Taohua An Ge Yin Mingtang
Taohuawu Taohua Temple, Taohuaguan Taohuaxian.
Peach Fairy cultivates peach trees, picks them and drinks them.
When you wake up, you just sit in front of the flowers, and when you are drunk, you come to sleep under the flowers.
Half drunk and half awake day after day, flowers bloom year after year.
I hope I die of old age. I don't want to bow my head in front of horses and chariots.
Car dust and clues show things, and wine is hidden in snuff.
If the revealer is compared to a hermit, one is underground and the other is in heaven.
If we compare Hua San to horses and chariots, I will have no leisure.
The world laughs at me for being crazy, and I laugh at others for not being able to see through it.
There are no graves of Hao Jie in Wuling, no flowers, no wine, and no hoes to plow the fields.
There is a peach temple in Taohuawu, and there is a peach fairy below.
Peach Fairy planted peach trees and broke off peach branches to pay for drinks.
When you wake up, you just sit in front of the peach blossom. Sleep under the peach blossom when you are drunk.
Next to the peach blossom day after day, I was drunk and awake year after year.
I just want to spend my whole life enjoying flowers and drinking, and I don't want to bow down in front of luxurious chariots and horses.
Running around by horse is the pleasure of the rich, while those who have no money look for wine, snuff.
If you compare wealth with poverty, it's a world of difference.
If the life of the poor is compared to the life of horses and chariots, what they get is the pain of running around, and what I get is leisurely happiness.
Everyone laughs at me for being crazy, and I laugh at them for being superficial.
I still remember that there were no flowers and no wine in front of the tomb of the heroes of the Five Tombs, and now they have all been hoed into fields.
Tang Ginza, owner of Taohua Temple in March of Hongzhi Ugly Year.

Song of the Peach Blossom Temple is a seven-character ancient poem by Tang Yin, a writer in Ming Dynasty. In this poem, the poet pretends to be the Peach Blossom Fairy, and refers to two completely different lifestyles by "drinking from old age" and "bowing before riding a horse" respectively, which forms a sharp contrast between the rich and the poor, and shows his true heart in ordinary reality with vulgar negative side and cynical spirit. The whole poem has distinct levels and simple language, but it contains infinite artistic tension, giving people a steady stream of aesthetic enjoyment and strong sense of identity.
Appreciate the whole poem, the picture is gorgeous and elegant, the style is elegant and handsome, the melody returns to the air and dances in the snow, which is mellow and profound. Although my eyes are full of fragrant words such as flowers, peaches, wine and drunkenness, there is no vulgar meaning, but the brushwork is straight through the back of the paper, which makes people suddenly realize. This is the strength of Tang Yin's poetry painting, and this poem is Tang Yin's masterpiece.
The first four sentences of the poem are narratives, saying that he is a peach fairy who lives in seclusion in Taohuawu, Suzhou, and planting peach trees to sell peach blossoms and wine is a portrayal of his life. These four sentences deliberately highlight the image of "Peach Blossom" and use peach blossom as a metaphor for a hermit, vividly depicting the image of a hermit who is roaming in the forest, free and easy, loves life and is as happy as a fairy.
The last four sentences describe the poet's life with flowers as neighbors and wine as friends. No matter he was drunk, he never left the peach blossom, day after day, year after year, letting time flow, letting flowers bloom and fall, and not changing his original intention. This obsession with flowers and wine shows that he cherishes life extremely.
The following four sentences directly point out my desire for life: I don't want to follow the door of wealth, but I would rather die of old age. Although the rich enjoy traveling, the poor can become attached to drinking snuff. By comparison, I wrote two different kinds of life fun, the poor and the rich.
The last four sentences are discussion, which reveals the dialectical relationship between the rich and the poor by comparing their advantages and disadvantages.
The whole poem has distinct levels, simple and euphemistic language, and is almost a folk monologue. However, it is this kind of monologue that contains infinite artistic tension and gives people endless aesthetic enjoyment and strong sense of identity. It deserves to be the best in Tang Yin's poems. The two most prominent and impressive images in this poem are "flowers" and "wine". In ancient times, peach also had the meaning of exorcising ghosts and evil spirits. "Peach" is homophonic with "escape" because of its meaning of avoiding the world. In Tang Yin's poems, the image of "peach blossom" appears frequently.
