Poetry of boating Anren

Zhou Du An Ren is a seven-character quatrain written by Yang Wanli, a poet in the Southern Song Dynasty.

Literal meaning of this poem: On a fishing boat, there are two children. They put away their bamboo poles, stopped their oars and sat on the boat. No wonder they open umbrellas when it doesn't rain. It turned out that they didn't want to shelter from the rain, but wanted to use the umbrella as a sail to let the boat go forward.

The whole poem is as follows: A fishing boat with two children on board. No wonder it didn't rain. They opened the umbrella. They didn't want to protect the rain, but wanted to use the umbrella as a sail to let the boat go forward.

Appreciate:

"A fishing boat and two children are on board." This is what the poet saw. The reason why these two children caught the poet's attention is that although they were sitting in the boat, they didn't row a boat. It's strange that the bamboo pole for rowing is put away and the paddle is parked there. It can be seen that the poet's mood at this time is leisurely and cheerful, so he noticed what the two children did.

"It's strange to take an umbrella when it doesn't rain, not to cover your head but to make wind." Here, the story of two children playing umbrellas seen by the poet is omitted, and the doubts in the poet's heart are omitted, and the joy of solving doubts is directly written. The solution to the question may be that the poet saw the abnormal behavior of the child and began to observe and think more carefully. As a result, he suddenly realized that the two children were holding umbrellas even when it didn't rain, but waving the handle of the umbrella to let the wind blow the boat forward. You can also ask two children directly, and the children will tell him the reason. In any case, knowing the reason, the poet must be unintentional, for the sake of children's intelligence and their naivety.
