What kind of thoughts and feelings does Yan Shu of Huanxisha express?
"Huanxisha" by Yan Shu, a poet in the Song Dynasty, expresses the author's sadness that time is fleeting and irretrievable, and expresses the feeling of mourning the dying spring. The original text of the whole poem is as follows:
A new song and a glass of wine, the weather is the same as last year. When does the sun set?
There is no choice but the flowers fall away, and the familiar swallow returns. The fragrant path in the small garden wanders alone.
Interpretation in vernacular: Listening to a new song and drinking a glass of wine, the weather is still the same as last year. When will the setting sun come back? There was nothing I could do about the fallen flowers, but the returning swallow seemed familiar to me, wandering alone on the flower path in the small garden.
Extended information
Although this word has the meaning of regretting the spring, it is actually an expression of emotion. The upper part of the poem combines the present and the past, overlays time and space, and focuses on thinking about the past; the lower part cleverly borrows the foreground, focusing on the present. The language of the whole word is round and fluent, popular and clear, clear and natural, with profound meaning, enlightening and thought-provoking. The deep thoughts about the universe and life in the words give people philosophical enlightenment and beautiful artistic enjoyment.
Start with the sentence "A new song and a glass of wine, the weather last year is the same pavilion." Writing about the current situation of drinking and listening to songs, you can feel it from the intricate sentence patterns and brisk and fluent intonation. When the poet faced the current situation, he initially felt relaxed and joyful, with a free and easy attitude. It seemed that the protagonist was very obsessed with the joy of feasting, drinking and chanting.
The second sentence is written in the same late spring weather as "this year", and we are facing the same pavilions and pavilions as before, and the same clear songs and wine. This sentence contains a sense of nostalgia where the scenery remains the same but the people are completely different. This sense of nostalgia is mixed with a deep sadness for the present.
It arouses the author's lingering on beautiful scenery and love affairs, his confusion about the passage of time, and his faint hope for the recurrence of beautiful things. This is an instant feeling, but what is felt is actually not limited to the immediate situation, but extends to the entire life, which not only contains perceptual activities, but also contains some kind of philosophical contemplation.
The next film still conveys the foreshadowing with a writing style that blends emotions with the scenery. All the beautiful things that are bound to disappear cannot be prevented from disappearing, but while disappearing, there are still beautiful things reappearing, and life will not be affected by it. Disappear into nothingness. It's just that this kind of reappearance is not the same as the intact reappearance of beautiful things. It is just "deja vu".
The last sentence "The fragrant path in the small garden wanders alone" means that the author is walking back and forth among the flowers alone, unable to calm down. The feeling of regretting spring here is better than the feeling of cherishing spring. It contains a touch of sadness and the mood is low.
