4. Poems about filial piety in ancient times

The ancient poems about filial piety include "Confucius wrote filial piety, and filial piety belongs to virtue" and "but how much love has the inch-long grass won three spring rays".

(1) Confucius wrote the book of filial piety, which belongs to virtue. "Confucius wrote filial piety classics, and filial piety belongs to virtue" comes from "Song of Persuading Filial Piety" written by late Xu Xi. The poem says, "Confucius wrote filial piety, and filial piety belongs to virtue." Parents are hard, especially mothers. The baby is underage and pregnant with the mother's abdomen in October. Thirst for mother's blood, hunger for mother's meat. The child will be born, and the mother will be in prison. I am afraid that when I give birth, I will be a ghost. Once the children meet, the mother will be happy to continue. If love is a treasure, it will bow day and night. The mother lies on the wet mat and the child sleeps on the dry bedding. The child is sleeping soundly, but the mother dare not stretch. A dirty child is not too smelly, and a sick child is willing to redeem himself. Children should be able to walk and behave in a worried way. After three years of breastfeeding, sweat and blood consume thousands of hooves. Children should be able to eat and drink, save their mouths and postures. I have worked hard, and I am fifteen or sixteen. Wisdom is afraid of fatigue, and stupidity is worrying. Praise first if you are good, and educate if you are good. When the child has not returned, he leans against the door and then follows the candle. Children travel thousands of miles, and their hearts travel thousands of miles. Filial piety is a matter of course, and unfilial is not as good as poultry. " The poem describes the hardships paid by the mother from birth to adulthood. Therefore, "Confucius wrote filial piety, and filial piety belongs to virtue". The reason why Confucius wrote filial piety is because mothers have paid so much for their sons. It is a person's moral character to be filial to their mothers, and it is natural that unfilial people are worse than animals.

(2) but how much love has the inch-long grass won three Chunhui. "but how much love has the inch-long grass, rewarded with three spring splendors" comes from "Wandering Sons" written by Meng Jiao, a poet in the middle Tang Dynasty. The poem says, "the thread in the hands of a fond-hearted mother, makes clothes for the body of her wayward boy. Before departure, a needle was stitched together, afraid of the son came back late clothes damaged. But how much love has the inch-long grass, reported three Chunhui! " This poem is an ode to maternal love, which describes the ordinary scene of a loving mother sewing clothes when her mother and son are separated, but shows the poet's deep inner feelings for her mother. The poet focused his pen and ink on the loving mother. At this moment before he left, the mother's needle and thread were so fine that she was afraid that her son would be late, so she had to sew the clothes more firmly. The deep affection of loving mother is revealed in the most subtle place in daily life. The last two sentences of the poem, "but how much love has the inch-long grass, rewarded with three spring rays", are especially meaningful when asked by the poet. These two sentences are the sublimation of the first four sentences, the comparison of popular images, and the passionate affection of the child: how can the filial piety expressed by the little day lily flower be repaid for the maternal love as rich as the sunshine in spring?
