Original poem: Written by Haruhi Nobutatsu
Drizzle and flowers cover the door during the day, and the people of Jielu are like deserted villages.
Jian Zhai was a guest for three springs, and Pei Shuzhishi smiled warmly.
The southern crossing is full of the New World Bureau, and the northern return is difficult to find the old nest marks.
Fang Shi has been mistaken by Dong Lang, where can he summon the ancient soul.
(Spring 1952.) ）
Historical Background:
In 1951, Chen Yinke continued to be a professor at Sun Yat-sen University, helping Xie Xi to bring his wife to Hong Kong. In 1952, Chen Yinke's "Preface to the Jinwen Sayings of Jiwei Jujin" written by Chen Yinke to Yang Shuda was forcibly deleted by the publishing house, and Huang Xuan served as its assistant teacher.
The political study movement ended at the end of 1950, and from 1950 to 1956 was a critical Hu Shi thought movement. On July 10, 1950, the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea began, and in October the Chinese Volunteer Army began its campaign in Korea, ending with the signing of the Korean Armistice Agreement in July 1953. The Tibetan Campaign was launched in January 1950 and ended in December 1951.
Appreciation:
The sentence "Drizzle remnants cover the door during the day" has no use, and is directly translated as drizzle mixed with falling residual flowers, and the door will also be covered during the day. This sentence is the author's description of spring in Guangzhou, and it is also the trigger point of his own feelings.
The "Jielu people's realm is like a deserted village" in the sentence "Jielu people's realm" comes from the Jin Dynasty Tao Yuanming's "Drinking" in the "Jielu in the human realm, and there is no traffic and horse noise", which refers to the house where you live or where you are located. The whole sentence literally translates to the house where he lives seems to be located in a lonely deserted village.
The "Jian Zhai" in the sentence "Jian Zhai as a guest of the three springs" cannot be interpreted as a simple fasting meal, but refers to the "Jian Zhai style" pioneered by the Northern Song Dynasty poet Chen Youyi, whose poetry creation process has become a boundary with Jing Kangzhi, and the poetry before Nandu is more leisurely and leisurely, and the southern crossing is sad and hurtful. "Three springs" does not refer to the three months of spring, but refers to the author's three springs from 1949 to Guangzhou and 1952. The full sentence is translated as the author spent three springs after arriving in Guangzhou like Chen Youyi. Here is a metaphor for his feelings of sadness when he is sad.
"Pei Shu knows the poem a smile wen" in the sentence "Pei Shu" refers to the stepwife of the famous Tang Dynasty poet Yuan Shu, Yuan Shu in the Hui Ji fu poem "The first removal of Zhejiang East, the wife has obstruction, because of the four rhymes Xiaozhi" "Hailou jade idle, mirror water Mandarin duck warm swimming together." Later, he was transferred to Wuchang and wrote a poem: "Married to a floating cloud son-in-law, the phase is immediately a family." Shu's poem "Reply to Weizhi" is not a sad fate, but a sorrow for close relatives." "A smile of warmth" comes from the Northern Song Dynasty Su Shi's "On the twentieth day of the first month with Pan Guo's second birth in the suburbs to find spring and remember that last year was the same day to the Queen City to compose poems and former rhymes", "Three cups of liquor in Jiangcheng, the old man smiled warmly." The whole sentence literally translates as Pei Shu knowing the poetry and welcoming Yuan Shu with a warm smile. Here it is a metaphor for himself to be as wandering as Yuan Shu, while Tang Yun, like Pei Shu, always uses a warm smile to take care of and support.
The "Nandu" in the sentence "Nandu is full of new world bureaus" generally refers to the Jianyan Nandu at the turn of the two Song Dynasties, and here it refers to the Nandu that he went from Beijing to Nanjing in December 1948, then to Shanghai, and to Guangzhou in January 1949. The whole sentence literally translates to the whole process of crossing south to Guangzhou in December 1949 and seeing the new situation change.
The "north return" in the sentence "It is difficult to find the old nest traces in the north" corresponds to the "south crossing" in the previous sentence, which refers to the opportunity or timing of one's return to the Qinghua Garden in Beiping. The whole sentence is literally translated as even if you return to Beiping Qinghua Garden, it is difficult to find traces of the old life.
"Fangshi has been mistaken by Donglang" in the sentence "Fangshi" is interpreted as a good day and a blossoming season, which is a metaphor for his own opportunities and can also be interpreted as the timing of his departure from the mainland in 1949. "Donglang" generally refers to winter, and here borrows the nickname of Han Wei of the Tang Dynasty to allude to himself. The literal translation of the whole sentence as the time of the blossom of the flower has been delayed by Han Wei. Here, it can be a metaphor for the opportunity to return to Beiping or leave the mainland, which has long been delayed by oneself.
The sentence "Where can recruit ancient souls" is connected with the previous sentence, and the verse in the Tang Dynasty Han Wei's "Spring End" is used: "People are easy to hate when they are idle, and it is difficult to recruit ancient souls in the ground". The whole sentence literally translates to where the soul of the ancients can be summoned, and implied where to store one's soul.
According to the environmental conditions of his own residence at Sun Yat-sen University in Guangzhou, the whole poem borrows the allusion of Chen Youyi's creation of the "Simplified Zhai Body" and Yuan Shu's step-wife Shufei's "Answer to Weizhi" to express his experience of southern crossing, and finally uses the poem "People are easy to hate when they are idle, and it is difficult to recruit ancient souls" in Han Wei's "Spring End" of the Tang Dynasty, containing his shame and regret that "the opportunity must not be lost, and the loss will not come again", and there is no place to store his soul.
This poem can be read together with the author's poem "Mengzi in Yunnan" written in June 1938. In addition, you can refer to historical data: on January 24, 1949, Yang Shuda rushed to Lingnan University to visit Chen Yinke and persuaded him to return to Peking Tsinghua University, while Hang Liwu, Fu Sinian, Yu Dawei and others persuaded him to leave the mainland, and Tang Yun advocated leaving the mainland, but Chen Yinke resolutely refused and persistently stayed in Guangzhou.
