Li Bai's original poem "Into the Wine"

Entering Wine is a seven-character poem written by Li Bai, a great poet in the Tang Dynasty, imitating the theme of ancient Yuefu. The ideological content of this poem is very profound, and its artistic expression is very mature, which has the greatest influence among works of the same theme. The poet drank and sang loudly, and used wine to drown his sorrows, expressing his deep affection for life. The poems are mixed with feelings of disappointment and self-confidence, indignation and resistance, which embodies the poet's strong and unrestrained personality. The whole poem is full of emotion, and no matter what the mood is, it surges like a river, which is unstoppable, ups and downs and dramatic changes; Exaggeration is often used in techniques, and it is often decorated with huge numbers, which not only shows the poet's heroic and free-spirited feelings, but also makes the poem itself appear smooth and lyrical. In the structure, there are opening and closing and relaxation, which fully embodies the characteristics of Li Bai's seven-character song.

The original poem "Into the Wine"

Author Li Bai, Tang Dynasty,

Have you noticed how the water of the Yellow River flows out of heaven and into the ocean, never to return?

Have you noticed that the lovely hair in the bright mirror in the high room, although it is silky black in the morning, has turned into snow at night.

Oh, let a man with spirit take risks where he wants to go, and never point his golden cup at the moon empty! .

Since God has given talents, let them be used! As for the money, although it is scattered, it will get together again.

Cook a sheep, kill a cow, sharpen your appetite, and let me, 300 bowls, take a big drink! .

Master Cen, Dan Qiusheng can drink and drink endlessly.

Let me sing you a song! Please listen to me.

What are bells and drums, delicacies and treasures? Let me get drunk forever and never be rational! .

Ancient sober people and sages were forgotten, and only great drinkers can be immortalized.

Chen bought a barrel of wine with 10 thousand gold coins at a banquet in the temple, and everyone laughed and said one-liners

Why do you say, my master, your money is gone? , to buy wine, we drink together! .

Five flower horses, Hsi Chin, give them to the boy in exchange for good wine. Whatever you want, sell eternal sorrow.

translate

Didn't you see the Yellow River falling from the sky and the waves rolling straight to the East China Sea and never coming back?

Can't you see that your elderly parents are sighing in the mirror about their aging white hair? When they were young, their hair was all white.

When you are proud of your life, you should indulge in joy and don't let this golden cup be empty for the bright moon.

Everyone's birth must have its own value and significance. With a stroke of the pen, gold can still be recovered.

Let's have fun cooking sheep and slaughtering cattle. It's not too much to drink three hundred cups at a time!

Master Cen, Dan Qiusheng, drink quickly. Raise your glass and don't stop.

Let me sing a song for you. Please listen to me carefully: What is the value of the luxurious life of eating delicacies all day? I just want to stay drunk.

Since ancient times, sages have been deserted and lonely, and only those who can drink can leave a good reputation.

Do you know the optimistic story of Cao Zhi's banquet in Wang Chen? You also drank heavily when you were fighting for wine, which made the host and guest have a good time.

Master, why do you say I don't have much money? Just buy wine and we'll drink it together.

Those precious beautiful horses and expensive thousand gold foxes and furs, please change all the waiters into wine, let's eliminate this endless sorrow together!

Make an appreciative comment

"Into the Wine" is not long, but it is full of five tones and extraordinary weather. It is full of pen and ink, sad and angry, wild and uninhibited, and its language is extremely bold and calm. The whole article has the momentum and strength to shake the past and the present, which is undoubtedly related to exaggeration. For example, huge numbers are repeatedly used in the poem ("1000 dollars", "300 cups", "1000 cups of wine", "1000 dollars of gold" and "eternal sorrow", etc.). ) to express the hero's poetry. At the same time, it will not give people the feeling of emptiness and exaggeration. Its root lies in its rich and profound inner feelings, and the potential wine words are as follows. In addition, the whole article is full of ups and downs, and poetry suddenly unfolds, from sadness to joy, to madness, to anger, to madness, and finally to the song of everlasting regret, echoing the beginning of the article, such as the river running, magnificent, full of twists and turns, which can carry the tripod. His songs are full of pregnant writing, ingenious and wonderful, which is neither easy to learn nor easy to achieve. The whole article is mainly composed of seven words, but it is interrupted by three or five words, which is extremely unbalanced and complicated; Poetry is mainly prose, but it is also interspersed with short sentences (such as "Cenfuzi, Dan Qiusheng", "Five Flowers Horse, Golden Ball Ball"), with changeable rhythm, unrestrained and difficult to flow. "Tang Poetry" says that "those who read Li's poems are far away from the gods in large and medium-sized schools, and they are immortal." This article is enough.

Creation background

There are different opinions about the writing time of this poem. According to Guan's New Notes on Li Bai's Poems, this poem was written in the autumn of the 22nd year of Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty (734). Li Bai was invited to Yuan Danqiu's seclusion in Songshan, and Cen Can was there. The three of them had a drinking party. Yu Xianhao's Li Baiji believes that this poem was written around the 24th year of Kaiyuan (736). Huang Xixuan's Chronicle of Li Taibai was written in the 11th year of Tianbao (752). It is generally believed that this is what Li Bai did when he wandered between Liang and Song Dynasties and met his friends Cenxun and Yuan Danqiu after he left Beijing in Tianbao years.

In the early years of Tianbao of Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty, Li Bai was recommended by Taoist wujun, and was accepted by Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty, ordering Li Bai to worship the Hanlin. Soon, due to the slander of powerful people, Li Bai was expelled from Beijing in Tianbao three years (744), and Tang Xuanzong paid back the money. Since then, Li Bai has been wandering around the Jianghuai area, and his thoughts are extremely annoyed, and he has once again embarked on a long journey of traveling around the mountains and rivers of the motherland. When Li Bai wrote this poem, it was eight years since Li Bai was "given gold and returned" by Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty. During this period, Li Bai and his friend Cen Xun (Master Cen) were invited to Angelababy, another friend of Songshan, Yuan Danqiu. The three of them climbed the mountain, held a banquet and sang songs through wine. The poet was politically excluded and frustrated, and his ideal could not be realized. They often drown their sorrows in wine. The joy of life is nothing more than making friends at cocktail parties, and the author is at the moment of "using the talents of the world without meeting each other", so he is full of untimely drinking to drown his sorrows.
