Appreciation of Song Ci "Nanxiangzi Crescent Moon as an Eyebrow"

"Nanxiangzi Crescent Moon Eyebrows" is selected from "Mountain Ci" written by Yan, a poet in the Northern Song Dynasty. In his ci, the author expressed his disappointment in the clear autumn season with tortuous structure and romantic feelings, from playing the flute under the moon to flying geese in the south, from thinking about pedestrians. The artistic conception of the whole poem is meaningful and tortuous, both beautiful and strong. The following is the appreciation of the song poem "Nanxiangzi Crescent Moon as an Eyebrow" that I brought to you. Welcome to reading.

Nanxiangzi

The crescent moon is like an eyebrow. Who teaches the flute to play under the moon? The building leans against the dusk clouds and sees the geese ③ at first sight, and flies southward ④. Everyone who walks on the road will return to the wild goose.

Eager to dream of a wedding. I don't know the Guanshan Road in my dream. But it should be too late to wait for a short book to break the enemy. When the jade pillow is cold.

To annotate ...

① "New Moon" sentence: It is paved by Niu Xiji's "New Moon is as curved as an eyebrow, but it has a sense of unity" and Tang Wangya's "Qiu Si gives people away", which refers to "pedestrians" and "short books" below. Like eyebrows, finger hooks bend like eyebrows.

② "flute" sentence: Borrow the background of "Who taught me to play the flute, relying on the spring breeze and bright moon" by Tang Du Mu.

(3) The sentence of "leaning against the building": Use the poem of "A few broken stars catch geese, and the flute leans against the building" in Tang Zhao's "Late Autumn in Chang 'an".

④ Flying south: Wild geese are migratory birds, which fly north after the vernal equinox every year and fly back to the south after the autumnal equinox.

After thinking about it, Shan Li quoted Han Feizi from Xiao Tong's Selected Works of the Southern Dynasties: "During the Six Kingdoms, Sharla Cheung and Gao Hui were friends, but we missed each other. In the dream, Min is easy to find, get lost halfway and come back, and so on. " Express love between men and women here.

8 books: letters. Break: dissolve. Hate: refers to leaving hate.

Pet-name ruby yes.

Vernacular translation

Another crescent moon, like an eyebrow, is long. Who does the flute play for under the moon? A person in a tall building, geese fly south at first sight at dusk, geese fly south, and people walking on the road are slow to return. I want to meet you in my dream. There is no road to doubt, but where can I find it? Just wait for the news to drift away from hatred, and the letter should be too late. Years are long, or when the jade pillow is cold.

Creation background

In the second year of Injong (1055), Yan Shu died, and Yan's heyday came to an abrupt end. He immediately felt the frost and snow sword in the real society. He, his sixth brother Youde, myna Zheng Chuan and his sisters are still young. Later, his second brother Cheng Yu's wife Zhang "raised him, raised him" and got married and started a family. Later, Yin En blessed Taichang Temple. In the seventh year of Zong Xining (1074), Yan Zhiyou was accused of being a refugee and opposed to Wang Anshi's political reform, and was handed over to Yushitai for punishment. Political opponents found Yan's song "With Zheng" from home, which read: "Little white and red are full of branches, and you can support yourself outside the stadium. Spring breeze is the guest of mankind. How long can it prosper? " If these people got the treasure, they arrested Yan in the name of satirizing the "New Deal" and opposing reform. Later, Yan was released. Although it was a close call, after this ordeal, the family's already empty financial resources were even meager, and the family situation of Yan's family went from bad to worse. This incident is also a great blow to Yan, who has changed from a full-time driver of literati to a down-and-out aristocrat.

Make an appreciative comment

This is a sentimental work to express one's thoughts.

The last movie starts with the situation and comes down to emotion. There is a dark contrast between "new moon" and "old friend", while "like eyebrow" means that it is not round, and the dark point deviates from the theme and worries about the brow. "You" is the exclamation of this scene, which shows that she has seen it many times. It is both long and faint bitterness. "Whose rain flute flies in the dark" (Tang Libai's "The Flute in Los Angeles on a Spring Night") was in a trance, and a flute sounded in my ear. On the surface, Who teaches explores the reasons for playing the flute under the moon. In fact, it is not the right time to complain, perhaps because it can't bear the happy mood of "making the moon bright with the spring breeze" (Chu Shi Pavilion by Ten Shepherd Boys) or because it can't bear "Who can't stand the homesickness" (Smelling the flute in Los Angeles on a Spring Night by Li Bai). Anyway, this word is a word. The phrase "Building One" describes what you see in a layered way, and a person leans against a tall building. First you see a sunset scene at the end of the world, then you see black spots in the boundless clouds, then you gradually expand into a recognizable "wild goose", and then you wake up and break the season in the direction that the wild geese follow after passing by. The word "flying south" is a unique sentence with a short voice, which seems to be unfinished. It seems to have written down and included the whole time transition when she watched the goose until there was no trace. The language of "rambling on the road" is extremely sad, not to mention the hope that pedestrians will return before the geese, and even "pedestrians will return after the geese" is an illusory hope. The film first draws ideas from what it sees, and then the ideas are interrupted by the sound; From what I heard to what I thought, my thoughts were immediately interrupted by the scenery; What you see will guide you to think. After several twists and turns, sadness gradually deepened and finally turned into deep sorrow.

The next movie starts with emotion and comes down to the situation. "Two hours of ritual trysts will last a long time" (Five Dynasties pay attention to "Huanxisha"). She dare not expect the "ceremony" in reality, but only hopes to fulfill her dream. "Desire" means that she changed her mind, settled for second best, and saved a little expectation of relief from her sadness, but even this little desire can't compensate. People say that "the sky is high and the land is wide; My sadness flies painfully between them. Can I dream over the portal and over the mountains? " (Li Bai's Sauvignon Blanc), but although she is not afraid of "Guanshan Road", why not "know" Guanshan Road! The reality of dreams is empty at both ends, which cannot be solved by "courtesy". We can only take a step back and wait for the ruler thousands of miles away. "Short" means to retreat and then retreat, not asking for endless love words, but asking for a few words to make a wish; She is eager to eliminate the "broken" shape and stay away from it from now on. As for it, it must be completely crushed so that it cannot be regenerated; Que is another hopeful expectation. However, it should be late, this short book must be Chi Mi's affirmative judgment, which seems to be based on her past experience. "Cold pillow is too cold to be loved" (although there is "Huan Xi Sha" (wild geese ring far, jade leaks clear)), by the time of "short book", it was already the time when autumn chill invaded the boudoir "cold jade pillow". At this point, there is no retreat. The word "or" is cold and endless, with endless thoughts and endless bitterness.

One of the characteristics of this word is that it contains a large number of predecessors' works, or poetic, or words, or images, or allusions, but it is not concentrated in one place, but scattered throughout the whole article, echoing each other, paving the way for each other, and being closely related without being similar. Its beauty lies in empty word's inspiration, which not only makes the predecessors happy, but also tightens up the whole article.

Evaluation by famous experts

Chen Ji: There is an elegant' interest' in the bitterness of this word. The style is quite close to Li Bai's poems, and the sentences are particularly sad.

Tang Guizhang: Yan's poem is short, but rich in images. Moonlight, flute, strict array, dreams, human feelings, book feelings, listening, watching and touching are all stained with bleak colors. The fusion of time and space, the sadness of the environment and the burning of lovesickness, the single tone and the complexity of ideas are interdependent and set each other off, forming a colorful artistic realm, which has stirred readers' hearts for a long time and aroused people's voices. At the same time, this word is not profound in language, but it has a strong lyrical meaning. No wonder Feng Xu of A Qing Dynasty said that he was "a sad man in ancient times". Its shallow language is full of flavor and its shallow language is good. It's really rare to ask two poets in Song Dynasty. "(quoted from Tang Guizhang's" On Tang and Song Ci ")

Wang Zhenliang: Xiao Yan is very good at writing dreams. This word is written about meeting in a dream, but I don't know the way back in my dream. It's amazing.

Wu Xiangzhou: The beauty of small words, such as five-character poems in Han and Wei Dynasties, is completely different. Between the color words you are looking for is the end of the story. But after worship and publicity, although the situation is relatively new and the body has lost weight, it is also a trend and can still be strong.

Brief introduction of the author

Yan (about 1030—— about 1 106) was a poet in the Northern Song Dynasty. Yuan Shu was born in Linchuan, Fuzhou (now Jiangxi) and was the seventh son of Yan Shu. He used to be the master of Taichang Temple. In the seventh year of Xining, Xia Zheng wrote a letter against Wang Anshi's political reform, and was put into prison by collective punishment. Yuan Feng spent five years in prison in Xutian Town, the battalion commander's office. "Years ago, I retired to the capital to make way for the first place" (Volume II of Bi Ji Man Zhi). In his later years, Yan Song, whose family was poor, was as famous as his father Yan Song and was called "Er Yan" by the world. The style of words is sentimental, clear, strong and beautiful.
