Send Yuan Er envoy Anxi (Tang) Wang Wei
Weicheng is light and dusty towards the rain, and the guest house is green and willow-colored.
Persuade the jun to drink a glass of wine, and go out of the west to yang guan without a reason.
Brief introduction of the works
This poem is a farewell poem written when Wang Wei sent his friend Yuan Er, who was ordered to send an envoy to the Anxi Capital Protectorate, and Wang Wei went to Weicheng to go to Weicheng to celebrate it, and wrote this poem, expressing a deep sense of regret for the farewell. Later, musicians composed music, named "Yangguan Triassettia", which was widely circulated and sang for a long time.
Main words:
Weicheng: In the northwest of present-day Xi'an City, Shaanxi Province, that is, the ancient city of Xianyang in the Qin Dynasty.
浥 (yì): Wetting.
Yangguan: In the southwest of present-day Dunhuang, Gansu Province, it is the main road to the northwest frontier since ancient times.
Poetry appreciation
The old friend is about to go to the frontier of the yellow sand of the land, I don't know when I can see you again, the feeling of farewell overflows my heart, a thousand words can not be said, the poet intercepted a scene and a sentence of parting, expressing a deep sense of attachment and strong care and blessing.
The first two sentences write the scene, create an atmosphere for the farewell, and set the scene back.
The first sentence writes about the rain, and a spring rain in Weicheng in the morning moistens the light dust; the second sentence writes about the newly grown young willows around the guest house.
"Light dust" and "guest house" hint at the long journey and parting, pointing out the time, place and environment of the farewell. And the new willow of spring is more symbolic of the reluctance of parting. By depicting the rainy weather around the guest house and the tender green spring willows, it creates a sentimental atmosphere and paves the way for the words to come.
Three or four sentences to write goodbye, only wrote a word of persuasion: please do another drink, after parting out of Yangguan, it will be difficult to meet old friends like us. The author dissolves all the care and concern for his friends into a glass of wine.
The sentence is short, only four sentences, but through these four poems, the author can bring the reader into a farewell scene, into a feeling of attachment to others.
The description of Chaoyu and Spring Willow in the first two sentences gives you a wealth of imagination: Weicheng is shrouded in a thick spring rain, and the guest house in Weicheng is saying goodbye, and the green willow outside the guest house witnesses the inseparable between friends. The spring color of the parting land is fresh, and after the parting, the west out of yangguan is the desolation of "spring wind is not moderate".
The exhortation of "one more cup" in the third and fourth sentences contains rich content: the parting wine drank one cup after another, the words of reluctance, said over and over again, how long the feast lasted, how many times the wine full of affection was drunk, and how many times the words of polite farewell were repeated, we can imagine, but the moment of parting will eventually come, drink another cup, this cup of wine makes the farewell feeling reach its peak. The blurted words of persuasion are the concentrated expression of a strong, deep parting feeling.
The poet, like a brilliant photographer, takes the most expressive shots.
Appreciation of famous sentences
To understand the wonder of this sentence, we must understand the connotation of "West Out of Yang Pass".
Yangguan is located at the west end of the Hexi Corridor, opposite yumen pass to the north. Since the Han Dynasty, it has been a passage from the interior to the western region. The Tang Dynasty was a powerful country, frequent exchanges between the interior and the western regions, and serving in the army or sending envoys to Yangguan was a desirable feat in people's minds. However, at that time, the west of Yangguan was still desolate and desolate, and there was a saying that "the spring wind was not moderate". Although the friend "West Out of Yang Pass" is a feat, he cannot avoid experiencing a long journey of thousands of miles and tasting the hardships and loneliness of walking alone and being poor. Therefore, "persuading the king to drink a glass of wine" is like a cup of emotional essence soaked in the poet's deep friendship, which contains the friendship of relying on others, and contains the deep consideration for the situation and mood of the long-distance traveler, and contains the cherished and sincere wishes for the road ahead.
Don't worry about the road ahead and don't know yourself, who in the world doesn't know the king? ——Gao Shi's "Don Dong Da (Second Song)"
In the Farewell Poems of the Tang Dynasty, there are many works that are poignant and lingering, low-wandering, and deeply moving, as well as a generous and tragic poem and a heroic style, which contains sincere friendship, strong faith and heroic feelings to paint another bold color for the willow color of Baqiao. These two sentences are from Gao Shi's "Don't Dong Da": Thousands of miles of yellow clouds and daylight, the north wind blows geese and snow. Don't worry about the road ahead and don't know yourself, who in the world doesn't know the king?
Gao Shi's "Bei Dong Da (Second Song)" was written in 747 AD (the sixth year of Tianbao), when Gao Shi was in Suiyang, and the object of farewell was the famous violinist Dong Tinglan. At this time, Gao Shi was also very unmotivated, wandering around, often in poverty (another farewell poem reads: "Liu Fei is fluttering and self-pitying, and has been away from Jingluo for more than ten years." The husband should be poor and unworthy, and today they have no money for alcohol. But in this farewell poem, Gao Shi spoke the parting gift with a cheerful mind and a heroic tone, which was passionate and generous and inspiring.
The first two sentences are also written scenes, but the scenery here is obviously different from the morning of spring in Weicheng. At dusk and dusk, and heavy snow, hunting in the north wind, only to see the cold clouds of geese. This scenery of the northern frontier of the sunset and yellow clouds and the vast wilderness give people a sense of tragedy and desolation.
But the last two sentences are a steep change in style, with a rhetorical question to comfort friends, this time you don't have to worry about not meeting a confidant, which in the world does not know you! Words of farewell, loud and powerful, full of confidence and strength in comfort, motivating friends to struggle and fight. Such words of encouragement come from confidants who are in the midst of depravity and wandering, and they are doubly heroic.
Compared with Wang Wei's "persuade the king to enter a glass of wine", Gao Shi's "Mo Worries about the Road Ahead ignorant of himself" is open-minded, sweeping away the old tone of lingering worries and grievances, majestic and heroic, comparable to Wang Bo's situation of "confidant in the sea, if the end of the world is next to each other".
