Song of Eternal Sorrow

Dynasty: Tang Dynasty

Author: Bai Juyi

Original:

china's Emperor, craving beauty that might shake an empire, was on the throne for many years, searching, never finding. Till a little child of the Yang clan, hardly even grown, bred in an inner chamber, with no one knowing her.

but with graces granted by heaven and not to be concealed, at last one day was chosen for the imperial household. If she but turned her head and smiled, there were cast a hundred spells, and the powder and paint of the Six Palaces faded into nothing.

it was early spring. They bathed her in the FlowerPure Pool, which warmed and smoothed the creamy-tinted crystal of her skin. And, because of her languor, a maid was lifting her, when first the Emperor noticed her and chose her for his bride.

the cloud of her hair, petal of her cheek, gold ripples of her crown when she moved, were sheltered on spring evenings by warm hibiscus curtains. But nights of spring were short and the sun arose too soon, and the Emperor, from that time forth, forsook his early hearings.

and lavished all his time on her with feasts and revelry, his mistress of the spring, his despot of the night. There were other ladies in his court, three thousand of rare beauty, but his favours to three thousand were concentered in one body.

The Golden House is dressed up to serve the night, and when tables were cleared in the Tower of Jade, she would loiter, slow with wine. Sisters and brothers are all in the country, and, because she so illumined and glorified her clan.

she brought to every father, every mother through the empire, happiness when a girl was born rather than a boy. ...High rose Li Palace, entering blue clouds, and far and wide the breezes carried magical notes.

of soft song and slow dance, of string and bamboo music, the Emperor's eyes could never gaze on her enough. Till war-drums, booming from Yuyang, shocked the whole earth, and broke the tunes of The Rainbow Skirt and the Feathered Coat.

the Forbidden City, the nine-tiered palace, loomed in the dust, from thousands of horses and chariots headed southwest. The imperial flag opened the way, now moving and now pausing, but thirty miles from the capital, beyond the western gate.

the men of the army stopped, not one of them would stir, till under their horses' hoofs they might trample those moth-eyebrows. Flowery hairpins fell to the ground, no one picked them up, and a green and white jade hair-tassel and a yellowgold hair-bird.

the Emperor could not save her, he could only cover his face, and later when he turned to look, the place of blood and tears. Was hidden in a yellow dust blown by a cold wind, at the cleft of the Dagger-Tower Trail they crisscrossed through a cloud-line.

under Emei Mountain. The last few came, flags and banners lost their colour in the fading sunlight. But as waters of Shu are always green and its mountains always blue, so changeless was His Majesty's love and deeper than the days.

he stared at the desolate moon from his temporary palace, he heard bell-notes in the evening rain, cutting at his breast. And when heaven and earth resumed their round and the dragon car faced home, the Emperor clung to the spot and would not turn away.

from the soil along the Mawei slope, under which was buried, that memory, that anguish. Where was her jade-white face?. Ruler and lords, when eyes would meet, wept upon their coats, as they rode, with loose rein, slowly eastward, back to the capital.

the pools, the gardens, the palace, all were just as before, the Lake Taiye hibiscus, the Weiyang Palace willows. But a petal was like her face and a willow-leaf her eyebrow, and what could he do but cry whenever he looked at them?.

peach-trees and plum-trees blossomed, in the winds of spring, lakka-foliage fell to the ground, after autumn rains. The Western and Southern Palaces were littered with late grasses, and the steps were mounded with red leaves that no one swept away. (Flowers bloom on a day: flowers bloom at night; Nannei Yizuo: Nanyuan)

Li Yuan disciple Bai Fuxin, and the eunuchs thin-eyebrowed in her Court of PepperTrees;. Over the throne flew fire-flies, while he brooded in the twilight., he would lengthen the lamp-wick to its end and still could never sleep..

bell and drum would slowly toll the dragging nighthours, and the River of Stars grow sharp in the sky, just before dawn. And the porcelain mandarin-ducks on the roof grow thick with morning frost, jade is cold, who is with * * *.

with the distance between life and death year after year, and yet no beloved spirit ever visited his dreams. At Lingqiong lived a Taoist priest who was a guest of heaven, able to summon spirits by his concentrated mind.

and people were so moved by the Emperor's constant brooding, that they besought the Taoist priest to see if he could find her. He opened his way in space and clove the ether like lightning, up to heaven, under the earth, looking everywhere.

above, he searched the Green Void, below, the Yellow Spring, but he failed, in either place, to find the one he looked for. And then he heard accounts of an enchanted isle at sea, the mountains are in nothingness.

with pavilions and fine towers in the five-coloured air, and of exquisite immortals moving to and fro. And of one among them-whom they called The Ever True, with a face of snow and flowers resembling hers he sought.

so he went to the West Hall's gate of gold and knocked at the jasper door, and asked a girl, called Morsel-of-Jade, to tell The Doubly- Perfect. And the lady, at news of an envoy from the Emperor of China, was startled out of dreams in her nine-flowered, canopy.

she pushed aside her pillow, dressed, shook away sleep, and opened the pearly shade and then the silver screen. Her cloudy hair-dress hung on one side because of her great haste, and her flower-cap was loose when she came along the terrace.

while a light wind filled her cloak and fluttered with her motion, as though she danced The Rainbow Skirt and the Feathered Coat. And the tear-drops drifting down her sad white face, were like a rain in spring on the blossom of the pear. (Lan Tong: column; Piao Piao Yi Zuo: Piao Mao)

but love glowed deep within her eyes when she bade him thank her liege, whose form and voice had been strange to her ever since their parting. Since happiness had ended at the Court of the Bright Sun, and moons and dawns had become long in Fairy-Mountain Palace.

but when she turned her face and looked down toward the earth, and tried to see the capital, there were only fog and dust. Show affection for the old, and, through his envoy, sent him back a shell box and gold hairpin.

but kept one branch of the hairpin and one side of the box, breaking the gold of the hairpin, breaking the shell of the box. "Our souls belong together," she said, "like this gold and this shell", somewhere, sometime, on earth or in heaven, we shall surely.

and she sent him, by his messenger, a sentence reminding him, of vows which had been known only to their two hearts. On the seventh day of the Seventh-month, in the Palace of Long Life, we told each other secretly in the quiet midnight world.

that we wished to fly in heaven, two birds with the wings of one, and to grow together on the earth, two branches of one tree.. Earth endures, heaven endures; some time both shall end, while this unending sorrow goes on and on for ever. 2. In Song of Eternal Sorrow, select two poems that are deeply felt for appreciation, and tell the reasons for moving

that we wished to fly in heaven, two birds with the wings of one, and to grow together on the earth, two branches of one tree.

earth endures, heaven endures; some time both shall end and while this unending sorrow goes on and on for ever.

The catharsis of "love" has gone beyond the emotional entanglements between emperors and concubines, but more contains the subjective ideal elements of poets, and has already gone beyond the scope of historical facts, showing the contradiction between subjective wishes and objective reality. The last sentence of "earth endures, heaven endures; some time both shall end, while this unending sorrow goes on and on for ever" is a sigh and cry of love, and it is a lament that love has been spread by fate and destroyed by political ethics. This hatred has gone beyond time and space and entered the infinite realm. In this way, the poet expressed the eternal love with "long hatred", that is, to point out the theme of the whole poem.

This poem also reminds me of a word written by Nalan Xingde in the Qing Dynasty: How can you be as lucky as Jin Yilang, and be more willing than the wings? I once promised to hold your hand and grow old with my son, but I left a lingering regret. Because of the constant contradiction and collision between subjective desire and objective reality, poetry vividly shows the psychology of the characters, and the story is even more moving. 3. a poem in the spring water, choose an angle and write a composition

Autumn is a door, which was quietly opened by Miss Qiu when people were not paying attention.

Miss Qiu is a magician sent by heaven. Every season, she will show people her magical power. In order to show her magic, she breathed a sigh of relief and changed all the colors of the earth: the fields turned golden, look! The golden ears of wheat are dancing with the wind, just like a golden ocean. The farmer's uncle wiped the sweat on his face and showed a happy smile. Ginkgo trees turn yellow, and the yellow leaves are like handfuls of small fans, which are helping us drive away the summer heat! Red is given to the maple tree, look! Red maple leaves are like bright five-pointed stars. How lovely is orange and red! It's for fruit trees. Oranges are covered with branches, like little golden suns. Apple blushes with joy, just like our smiling faces. These delicious fruits make our mouths water.

I really want to thank Miss Qiu. She has added so many rich colors to autumn, and I really want to keep her. Because as long as we keep her, we can keep this beautiful picture of autumn! As long as we keep her, we can keep the happy smiling face of the farmer's uncle. As long as we keep her, we can keep the happiness and satisfaction of these greedy cats.

magical autumn girl, can you stop going? 4. Choose a famous sentence from Du Fu's new officials to write a composition

far off in Fuzhou she is watching the moonlight, watching it alone from the window of her chamber.

for our boy and girl, poor little babes, are too young to know where the Capital is. See Tang Du Fu's Moonlit Night.

fu (fū) prefecture: it is located in fu county, Shaanxi province. Boudoir: A boudoir refers to a wife.

The main idea of these words is: The wife who is far away in Yanzhou must watch the moon alone in the boudoir tonight. Looking back at my inexperienced children, they still don't understand that their mother misses their father in Chang 'an when she looks at the moon.

During the An-Shi Rebellion, Du Fu was captured by the rebels and trapped in Chang 'an. He wrote this poem because he missed his wife in Zhangzhou on a moonlit night. Originally, Du Fu cherished the moon and missed his wife. On the contrary, he said that his wife was worried about her situation and "looked at the moon alone" and "remembered Chang 'an".

The whole poem gets rid of the scenery in front of it, and simply starts from the opposite side, and the poet's "looking at the moon in Chang 'an alone and remembering Zhangzhou" is naturally included. Naive children don't know how to share their worries for their mothers. Their "unresolved memories" just reflect the "memories" of their wives, and highlight the "independence" of "looking alone" and the "pity" of their children.

With unique ideas and contrasting techniques, the poet implicitly expressed his deep thoughts and considerate care for his wife, and became a masterpiece that has been told for generations. All the brothers were scattered, and no family could inquire about life and death.

See remembering my brothers on a moonlight night by Tang Du Fu for the famous quotations of the moon. The general idea of these two sentences is: although there are brothers, they are all separated, and they live far apart; Home is gone, life and death are difficult, where to ask.

In the Anshi Rebellion, Du Fu was wandering from place to place and had a hard time. ~ two sentences are not only the poet's own experience and feelings, but also a typical summary of people's common experiences in the Anshi Rebellion. They are written in a sad and sad way and easily arouse people's sympathy and * * *.

It can be used to show the concern and yearning for family members in war and turmoil. Dew changes to frost since tonight, how much brighter the moonlight is at home!

remembering my brothers on a moonlight night by Tang Du Fu. These two sentences are to the effect that; The whiteness of dew begins from the White Dew Festival tonight, and the brightest moon in the world should be the moon in my hometown.

During the Anshi Rebellion, Du Fu took his family to Qin Zhou to miss his younger brother and relatives in his hometown, and wrote this poem. Originally, there was no night and no white, and where was the month unknown? It makes no difference that the world is * * * one.

However, because the poet is stranded in a foreign land, and he has the deepest feelings about the season and climate, he says that "dew makes the night white"; Because of wandering loneliness and gloomy mood, looking up at the moon in other places always feels not as bright as the moon in my hometown, so I say "how much brighter the moonlight is at home!". Obviously, this is the subjective emotion of the poet in the objective scenery. Because of the psychological illusion and emotional paranoia, the poet draws a conclusion that is not scientific but in line with artistic truth.

People who are far away from their hometown will think of the famous sentence of "how much brighter the moonlight is at home!" whenever they are homesick, which will arouse the heart rhythm and approve its correctness. This famous sentence is often quoted when writing homesickness and praising hometown.

four more mountains spit on the moon, and the water is bright at night. Tang Du Fu's Moon.

In the dead of night, the moon rises from the top of the mountain, and the water reflected by the moonlight illuminates the balcony by the water. The moonless night is dark. However, on the night of the fourth watch, the mountains spit out the moon, and suddenly the earth is bright, the running water is illuminated, and the balcony beside the water is more clearly reflected in the moonlight.

The use of personification and causative syntax in the poem endows natural scenery with human consciousness and interest, and is full of dynamic beauty. The moonlight of the last night is soft, but in the beautiful silence, there is a faint sadness and loneliness.

We should pay attention to learning the poet's expressive techniques and improve our landscape writing skills. Autumn in the sky is near, and the moon shadow on earth is clear.

the moon by Tang du fu. When autumn approaches in the world, the moonlight is particularly clear on earth.

Autumn is crisp, so the autumn moon is the brightest. Throughout the ages, people especially appreciate the autumn moon, which is the reason. The poet imagines that there are spring, summer, autumn and winter in heaven, just like on earth, which is amazing.

These two sentences are suitable for describing the clear moon scene in late summer and early autumn. In the middle of the moon, there should be more clear light.

A good sentence on the moon is an excerpt from One Hundred and Fifty Days and Nights to the Moon by Tang Du Fu. However, Zhu Zhuo: cut it.

laurel: refers to the legendary laurel tree in the middle of the month. If the laurel tree in the moon is cut off, then she should shed more innocent light on the world.

The light of the moon illuminates the long night, and the laurel trees in the middle of the month cause many beautiful reverie. However, the poet has a strange idea from another angle that there is a shadow of osmanthus trees on the moon, which is a fly in the ointment after all.

This is an exclamation and a novel idea, which shows the author's diligent pursuit of beautiful things. It contradicts all opinions and has certain philosophical significance.

The words in Xin Qiji's Tai Chang Yin: "It is more humane and clearer to get rid of the dancing of Guangxi", that is, it is translated from Du Fu's poems. These two poems can be extended to show that some things are beautiful, but there are some unsatisfactory shortcomings. If they are improved, they will be even better.

when the sky is high and the clouds are gone, Jiang Jiong comes late. Tang Du Fu's "Viewing a Bridge as a Moonlight Night Boat" is also presented as Li Sima.

jiǒng: Far, here is a broad solution. There is no trace of a cloud in the high sky, and the moon on the broad river is late.

The two poems are about autumn night scenes, but they do not describe them in a straightforward way, but make the poems have a causal relationship: because the clouds are gone, people feel that the sky is particularly high; Due to the late arrival of Jiang Yue, people feel that the river is particularly spacious in the desert. "The sky is high" and "Jiang Jiong" also show the scene of crisp autumn.

these make the poem not dull, but tortuous and chewy. The two sentences are about writing scenery, but they are not limited to writing scenery. In the "late arrival of the month", there is also an ardent feeling of waiting for the moon.

When writing a poem, you should avoid being straightforward and dull. As for the specific writing, it is changeable and can't be rigidly adhered to. Write autumn night waiting for the moon for reference.

short peach blossoms are near the water bank, and catkins are gently used to point people's clothes. Tang Du Fu's Three Poems on December 1st (Ⅲ).

short: low. Point: jump, touch.

The main idea of these two sentences is that peach trees grow on the banks of the river, and peach blossoms and clear water set off each other; Catkin fluttered gently, and the clothes of pedestrians were littered with stars. This poem was written by Du Fu in Yun 'an on December 1st, the first year of Yongtai (AD 765).

what is written in the poem is to imagine the spring scenery. It can be used to describe the scene of late spring. 5. Choose an ancient poem to write a short composition of 336 words

I hope it will help you: Tang Yuanzhen's "From Thinking": "Once the sea was difficult for water, forever amber.

Take a lazy look back at the flowers, and you are half-qualified to cultivate and half-qualified. " The meaning of the first two sentences: people who have experienced the incomparably deep and wide sea will find it hard to attract him by the water elsewhere; Except for the clouds of Wushan, where the clouds are steaming, the clouds elsewhere are eclipsed.

In the original poem, the water of the sea and the clouds of Wushan are used to describe the depth and depth of love. After seeing the sea and Wushan, the water and clouds in other places are hard to look at. There is no other woman who can make me emotional except the woman the poet reads and loves. "It used to be difficult for the sea to touch water", but for me, it was difficult to read this poem.

It has written off people's deep-rooted love for life and death. After the sea, there is no water. What should we do? People can't just sit back and wait for death on the waterless coast.

maybe there are two possibilities. Either continue to immerse yourself in the sea of memory, salvage pearls in the past, salvage the sinking starlight and moonlight, until the sea of the past years gradually submerged itself.

Why not dig deep wells on the shore of survival and water the desert of survival with new water sources? Perhaps, when the well water reflects the reflection of the water drawer, it will remind him of those days and nights that were collected by the sea? In this way, the waters of life can continue. In memory, waves overlap with waves, and reflections overlap with reflections, which makes life complicated and dense.

the experience of love is like this, is it the same with other experiences in life? After reading a very touching book, you really don't want to read those frivolous books without soul. Climbing five mountains and enjoying the scenery, your heart is full of strange peaks and deep valleys. Do you want to see those commercial mountains that have been trampled by everyone's shoes and are not wild and aura? ..... Love, reading, Range Rover, communication ... will have similar experiences.

The sea is too vast, too deep and too bitter; The sea is almost infinite ",which is the extreme condition of life and emotion. Therefore, most people have never been to the sea, let alone reached the depths of the sea.

At most, I just imagined the sea from a distance: it may be very big and deep. Or stand by the sea and take a look at the sea: it is really big and deep. Or pick up a few shells on the beach at low tide.

I have never really experienced the sea, so I am not picky about water: salt water is water, fresh water is water, deep water is water, shallow water is water, clear water is water, and turbid water is water. 6. The story described in the poem "The Song of Eternal Sorrow"

Hmm.
