleep much. The painting screen leisurely displays Wu Shancui. There are wine marks on clothes and words in poems. Every step of the way is always desolate. Red candle self-pity has no good plan. Ye Hankong sheds tears for others. ——Song Dynasty·Yan Jidao's "Die Lianhua·Drunk Farewell to the West Tower, Do You Wake Up"

Two Farewell Poems·Part One

Southern and Northern Dynasties: Fan Yun said goodbye and reunited in the cool weather with a thin quilt and small pillow. Feel the feeling of separation. After a few colder nights, I still fall asleep again after I wake up. After all, without sleep, a night is as long as a year.
