Literary appreciation
This poem begins with "if", which is abrupt, novel and thoughtful. The "bird" in the poem is a general term, and it is a * * * name. It is different from the cuckoo and partridge repeatedly sung by poets in past dynasties, and has a natural and special charm and significance, but it is entirely up to the author to pursue new art without relying on it.
Moreover, the "hoarse throat" in the poem is quite different from the oriole, weeping cuckoo and soaring egret in the classical poetry. It is purely due to the influence of the tragic atmosphere in the early days of the Anti-Japanese War, and it is also the affectionate expression of the special temperament and personality of this "sad poet" (the author claims to be).
The land complex and land in Ai Qing's poems have multiple symbolic meanings in the author's poems. Ai Qing is a "land singer", and "land" constitutes the central image of the author's poems. The image of "land" is a symbol of national spirit, Chinese civilization and the fate of the motherland, which embodies the author's deep love for the motherland and mother earth.
This feeling is fully reflected in this poem: the poet said to sing the motherland like a bird; Even if you die, you should be integrated into the motherland. The image of "land" also reflects the author's deepest love for the laborers who were born, cultivated and died in Sri Lanka.
Concern and exploration of their fate. The "land" here is no longer a simple objective scenery, but an "image" that focuses on the author's subjective feelings.
