"Chivalrous man" original:
The swordsmen of Zhao are dotted with tassels at will, and their swords are as bright as Shuang Shuang. The silver saddle and the white horse set each other off and galloped. Within ten steps, kill one person, cross a thousand miles, leave no one behind. After you finish, brush off your clothes, don't show any sound, and hide in the depths. Sometimes when I'm free, I walk through the county town, have a drink, and cross my sword over my knees. Eat meat with the sea and drink with Hou Ying in a big bowl. Three cups of spit, five mountains are light. After drinking, my eyes were dizzy and energetic, and the rainbow was swallowed up by the air. When Zhao was captured, the soldiers and civilians in the city were frightened.
translate
Zhao Yan's knight-errant wears a chivalrous Wu Ying on his head and a shiny machete from wuyue on his waist. A white horse on a silver saddle is flying in the street as fast as a meteor in the sky. Their martial arts are the best in the world. They can kill one person in ten steps, and take Wan Li Road. Nobody can stop them. After they achieved great things, they left, hiding their credit and reputation. Back in those days, Hou Ying and Zhu Hai made friends with Xinlingjun, took off their swords over their knees and had a drink.
Eat large pieces of meat with Zhu Hai and drink in a big bowl with Hou Ying. After drinking a few cups of hot wine, I made a generous promise that I would go through fire and water for my bosom friend, and a promise is more important than Mount Tai. After drinking, I was dizzy and hot, full of vigor and vitality, soaring into the sky and penetrating Changhong.
Zhu Hai saved Zhao for his faith and waved his golden vertebra, which shocked Handan, the capital of Zhao. The heroic deeds of the two brave men are still a beautiful story in Daliangcheng today, a thousand years later. Even if he dies, he is very chivalrous, but he deserves to be a hero all his life. Who, like Yang Xiong, can study Xuan Jing in the bookstore until he is old and do nothing all his life?
Overall appreciation
The predecessors said: borrow other people's stories and water your own base. The same is true of Li Bai's Chivalrous Man. This ancient style expresses the author's admiration for chivalrous people and his yearning for saving the world and making contributions to life.
The first eight sentences describe Zhao Di's chivalrous image and behavior. The poet Li Bai wrote with exaggerated pen and ink, starting with the costume of the ranger: "Hu Manying, Shuang. The silver saddle shines on the white horse like a meteor. " There are only 20 words, which seem to be things rather than people, but they show the momentum and style of chivalrous people incisively and vividly.
The popular costumes at that time, such as Shouhu, Ying, Wu Gou and White Horse, were not only typical, but also showed the magnanimity of their owners, making everything lifelike. It was a rough and heroic portrait of a chivalrous man, wearing a machete, riding a white horse and a silver pommel horse whip.
"Ten steps to kill one person, a thousand miles to stay" uses Zhuangzi's allusions to praise the sharpness of the sword, but the poem does not say what kind of person to kill, just the so-called chivalrous man, who always kills unjust people and avenges others. "Take care of your clothes, hide them deeply and get a name" is the moral integrity of a chivalrous man who solves people's difficulties without asking for anything in return. These words highly summarize the noble personality of chivalrous people, such as solving problems, not seeking fame and fortune, being loyal and paying attention to commitment.
