"Exploring the Clear Water River"
Composer: None, Lyrics: Old Beijing Songs
Peach leaves are pointy on the tip, and willow leaves cover the sky
This is the Ming Dynasty, listen to me carefully
This happened at the Indigo Factory in the western part of Beijing, and there was a Song Laosan in the Indigo Factory's firearm camp.
Song Laosan is a man who sells cigarettes to the people who live in Beijing, and he has no children in his life.
No children in their lives, but a daughter, Cindy, was born
The girl was sixteen years old, and she was given a nickname
The girl's name was Dailian, and the girl's name was Dailian
Handsome face, but no one ever picks it
The pipa's broken strings, and no one ever plays it, and the girl's name is just like the Sable Cicada who misses Lv Bu, and the girl is just like Yan Po Si who sits on a building and thinks of Zhang San, and the sun sets over the mountains.
The autumn bugs were making a racket, and the Sixth Brother, whom I had longed for day and night
came to my door, and made a date to meet me tonight at three o'clock
Dalien, I was shy and bowed my head, and I had nothing to say, and Dalien had nothing to say
It was because of that I was forced to jump into the river, and it frightened the Sixth Brother to come to visit me in the river. Expanded Information:
The background of the composition of "Exploring the Qingshui River"
At the end of the Qing Dynasty and the beginning of the Republic of China, the firearms battalion was a manufacturer of firearms and cannons, and the village of Firearms Battalion was a Manchu settlement, where the Song Laosan family lived. The family of Song Laosan lived in the village and made a living by growing big cigarettes and running a tobacco shop. The old couple had no children, and the daughter they had was given the nickname Dailian.
Dalien grew to fifteen or sixteen years old, can be described as a pavilion, matchmaking people stepped through the threshold, but Song Laosan two families all day to eat, drink and play, do not care about their daughter's marriage, and then met the village of the young farmer Tong Xiaoliu, the two of them secretly fell in love.
One time Xiaoliu came to Dailian's house, the two were discovered by their parents in the middle of the secret rendezvous, which can be a big trouble, this is the humiliation of the ancestors, bad family. Dalian's father used a whip to beat Dalian to the flesh, give her a kitchen knife, a rope, a shear to cut herself, finally Dalian was forced to do nothing, a heartless jumped out of the door of the Qingshui River
Xiaoliu heard that Dalian has jumped into the river to die, he brought burnt paper to the Qingshui River, in a windy and bitter rainy night, to pay homage to his sister, Dalian, the poor after the homage to the poor Xiaoliu jumped into the river. This story is a tale of martyrdom on both sides.
To commemorate this faithful love story, some people later made up a small song to be sung everywhere, and "Exploring the Qingshui River" has been widely circulated in Beijing ever since.
