The Water Song was composed by Su Shi in remembrance of his brother, was Su Zhe dead or far away at the time? The story is not the same

Song of Songs in Water

Song Su Shi

When is the bright moon? I ask the blue sky with a glass of wine. I don't know what year it is in the palace in the sky. I want to go back by the wind, but I am afraid that the agate tower and jade building are too high to be cold, and I want to dance and make a clear shadow, so it is like being on the earth.

Turning to the Zhu Pavilion, and arriving at the beautiful house, I can't sleep. The first thing you need to do is to get the best out of it. The moon has its own sunshine and rainy days, and this matter can never be resolved. But I wish you a long life, a thousand miles of **** Canyuan Juan.

Appreciation

This popular Mid-Autumn Festival song was written in the ninth year of Emperor Xining of the Song Dynasty (1076), that is, the Mid-Autumn Festival in the year of Cchen, for the author's drunkenness and nostalgia for his younger brother Su Zhe.

The whole lyric uses image depiction and romanticism imagination, focusing on the mid-autumn moon to carry out description, lyricism and discussion, thinking from the sky and the earth, the moon and the people, space and time, and sublimating one's own feelings towards one's brother to the philosophical height of exploring the optimism and misery in life, which expresses the author's optimistic and open-minded attitude to life and the good wishes and infinite love for life.

The first piece of the performance of the lyricist from the dust out of the world to the love of life's ideological activities, focusing on writing the sky. The opening sentence of "When will the moon come?" is borrowed from Li Bai's "When will the moon come in the blue sky? I stop my cup to ask about it", by asking questions to the sky, the reader's thoughts are led to the world of the immortals in the desert space. The following lines of "I don't know what year it is in the heavenly palace" are colorful and colorful. It shows that the author is "out of the world" and "into the world", i.e. "retreat" and "advance", "Serving" and "hidden" on the choice between the deep self wandering confused state of mind. Above write the poet to ask the moon, is the question of the moon, the exploration, the momentum is extraordinary, abrupt and upright.

"I want to go back by the wind, but I am afraid of the jeweled buildings, the heights are too cold" a few lines, write the lyricist to the moon palace fairyland of yearning and doubt, implying the author of the world, into the world of the double contradictory psychology. The "Dance and make clear shadow, how like on earth", write the lyricist's into the world of thought over the world of thought, showing the lyricist obsession with life, love of the feelings of the world.

The next piece of the integration of writing for the writing, the scenery for the feelings, showing the interpretation of the lyricist on the world of sadness and happiness, focusing on the writing of the human world. "should not hate, why long to the other time round" two sentences, bearing "shine sleepless" and the next, the writing is dripping staccato, on the surface is annoyed with the moon shine people, increase the "full moon is not a round" of the frustration of hate, in the backbone The author's nostalgia for his loved ones is expressed through the moon. "People have sadness and happiness, the moon has the yin and sunny and round and missing, this matter is difficult to complete" three sentences, write the lyricist to the world of sadness and happiness, indicating that the author due to the influence of Zhuangzi and Buddhist thought, formed a kind of free, open-minded mind, Qi Pang insult, forget the loss, transcendental, as a social phenomenon of human grief and grievance, inequality, and the yin and sunny, round and missing of the moon, comparable to these natural phenomena. He compares human sorrows and grievances as a social phenomenon with the natural phenomena of the moon, and considers them as one and the same, and seeks comfort. At the end of the poem, "I wish you a long time, thousands of miles of **** Cain Juan", turns out a higher state of mind, to all the world's separated relatives (including their own brothers), sends out sincere condolences and wishes, to the whole word adds a positive and energetic meaning. The second part of the word, the penmanship is wide open, powerful and thick, highly summarizes the intricate changes on earth and in heaven, in the world of nature, and expresses the author's desire for a better, happier life, which is both philosophical and full of feelings.

This is a masterpiece of Su Shi's philosophical words. It fully embodies the author's comprehensive understanding and knowledge of the eternal universe and the complex and changing human society, and it is a small summary of the author's worldview through the observation of the moon and people, which is sufficient to summarize the whole in a partial way. The author looks down on the changes of the past and the present, laments the flow of the universe, and is tired of the eunuchs. In the atmosphere of the moon in the sky and the solitude, the author has penetrated into the strong philosophical meaning and revealed the wise concepts of life, achieving a high degree of compatibility between human beings and the universe, and between nature and the society.

Appreciation II

This piece was written by Su Shi in the mid-autumn of the ninth year of Xining (1076), when he was drinking and enjoying the moon in the Chaoran Terrace in Mizhou. Su Shi, with the character of Zizhan and the name of Dongpo Jushi, was one of the rare literary geniuses of the two Song dynasties and of Chinese history, with high achievements in poetry, lyrics, prose, calligraphy, and painting. Whether it is poetry or prose, all show a wide range of subjects, deep thought, the realm of far-reaching brushwork characteristics, at that time and for future generations have had an extremely far-reaching impact.

From Xining four years (1071), to write this piece stop, outside the office for five years, and his brother Su Zhe also five years have not seen. Su Shi was originally the Hangzhou Tongjian, because Su Zhe in Jinan in charge of the secretary, specially requested the north, to Mizhou, however, Jinan and Mizhou is not far away from each other, but also because of their own fatigue in the official affairs of the five years have not been allowed to see each other, the present is the expression of this hand and foot miss each other's feelings. At the same time, the lyricist can not help but think that the two brothers are due to the change of the law faction and the local officials, and was treated coldly, can not help but think of the danger of the career path. Therefore, the main theme of this piece is to "get drunk" and express the contradictory feelings of being out of the world and being in the world, retiring and advancing in the civil service.

The study of the small preface, and the word for one, explaining the writing time of the word, "bingchen mid-autumn", that is, the Song Godzong Xining nine years (1076); background, "happy drinking up to the day"; the title of the purpose of the drunkenness, "both wistfulness and Ziyu", the former is the main. "The former is the main, the latter is the auxiliary. The former is the main, the latter is the secondary. In other words, the lyricist's feelings during the period of exile are very few.

This first mid-autumn words. The first piece, because of the moon and the heavenly fantasy; the next piece, because of the moon and the sense of the events on earth. It is free, not carved, and the atmosphere of volatility, beyond the mortal world. Hu Zhongren said that the mid-autumn festival words, since this word, the rest of the word all abolished, can be seen to be unique at the time of the concept. The first sentence, breaking the sky, strange and unusual, the intention from Taibai "the moon in the blue sky, I want to stop the cup to ask the" out. "I do not know" two sentences, take on the above meaning, more questioning, I do not know when the moon, so I do not know what year is this evening in the sky. "I want to" three sentences, because of the question and can not be understood, is the wish to go back by the wind, "I want to" and "and fear" echoed. The phrase "the jeweled building is too high to be cold," is ingenious in terms of meaning, and extremely comforting in terms of symbolism. "Dance" two lines, still ride up, down to the immediate situation, that neither can not return by wind, but wandering in the moon. Since the first to this, a gas unrestrained, honestly feel that there is a wind and sea rain forced the situation. Change the head, actually write the moonlight shine everyone sleepless. The following is deeper and deeper, and it becomes a wonderful meaning of its own. "Should not" two lines, actually write the full moon is not round, quite annoyed with the intention of the moon. The three lines of "People have" turn around and say that the moon and people are impermanent, which has been the case since the beginning of time, and there is the intention to break down the moon for the people. The two sentences of "I wish" go even further, saying that since people and the moon have been impermanent since ancient times, we can only protect our bodies of a thousand pieces of gold, borrow the moon to unite our hearts, and never forget each other. Although the original intention from Xie Zhuang "Moon Fugue" "thousands of miles away Ruoxi *** bright moon" sentence out, Su Shi added "but I hope" two words, it is deeper, more intense meaning carry on.

The words of the moon, off and personnel.

The first part of the metaphor of the moon, dancing with the shadow, independent of the world of indignation, since the lonely. The first part of the song is about the moon, and the second part is about the moon, and the third part is about the moon. In the first four lines, asking about the moon and the year one after another, it is similar to Qu Yuan's "Heavenly Questions", which is a strange and elegant start. "I don't know" a few sentences, the force of the writing back and forth, opening and closing the tumble, colorful, to reveal "out of the world", "into the world", that is, the choice between retiring and entering the world and the confusion caused by the choice. Want to transcend the world, ride the wind back, and hesitate to wander, building high Yu cold does not win, landing in reality, "dance under the moon to make clear shadow", better than fairyland, which shows that the lyricist is not completely transcendent nature, but in nature to find the meaning of life "in the midst of the pain", namely Su Shi is still based on reality, passionate about the world, feel that there are brothers, relatives and friends of the love of life on earth, come more intimate and warm.

The next piece of the moon lined with the feeling of separation, the intention of nostalgia, the pen to loop back from the writing of the real for the writing, into the scene for the feelings. With "turn", "low", "shine" three words, describing the flow with the moonlight, light and shadow of the object to move, time to follow the advancement of sleeplessness and love. That is, the moonlight around the pavilion, and from under the portal into the house, shining on the people who can not sleep at night. It is explicitly written moon, secretly written people, quite containing resentment and annoyance. "Should not" two sentences, the writing force is dripping, staccato, seemingly enjoying the moon, ask the moon, actually for the nostalgia. With "people have sadness and happiness, the moon has the routine," the self-explaining. This kind of interpretation of natural physics, interpretation of sadness and happiness, the mood of openness, people can't get enough of it. The last two lines of Xie Zhuang's "Moon Fugue" "thousands of miles away from the *** bright moon" sentence meaning, to push the new, the full moon to a higher realm of homesickness. Life is not without regrets, sadness and happiness is one of them. Su Shi thinks, people have sadness and happiness, with the moon has the same, both are natural common sense, no need to be sentimental. Finally, the reasoning of sentiments, from *** with the pastime of the moon in mutual solace, parting of this life regret from the feelings of friendship and love to get compensation. Life is not looking for a long time together, the two hearts together, the moon and ****, is not a beautiful realm. The lyrics of the upper part of the obsession with life, the lower part of the good life, showing Su Shi's love of life, the side of the feelings of open-mindedness. The word in the realm of high purity, reasoning, deep flavor, and to the dashing pen, not fake carving, roll and Shu freely, so nine hundred years of recitation, see the Song and Yuan when the singing of the flourishing.

There are three reasons why "Song of Water and Songs (When Will the Moon Come?)" has been recited throughout the ages: because of its open-mindedness, rich imagination, and marvelous artistic conception, the image shown in the song is broad and profound, with high aesthetic value and artistic charm; the sadness of parting written in the words of "This matter is hard to be complete" can stir up the hearts of people from all ages, from all walks of life, from all walks of life to all walks of life, from all times, from every corner of the world to every corner of the world, and all times of life. The parting hate can stir up all times, all types of readers of the *** song; words of the wish for a better life has crossed the Su Shi brother's boundaries, "into all the love of happy life of the people *** with the hope".

"Song of Water" (when the bright moon) "is Su Shi unique, popular masterpieces. First of all, the intention, the conception, strange and elegant, with surreal remote thought, with the imaginary fantasy world, performance is very realistic and specific human feelings. Here, through the imagination of the moon palace fairyland, the lyricist expresses his contradictions and ups and downs of thought, life experience and understanding in a kind of mysterious exploration and thinking. This kind of performance is not only extraordinary, but also constitutes the romanticism tone and the style of transcendence.

Secondly, it is another outstanding feature of this piece that the moon is used as the main line to make the feelings, scenery and reasoning coherent. At the beginning of the first piece, the moon unfolds thoughts, and through successive questions, it expresses the desire to be free from the world. The next piece is also inspired by the moon, and uses the moon's cycle to compare the sorrows and joys of the world. The whole piece of the moon into the scene, from the moon to love, and the moon to understand the reason, the lyricist's ideal of life, but also make this piece seems to be far-reaching, meaningful, and heavy flavor.

Appreciation III

Because of the author's political disagreement with the powers that be, he was ostracized to be a magistrate in Mizhou, and his mood was very depressed; at the same time, he had not seen his brother Ziyu for seven years, and his heart missed him very much, and he expressed all kinds of thoughts through the lyrics.

The first piece of the moon, not only the idea, high and confused, but also down-to-earth, since the amount of elegance and high-mindedness. The first four sentences ask the moon and ask the year, like Qu Yuan's "Heavenly Questions", starting with a strange and elegant. The Tang Dynasty called Li Bai the "Exiled Immortal", and Huang Tingjian called Su Shi and Li Bai the "Two Exiled Immortals", and Su Shi himself envisioned that he was a man in the moon in his past life, and thus thought of "returning to the world by the wind". But heaven and earth, fantasy and reality, out of the world and into the world, both attracted him at the same time. In contrast, he is still based on reality, passionately in love with the human world, and feels that the earthly life with brothers and friends is warm and friendly. Dancing under the moon, the light and shadow of the realm of life is better than the moon ground cloud steps, wide cold and clear void of the heavenly palace. The first thing you need to do is to get your hands on some of the most popular products and services in the world, and then you can get your hands on some of the most popular ones.

The next piece of nostalgia. Life is not without regrets, sadness and happiness is one of them. Su Shi brotherhood is very strong. He and Su Zhe Xining four years (1071) Yingzhou respectively after six years gone. Su shi originally served as Hangzhou pass judge, because Su rut in Jinan in charge of the secretary, specially requesting the northern migration. To Mizhou or no chance to meet. "at arm's length days do not see each other, really with thousands of miles, life without parting, who knows the love of heavy" (Yingzhou, the first parting ZiYu), but Su shi think, people have sadness and happiness with the moon has the same as the moon has the same roundness, the two are the natural common sense, no need to be sentimental. Finally, the reasoning to dispel feelings, from *** with the moon in the mutual solace, parting this life regret from the feelings of friendship and love to be compensated. Life does not seek a long gathering, two hearts together, the bright moon and ****, is not a beautiful realm. The lyrics of the upper part of the obsession with life, the lower part of the good life, showing Su Shi's love of life, the side of the feelings of open-mindedness.

This word is a fusion of the universe and life issues, the thinking of the officialdom and the nostalgia for his brother through the moonlight viewing, magnificent imagination without forgetting the real life, is the author's masterpiece. In the words, the realm is high and pure, the reasoning is clear, the flavor is deep, and out of the dashing pen, a piece of God line, not fake carving, volume and Shu freely, so nine hundred years of recitation never fails. Water Margin" 30th written on August 15 "can sing a mid-autumn to the moon to the scene of the song," sung by this "a bachelor of Dong Po mid-autumn "Water Tunes Song." It can be seen that the Song and Yuan dynasty, the prevalence of singing. Hu Zai of the Song Dynasty said, "Since the release of Dong Po's Song in the Key of Water, the rest of the lyrics have been abolished." (Campsis Fishermen's Hidden Words) is highly evaluated

Appreciation IV

"Songs in the Key of Water" (水调歌头(明月几时有)) is Su Shi's masterpiece, which has been praised and liked by the descendants. It is a unique and popular heirloom lyric. One hundred and seventy-six Su Shi relegated to Mizhou, then forty-one years old, he was politically very uninspired, at the time of the Mid-Autumn Festival, very much miss their younger brother, Zi by the inner feeling of melancholy, depressed, and wrote the lyrics with feeling. Its intention, conception, strange and elegant, with surreal remote imagination, to the imaginary world of fantasy, performance is very realistic and specific human feelings. Here, through the imagination of the moon palace fairyland, the lyricist expresses his contradictions and twists and turns of thought, life experience and understanding in a kind of exploration and thinking which is rich in mysterious color. This kind of performance is not only extraordinary, but also constitutes the romanticism tone and the style of transcendence.

The first piece begins with "When is the bright moon? Ask the blue sky with a glass of wine." These two lines are taken from Li Bai's "Ask the Moon with Wine": "When will the moon come to the blue sky? I am stopping my cup to ask." They are derived from Li Bai's "Ask the Moon with Wine". "Holding up my glass of wine, I ask the blue sky when the moon in the sky came to be"? This sentence fully reveals the author's frank and sincere disposition, and also hides his inner deplorable and sadness for life. The next two lines: "I don't know what year it is in the palace in the sky" is the content of the question, which pushes the praise and longing for the bright moon to a higher level. From the time of the birth of the moon to now has passed many years, I do not know in the moon palace tonight is a what day. The poet imagines that it must be a good day, that is why the moon is so full and bright. He was eager to go and have a look, so he went on to say, "I want to return on the wind, but I am afraid that the jeweled buildings are too high to be cold." He wanted to go back to the moon palace by the wind, but he was afraid of the bleakness there and couldn't bear the coldness there. This is such a strange imagination, which expresses the contradictory feelings of the lyricist between "leaving the world" and "entering the world". The word "return" indicates that the lyricist is dissatisfied with the world, and the word "return" has the flavor of an immortal's self-reference, as if he originally lived in the moon palace but only temporarily lived on earth. The word "want" and "fear" reveals the contradiction of the lyricist's thoughts. It can really be called "the stroke of wonder". "The dance is like a clear shadow, why is it like being on earth?" Closely connected with the above, write the lyricist dancing in the moonlight, the shadow is also dancing with the people, although there are jade buildings in the sky is difficult to compare with the happiness of the earth. Here from the dust into the holy all of a sudden turned to like the life on earth, ups and downs, written out of the gods.

The lyricist initially fantasized about the fairyland and wanted to go to the moon palace to get away from the earth which had caused him infinite troubles, but the lyricist was realistic after all, and loved life, so he erased this vain picture scene with his own hands.

The next piece associates the full moon of the mid-autumn festival with the parting of the earth. "Turning the vermilion pavilion, lowering the beautiful house, illuminating sleeplessness." Turning and low both refer to the movement of the moon, implying that the night is deep. The moonlight turns over the vermilion pavilion and lowers itself through the carved doors and windows, searching for the insomniacs in the house. "Sleeplessness" is a generalized reference to those who, like themselves, feel so sad that they cannot sleep because they cannot be reunited with their loved ones. It is a pity that the moon is full but the people cannot be reunited! So the poet complained about the moon and said, "There should be no hate, why should it be round when it is not?" The moon should not have any grudges, why is it always round when people part? This is to blame the moon for deliberately making things difficult for people and adding sorrow to them, but also implicitly expresses sympathy for people who have the misfortune to be separated. The poet is open-minded, he needs to relieve himself, so he gives vent to his feelings of homesickness during the festive season in a questioning tone. Then, the poet turned his brush to the moon and spoke some words of relief: "People have their sorrows and joys, the moon has its ups and downs, and this matter can never be resolved." There are always sorrows, joys, separations and reunions in the world, just like the moon in the sky has yin, sunshine, roundness and shortness, which have been difficult to be perfected since ancient times. This sentence reveals the lyricist's free and open-minded character of realizing life, and it is also a kind of lamentation on the helplessness of life. Here, it is written from life to nature with a wide-open and close brush, and all kinds of lives are refined and summarized, containing countless painful and joyful experiences in life. The concluding line, "I wish that people would be long nine, thousands of miles *** Chan Juan." I just hope people can always be healthy and safe, and even if they are thousands of miles apart, they can still enjoy the bright moon in the sky on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival **** together. Here is the nostalgia for distant relatives and a kind of blessing.

The whole word emotion indulgence run, tumbling, structured, vein clear, scenarios, tightly around the "moon" word unfolding, suddenly on, suddenly small, a moment away from the dust, a moment into the world, the statement concise natural, showing the words of the high language skills and romantic free flowing words of the style.

This "Song of Water" has always been respected. Hu Zai said in "Campsis Fishing Hidden Series of Words", "Mid-Autumn Festival words, since Dongpo's 'Song in the Key of Water', the rest of the words are all abolished." It is not too much to say that this is one of the best lyrics written about the Mid-Autumn Festival. The lyric seems to be a dialog with the bright moon, in which the meaning of life is explored. It is both rational and amorous, and is very intriguing. It has a broad mood, optimistic and open-minded, the feeling of yearning for the bright moon, the feeling of attachment to the earth, as well as the romantic color, the dashing style and the language of clouds and flowing water, which can still give us a wonderful enjoyment.
