Original text

"Spring Dawn"

Meng Haoran

I sleep in spring without realizing the dawn,

I hear the singing of birds everywhere.

The sound of wind and rain at night,

How many flowers have fallen?

Appreciation

This poem is about the scenery of a spring morning. "Spring sleeps before dawn, and you can hear birdsong everywhere." The two sentences are: The nights are short in spring, and it is already dawn before you know it after falling asleep, and the cries of birds are everywhere. These two lines of poetry capture the acoustic characteristics of the chirping of birds and sparrows everywhere in the spring morning, rendering an intoxicating artistic conception of spring and highlighting the exuberant vitality of the spring morning.

In the two sentences "The sound of wind and rain at night, you know how many flowers have fallen", when the poet woke up from a sweet dream and was about to get up, he recalled the sound of wind and rain last night, so he imagined that after the wind and rain, there must be many fallen flowers. The auditory image "the sound of wind and rain" here is by no means a sentimental "heartbreaking sound", but a rich "update song".

This little poem "Spring Dawn" seems to be ordinary and unremarkable when I first read it. After reading it repeatedly, I feel that there is a special world in the poem. Its artistic charm does not lie in the gorgeous rhetoric or the unique artistic techniques, but in its charm. The style of the whole poem is as simple and natural as flowing clouds and flowing water, yet it is far-reaching, profound and uniquely wonderful. For thousands of years, people have recited and discussed it, as if this short four-line poem contains endless artistic treasures.

If it is natural and has no rhythm, it will be superficial; if it has no ups and downs, it will lose its straightness. "Spring Dawn" has both beautiful charm and ups and downs in writing, so the poem has a lasting flavor. The poet wants to express his love for spring, but he does not explain it fully or thoroughly, "the door is half open to the wind", allowing readers to guess and guess, and the expression is full of hidden twists and turns.

"The feeling outside the words is said to be hidden, and the appearance overflowing is said to be beautiful." (Quoted from Zhang Jie's "Suihantang Poetry") When writing about love, the poet selected the emotional fragments in the moment when he fell asleep in the morning to describe . This fragment is the beginning and budding stage of the poet's ideological activities. It is the most generative moment that allows people to imagine the development of his emotions. The poet seizes this moment, but does not spread it out. He just reveals his thoughts to the readers, leads the readers to the track of his emotions, and then leaves it alone. The rest is for the readers to follow the poet's thinking. direction to enrich and supplement.

Comments

Translation

I slept soundly in spring, and when I woke up, it was already dawn, and the sweet chirping of birds could be heard everywhere. The rustling wind and rain at night made me wonder how many flowers were blown down.
