What this article mainly wants to tell us is that

This is the most popular chapter in Yan Shu's ci. Although this word contains the meaning of hurting spring and cherishing time, it is actually a feeling of expressing feelings. On the top of the word, the combination of ancient and modern, the superposition of time and space, focusing on thinking about the past; The next film skillfully borrows the scenery in front of us and focuses on hurting the present.

"A new song and a glass of wine, the weather was old last year." Write about the present situation of drinking and listening to songs. From the complex sentence patterns and light and smooth intonation, we can realize that the poet started with a relaxed and happy mood and a natural and unrestrained attitude when facing the present situation. It seems that the protagonist is addicted to feasting and chanting. The author listened and drank, which triggered the aftertaste of the similar realm experienced by "last year": it was also the same late spring weather as "this year", facing the same pavilions, the same songs and the same wine. However, it seems that under the surface of everything, we clearly feel some irreversible change, that is, the long-lost years and a series of personnel related to them. This sentence contains a sense of nostalgia with the same scenery and completely different personnel. In this sense of nostalgia, there is a deep, graceful and painful feeling. In this way, even if the author is eager, how can he not be slightly sad?

"When does the sun go down?" Sunset is a beautiful prospect. However, what the poet caused was nostalgia for the beautiful scenery, disappointment for the passage of time, and faint hope for the reappearance of beautiful things. This is a feeling of the moment, but this feeling is actually not limited to the current situation, but extends to the whole life, including not only emotional activities, but also some philosophical meditation. The sunset cannot be stopped, and we can only hope that it will reappear in the East, but the passage of time and the change of personnel will never happen again. A close look at the word "when will you come back" seems to reflect a subtle mentality of expecting, but returning home after knowing difficulties.

Xia gan still uses the brushwork of blending emotion with scenery to express his former intentions. "It has nothing to do with flowers, it seems to meet Yan." As a natural odd-even sentence, this sentence is clever and implicit, fluent and implicit, harmonious in sound and rhyme, profound in meaning and sad and touching. It shows the poet's ingenious thinking and deep affection by using function words to form neat antithesis, vivid and sigh, which is also the reason why this word is famous. But what is worth pondering is the meaning of this couplet. The fading of flowers, the disappearance of spring and the passage of time are irresistible natural laws. Although it is useless to regret lingering, they all say "helpless", which is inherited as "the sun sets"; However, in this late spring weather, what I feel is not only the helpless disappearance, but also a gratifying reappearance. Isn't the swallow who came to dance like an old acquaintance who built a nest here last year? This sentence should be "when will you come back". Falling flowers and the return of Yan are also eye sights, but once they are associated with "helplessness" and "deja vu", their connotations become very extensive and their artistic conception is very profound, which is a symbol of good things. The interweaving of regret and comfort contains a certain philosophy of life: all the good things that are bound to disappear can't stop them from disappearing, but at the same time, there are still good reappearances, and life will not become nothingness because of disappearance. It's just that this reappearance doesn't mean the reappearance of beautiful things intact, but "deja vu". What permeates the sentence is a melancholy touch of life mixed with nostalgia and melancholy, which seems to be both rushing and deep. Only in this way, the author of this couplet is not only used for this word, but also for the poem "Collation of Zhang Shimiao as a King". "Small garden incense trail wandering alone", that is to say, he paced up and down among the flowers alone, and his mood could not be calm. The feeling of hurting spring here is better than cherishing spring, with a touch of sadness and depression.

The language of the whole word is fluent, popular and fluent, beautiful and natural, with profound implications, inspiring and intriguing. The profound thinking on the life of the universe in Ci gives people philosophical enlightenment and artistic aesthetic enjoyment. The phenomenon of unintentional description in ci often contains philosophical meaning, which inspires people to think about the problems of cosmic life from a higher level. Ci involves such a profound thought that time is eternal and life is limited, but it is very implicit.
