On Zhang's Autumn in Country-specific Mountains

Tang Meng Hao ran

On the North Peak among the white clouds, you found your quiet seclusion. Now, when I climb this mountain to see you, my heart flies high with the geese.

If the weather is not so refreshing this autumn, the quiet evening may seem a bit sad. I watched the river bank and rested on the beach with the villagers who came home until the ferry came back.

There are trees like a row of grass on the horizon, and islands like the moon by the river. I hope you will come to see me and get drunk on the Double Ninth Festival with a basket of wine.

3. The poem "Flowers Send Acacia" is full of beautiful flowers, bright and dazzling. As a sister flower of roses, roses have symbolized the love between men and women since ancient times in China. Ji Xu's poem "Jin Ping Mei" in Song Dynasty said: "Who is the spring breeze? When it's warm, it's still fragrant with lilies. Just cover it and use jade as a bed. The wind blows Wen Jun's residence exhibition, and the Song Yu wall is also laid under the moon; So I can plant in Xiejiachi and cover Yuanyang in the depths of the green waves. " This poem is closely related to the alias "brocade quilt pile" of the rose, and the meaning of love is obvious.

Peony Peony is rich and charming, graceful and as beautiful as peony, so it is called "grass peony" and has the reputation of "flower phase". It is recorded in The Book of Songs Zheng Feng that "only scholars and women tease each other, and peony is added". As early as the Zhou Dynasty, when men and women were in contact, peony was given to each other as a sentimental thing. In addition, when the ancients left, they often sent peonies to show their farewell.

"Lotus" is full of flowers, elegant and pure. The homonym of lotus is "love" or "pity", and the homonym of lotus root is "Lian", especially the love between ice and land. Born in the same lotus festival, lotus flowers are in the same place and lotus seeds are in the same room, indicating the love and loyalty of husband and wife. Poems such as "holding flowers and cherishing each other, folding lotus roots and loving silk" and "Fog reveals hibiscus, lotus (cherish) is unclear". Another example is Chang Lun's "Lotus Picking Song", and the flowers are overflowing. Being close to others, smiling and hitting Yuanyang "all reveal deep affection in tactfully implicit words, which makes people bang."

In The Book of Songs, the phrase "Peach flies away and burns its splendor" describes the beauty of a girl with the beauty of peach blossoms. According to legend, during the Spring and Autumn Period, Mrs. Xi, who was brought into the palace, was silent all day. Later generations built a temple and honored her as Lady Peach Blossom. Liu Changqing, a poet in the Tang Dynasty, once wrote "Loneliness should last for a thousand years, and peach blossoms are like branches" to praise her singleness in love. "Last year today, in front of this door, peach blossoms set each other off. People don't know where to go, but peach blossoms still smile in the spring breeze. " The love story contained in this well-known Tang poem has long been known. In the drama Peach Blossom Fan by Confucius in Qing Dynasty, the legendary story of love turning into blood and blood turning into flowers is even more touching and regrettable.

4. Acacia fish poems and ancient fish poems

"Green bamboo shoots greet the boat, and red fish come for nothing."

"Shu wine is invincible, and the river fish is beautiful."

"Fresh crucian carp eats shredded pork and celery soup".

Scorpions fly gold plates with double knives from left to right. The snow is high and the bald tail in Xuzhou is insufficient. Recalling that the fork head of Hanyin fled far away, the fish was fat and beautiful, which was both enjoyable and desolate ("Song of Watching Fishing")

"At midnight, under the moonlight, beautiful women cook fish heads", Zheng Banqiao.

"Yangzhou fresh bamboo shoots are cheaper than shad, and the spring breeze is rotten in early March."

"You can only eat bass, and the official is also a fish."

"Before the egrets fly to Mount Cisai, the peach blossoms flow with mandarin fish fat" Zhang's "Fishing Songs"

2. "Acacia"

Poet: Quan Deyu Dynasty: Tang Dynasty Style: Yuefu

Don't miss Pan Lang and lean shyly in the drawing room. Sometimes the ruler is cut and nothing is left. Magpies talk to the makeup mirror, and flowers fly to embroider the bed. Acacia don't understand. The moon shines on the empty house.

3. Gum Arabic

Poet: Bai Yuchan Dynasty: Song School: Five Ancient Dynasties

The maple forest is bleak, and the rock spring whimpers. On this moonlit night, pluck the strings of acacia. The voice is still like yesterday, and love is empty and self-pitying. The wind blows the cold, and the night dew flies. Don't you miss me, sleeping with the lonely phoenix? Life is a guest, but Hu is not dead. Make me dry up, tears like a trickle.

4. Acacia leads to Huanggang.

Poet: He Zhu Times: Song Style: Ci

I've been looking forward to seeing my guests off all day. Spring breeze ancestral home. South Cheng Mo. Don't regret. The frequency of separation is white. Dynamic tube color. Rush color dynamic tube color. Where to throw the saddle? The longevity moon and acacia are thousands of miles apart. Dreams are close at hand. Diligent books, rulers and dreams are close at hand. Diligent ruler

5. Three-year farewell

Poet: Bai Juyi Dynasty: Tang Dynasty Style: Seven Wonders

It's been three years since I've seen you for a long time, and we're looking at each other. Look at the bright moon when you are heartbroken, and don't come back for 36 rounds.

6. Xianghege Cijiangnan Lane

Poet: Wang Bo Dynasty: Tang Dynasty Style: Yuefu

Jiangnan lane, Wushan dream, rain clouds send each other several times. In the spring, the Jade Boy Fairy didn't have time to see it. Purple dew cigarettes are hard to hold, and the breeze and bright moon are far from acacia. Acacia is far away, and the grass is green, for listening to phoenix songs.

7. "acacia"

Poet: Dai Shulun Dynasty: Tang Dynasty Style: Yuefu

High-rise buildings meet the bright moon, and the heartbroken fairy lang is separated by one year. Zi Xiao Xiao is silent, sitting alone in the Yao window. Shen Yan, a fish, traveled around the world and began to believe in the separation of human beings. Hate the gums full of jade, hate the golden hairpin and phoenix stocks. The well is deep and the pulley is short, so the day of homesickness should be slowed down. Reconnect the knife to water and water, and constantly swing the blade to cut the feelings.

8. "Two random questions"

Poet: Du Mu Dynasty: Tang Dynasty Style: Five Laws

I walk on Wan Li Road, and my clothes are full of dust. Tears hanging late at night, short pavilion Philip Burkart people. Cangjiang river has not stopped, what is the dream of blackwater? The bright moon is light, but it wants to catch red scales. Hate Qiu Lai, I don't know why. It's late at night, but it's too late at dawn. The letter has gone with Hiro and belongs to Yan. Only when you see the bright moon can you think for thousands of miles.

Hua Lian Hu Meiniang

Who loves the epiphyllum last night?

My heart is gone, and the lingering fragrance lingers in my arms.

The wind buries the red autumn rain, and the tears are wet and cold.

My thin edge failed to smile.

A wisp of resentment, loneliness and bitterness ends in the night.

Acacia birds are easy to embroider, but concentric bridges are difficult to cross.

Yijianmei Xu Shilin

Du Yu cries blood, and the frost leaves are red.

Sorrow leaves the string and the cold wind blows.

Fang Yi Tomb of Kyoto Royal Garden.

The secluded pool is perishable, and this hatred is endless.

Who can solve the loneliness of lovesickness?

Two lines of clear tears, a broken dream.

Autumn is full of bamboo and weeping hibiscus.

Catkin has silk, but no fragrance.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Tang Duoling homesickness

The rain drunk parrot island, the wind danced the Yellow Crane Tower, and the dream returned to the old place, so the country was soft.

There was a tear on the piano, and an old saying came to mind.

Homesickness has nowhere to send, and acacia is like water, which is difficult to cut when it is tender.

How many autumn, winter, spring and summer, looking forward to the return period, enduring the gaze.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Fourth army

I am lazy to dress up in the morning and stay in bed at night.

I don't feel that winter is coming again, and I have no mind to manage the new window.

I know where I am, but I remember where you are.

After a brief encounter, lovesickness is longer than a dream.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Fourth army

I was wearing only a thin coat, but I hung up on you.

Acacia in the wind, tears in the rain.

Spring depends on wild goose feet and red beans.

Don't forget that there is a cloud in the poem, this thing is the most appropriate.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Sauvignon Blanc thinks of you.

The wind last night, the wind tonight,

Full of love and farewell. When shall we meet again?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Jian yi mei si jun

You went to the wild goose and returned to another autumn.

At the beginning of Qixi, the frost moon is like a hook.

The night is cold and the shadows are heavy.

Xinghe magpie bridge, I want to rest now.

I hate sadness when I am alone on the boat.

There is no definite return date, and I am homesick.

I wish I had wings and spread my wings,

Before the sunset ends, you have already set your eyes.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

amateur

Falling flowers fly, autumn can't be cold;

The geese have gone, and the gathering and dispersion are impermanent.

The encounter at that glance is destined to be unforgettable for life;

For an instant, forever.

Prosperity is a dream;

The old saying is the most heartbreaking.

Suddenly looking back, bleak and stormy;

Who knows, the knot is in ruins.

Rolling the world of mortals, love and hate a few hesitations;

Since ancient times, lovers have always been hurt mercilessly.

Forget the words in your heart, leaving only a thousand lines of acacia tears;

When the string is broken, the pain is hidden.

Rolling the world of mortals, love and hate a few hesitations;

Since ancient times, lovers have always been hurt mercilessly.

Forget the words in your heart, leaving only a thousand lines of acacia tears;

Lonely place, leaning against the west window.

Pruning plum-Li Qingzhao

Lotus root is fragrant, and jade is lingering in autumn.

Gently untie Luo Shang,

Alone in the blue boat.

Who sent the brocade book?

When the word goose came back,

The west building is full of moons.

Flowers bloom and fall, and flowing water gurgles.

A kind of acacia,

Two luxury.

I can't eliminate this situation,

Just frown,

But in my heart.

Now make a thousand wishes,

Sprinkle it in the long river.

I don't want to fall in love with you,

I want to be with you.

Red beans grow in southern China.

In spring, its slender tendrils are intertwined.

Yuan Jun collects more.

Memory is a sign.

7. The poem 1 describes sending lovesickness in spring. "Delighting in Rain on a Spring Night" Author: Du Fu Time: The Tang Dynasty knew the rainy season and when spring would happen.

Sneak into the night with the wind, moisten things silently. The wild path is dark, and the river is bright.

Look at the red and wet place, the flowers in Jinguancheng are heavy. Appreciation: the poem "Good rain knows the season, when spring comes."

The word "good" is affectionate and praises the spring rain. "Knowing the season" endows Spring Rain with human life and emotion. In my opinion, the spring rain is considerate and knows the season, and it floats around when people are in urgent need, prompting the opportunity.

What a good spring rain! The first couplet not only expresses the "occurrence" of the spring rain, but also implicitly conveys the author's anxious mood of eagerly looking forward to the arrival of the spring rain. Couplets are obviously the poet's auditory feelings.

The spring rain is coming. In the boundless night, it comes with the wind, quietly moistening everything, without any intention of pleasing, just seeking dedication. Listening to the rain, the author observed it carefully, and even the spring rain and silence were heard by the poet.

2. "Spring Hope" Author: Du Fu-nian: Although the country of Tang Dynasty is broken, the mountains and rivers will last forever, and everything is spring. Sad state, can not help but burst into tears, amazing birds, leaving sorrow and hate.

The war lasted for more than half a year, and letters from home were rare, with a hundred thousand gold. Twisting with melancholy, scratching my head and thinking, the more I scratch my white hair, I can hardly insert a hairpin.

Appreciation: the whole article revolves around the word "Wang", and the first four sentences are lyrical with scenery. The poet set off the ruin of the country by describing Chang 'an, which is lush and sparsely populated.

The first song "Although the country is divided, the mountains and rivers live forever" is shocking and has a sense of historical vicissitudes. The phrase "Where the petals have fallen like tears, and the lonely bird has sang mourning" personifies the flowers and birds, feeling that the country is divided and the national affairs are difficult, and the flowers and birds in Chang 'an are all shocked by tears.

The poet's cross-conversion of feelings and scenery implicitly conveys the poet's sigh, anxiety and anger from climbing to farsightedness, from far and near, from weak to strong. The country is in turmoil, the war has been going on for years, the people are in poverty, and Le Shu is impassable. At this time, it is particularly valuable to receive a letter from home.

The poet reflects from the side the great pain brought by the war to the people, and the urgent mood of people wanting to know whether their loved ones are safe during the turbulent period. At the same time, it also shows the poet's deep concern for the country through hard-won letters from home.

In the last two sentences, the poet's increasingly sparse white hair can't even be inserted into the hair clasp, and the poet's anxiety and indignation are deeply and widely expressed by action. The whole poem is full of scenes, deep feelings, implicit and concise, which fully embodies the poet's artistic style of "depression and frustration"

The whole poem expresses the poet's feelings of worrying about the country, hurting the time, feeling sorry for himself and missing his loved ones. 3. "Fu De Gu Farewell" Author: Bai Juyi era: Tang Man grass across the plain, with the four seasons come and go.

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. Appreciation: The proposition "Farewell to Ancient Grass" is quite interesting.

Ancient Grass seems ordinary, but it captures the vitality of Spring Grass. The first sentence of the poem, "the vast grass crosses the plain", closely follows the title "ancient grass" and describes the lush spring grass with the overlapping word "Li Li".

The second sentence "Come and go with the four seasons", and then write the law that weeds in the original world wither in autumn and flourish in spring, and the years are endless. There are great differences between Fade and Glory and Glory and Glory. The former is "spring grass" and the latter becomes autumn grass.

The ancient grass is characterized by tenacious vitality. You can't cut or hoe. As long as a little root is left, it will sprout again next year and soon spread to Yuanye. "endless grass on the grassland" is the banner of victory. No matter how fierce the fire is, it can't help the roots buried deep underground. No matter how mercilessly the fire burns, once the spring breeze turns into rain, there are green weeds everywhere, which vividly shows the tenacious vitality of weeds.

"They are tall again in the spring breeze", the language is simple and powerful, and the word "rebirth" has three points and ten meanings. If three or four sentences focus on "ancient grass" and focus on grass, then five or six sentences continue to write "ancient grass" but focus on "ancient grass" leads to the meaning of "farewell"

The words "invasion" and "connection" are used to follow "rebirth", showing a spreading trend, once again highlighting the image of the strong "weeds" fighting for survival. Although the ancient Taoist city was deserted, the growth of grass restored its youth.

The ancient scenery of spring is back, and Sandy in Cao Fang is so charming that Friends happened in this background. Such a scene makes the author melancholy and poetic. The lush grass adds to the sadness of the author's departure. It seems that every blade of grass is full of special feelings. The author ended with this meaningful poem.

At this point, the poem points out "Farewell", sets the theme, closes the whole article, and connects "Guyuan-Grass-Farewell" together. The composition of the whole poem is rigorous, the language is natural, smooth and neat, the scenery is lyrical and harmonious, and the artistic conception is muddy. It is a unique swan song.

4. "Acacia" Author: Grace Wai Wong Age: Tang When those red berries are in full bloom in spring, they will bloom in your southern branches? People who want to miss them collect more, and Mix red beans have attracted people's attention. Appreciation: this is a poem that sings about things and sends acacia.

One is called "Li Guinian from the River", which shows that there is no doubt that you are pregnant with friends as soon as possible. The sentence is inspired by things, and the language is simple but imaginative; Then, I sent a message with questions, which meaningfully entrusted my feelings; The third sentence implies cherishing friendship. On the surface, it seems nostalgic, but behind it, there is a deep weight of love. The last pun is not only to the point, but also to the feelings. It is beautiful and elegant.

The whole poem is elegant and smart, full of thoughts, unpretentious language and harmonious and feminine rhythm. It can be described as the best in quatrains! In the Tang Dynasty, many well-known quatrains were widely circulated by musicians.

Wang Wei's Acacia is one of the lyrics that Liyuan disciples love to sing. It is said that after the Tianbao Uprising, the famous singer Li Guinian lived in the south of the Yangtze River and often sang this song for people. All the listeners were moved.

Red beans are produced in the south. They are strong, bright red and round, as crystal clear as coral. Southerners often use them as decorations. Legend has it that there was a woman in ancient times, because her husband died by the side and cried under the tree and turned into red beans, so people called her "Xiangsisi".

It is often used to describe lovesickness in Tang poetry. And "lovesickness" is not limited to the scope of love between men and women, but also includes friends. For example, Su Li's poem "It's hard for pedestrians to stay for a long time, and each has its own lovesickness language" is an example.

The title of this poem is "A Gift from the River to Li Guinian", which shows that this poem expresses the feelings of caring for friends. 5. "Spring Dawn" Author: Meng Haoran Age: Tang This spring morning I woke up briskly, and birds were singing everywhere.

How many flowers fall after a stormy night. Appreciation: Meng Haoran's poem "Spring Dawn" was written when the poet lived in seclusion in Lumen Mountain, and its artistic conception was very beautiful.

The poet seized the early spring.
