Golden Li shangyin
I want to know why my Jinse has fifty strings, and each string has a youthful interval.
Zhuangzi daydreaming, a saint, was bewitched by butterflies, and cuckoo crowed in the imperial spring.
Mermaids shed pearl-like tears on the moon-green sea, and the blue fields breathed their jade to the sun.
A moment that should last forever? Before I knew it, it had come and gone.
Jinse is the representative work of Li Shangyin, a poet in the Tang Dynasty. The title of the poem is Jinse, but it is not a poem about objects. It's just an untitled poem with the first word as the title according to the convention of ancient poetry. The poe t's life experience, unspeakable pain and bitter feelings are trapped in his chest, and his hair is like a poem. I'm afraid it's not an exaggeration to say that there is hatred in Jinse's poems about where you will go. The poet recall ed his youth, felt sad about his misfortune, and pinned his grief and indignation. The whole poem uses metaphors, makes good use of allusions, uses flowery words, is implicit and deep, has long feelings and is touching.
