The wine in the golden cup 1000 yuan a barrel, and the food in the jade plate 10000 yuan.
Depressed, I put down a cup of chopsticks and didn't want to eat it; Pulled out his sword and looked around, feeling at a loss.
I want to cross the Yellow River, but the ice and snow have frozen the river. If you want to climb Taihang Mountain, that mountain has been closed by heavy snow.
Like Jiang Shang Yuxi, waiting for a comeback; Like Yi Yin's dream, he passed by the Japanese side by boat.
The road of life is as difficult as it is; The road is complicated. Where are you now?
I believe it's time to ride the wind and waves, and then I must sail across the sea!
Original works:
"It's hard for me to go."
Li Bai [Tang Dynasty]
The cost of pure wine is a gold cup, 10 thousand copper coins and a hip flask, and I am ashamed of 10 thousand yuan.
I threw the food bar and cup aside. I couldn't eat or drink. I pulled out my dagger. I peeped in four directions in vain.
I want to cross the Yellow River, but ice will block the ferry and Taihang Mountain will be covered with snow.
I will sit on a fishing rod and lean lazily by the stream, but I suddenly dream of sailing a boat towards the sun.
It's hard to walk, it's hard to walk, there are many roads, where is Ann now?
One day, I will ride the wind and waves, raise the Yun Fan and cross the sea.
Comment on words and phrases:
Zun: Ancient vessels for holding wine were decorated with gold. Sake: pure wine. A bucket 1000 yuan: the value of a bucket 1000 yuan (that is, 10,000 yuan) describes the high price of wine.
Shame: a precious dish. Shame, the same as "shame", food. Straight: Pass "value", value.
Zhu (zhü): chopsticks.
The second sentence "freedom" means that the poet himself still has expectations for politics. There are two allusions to these two sentences: Lu Shang once fished in Panxi, Weishui, and he met a businessman who helped Zhou destroy; Yi Yin once dreamed that he passed by the sun and the moon by boat, and was later hired by Shang Tang to help businessmen out in the summer. Bibi, sit down.
There are so many fork roads. Where are you now? Ambiguous, an "ambiguous". Ann, where is it?
Metaphor for realizing political ideal. According to the Zong Yi Biography of the Song Dynasty, when Zong Yi was a teenager, his uncle Zong Bing asked him what his ambition was, and he said, "I am willing to ride the wind and break the waves."
Yun Fan: Raise the sail. The ship sails in the sea, because the water is connected with the sky, and the sails seem to haunt the clouds.
Creative background:
In 742 AD (the first year of Tianbao), Li Bai was called to Beijing as an academician. However, it was not reused by Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty, and was vilified and excluded by powerful ministers. Two years later, he was "repaid" and expelled from Chang' an in disguise. Li Bai was forced to leave Beijing, and all his friends came to see him off. There was no hope for the official position, and he felt the hardship of finding a job and wrote this article "Difficult to Go" with indignation.
Appreciation of works:
In the first four sentences of the poem, when Li Bai "gave money back", a friend sent him away. Li Bai is addicted to alcohol. In normal times, because of this delicious wine and the kindness of friends, he will definitely "drink 300 cups at a time." This time, however, he put down a cup of chopsticks and was not interested in eating. He left his seat, drew his sword, looked around and lost his mind. The four continuous movements of stopping, throwing, pulling and caring vividly show the inner depression and emotional agitation.
"I want to cross the Yellow River, but ice will block the ferry and Taihang Mountain will be covered with snow." Write "It's hard to go" on the front. The poet used "ice blocking the river" and "snow covering the mountain" to symbolize the difficulties and obstacles on the road of life, which has a comparative meaning. A man with great political aspirations was called to Beijing and was lucky enough to get close to the emperor, but the emperor could not appoint him. Was "given gold to the mountain" and expelled from Chang' an in disguise. This is like the Yellow River encountering ice and Taihang Mountain encountering snow. However, Li Bai is not that kind of cowardly character. From the beginning of "drawing a sword and looking in all directions", it shows that he is not willing to be depressed and will continue to pursue it.
"I will sit on a fishing rod and lazily lean against the stream, but I suddenly dream of driving a small boat and sailing towards the sun." In a daze, the poet suddenly thought of two figures who were politically unsuccessful at first, but made great achievements in the end: one was fishing in Panxi at the age of 90 and met King Wen; One is Yi Yin. Before he was hired by Shang Tang, he dreamed that he was sailing around the sun and the moon. Thinking about the experiences of these two historical figures increased the poet's confidence.
"It's hard to walk, it's hard to walk, a lot of roads, is it safe now?" The meeting between Jiang Shang and Yi Yin certainly increased his confidence in the future, but when his thoughts returned to the present reality, he once again felt that the road of life was difficult. Looking forward to the future from the banquet, I only feel that the road ahead is rugged and there are many mistakes. I don't know where he is going. This is another feeling in sharp and complicated contradictions. But Li Bai, who is stubborn and confident, never wants to show his discouragement at the farewell party. His strong demand for active use of the world finally freed him from the pain of wandering again, and sang a strong voice full of confidence and prospects: "One day, I will ride the wind and waves, go straight to Yun Fan and cross the deep sea!" He believes that although there are many obstacles ahead, he can still ride the wind and waves, hang up the Yun Fan, cross the sea and reach the ideal shore.
This 14-sentence poem with 82 words can only be regarded as a short poem among the seven-character poems, but it has a long momentum pattern. One of the important reasons is that it reveals the ups and downs and complex changes of the poet's feelings in a hundred steps. At the beginning of the poem, "Golden Wine" and "Jade Plate and Precious Shame" make people feel like a happy banquet, but the following two details, "Quit drinking and throw chopsticks" and "Draw a sword and look around", show a strong impact of emotional waves. In the middle four sentences, I just lamented "the ice jam in Sichuan" and "the snow all over the mountain", and suddenly wandered for thousands of years, as if I saw Jiang Shang and Yi Yin suddenly being reused by the monarch from humble positions. The poet's psychology changes rapidly. The last sentence is short in rhythm and strong in jumping, which is completely an inner monologue in an anxious state, forcing Xiao Xiao to convey the complex psychology of continuing to explore and pursue. At the end of the sentence, after repeated twists and turns in front, the realm suddenly became clear, and I sang a high-pitched and optimistic tone, believing that my ideals and ambitions would be realized one day.
Through such ups and downs of feelings, it not only fully shows the suppression of the poet's grand ideals and ambitions by the dark and dirty political reality, but also reflects the poet's strong inner repression, anger and the injustice caused by it, and at the same time highlights the poet's stubbornness, self-confidence and persistent pursuit of ideals, showing the poet's powerful spiritual strength in trying to get rid of repression.
