The Book of Songs: Appreciation of Xiaoya's Poetry Translation and Annotation

Heron West

Who is he? Its heart is difficult. Hu died and didn't come into my house? Who is the cloud? A cloud of violence.

Two people follow the line, who will suffer for it? Don't mourn me when I'm dead? Not now at first, and the cloud is not mine.

Who is he? Hu passed away? I smell it, but I can't see it Is it worthy of people? Are you afraid of anything?

Who is he? This is the drifting wind. Isn't Hu a northerner? Isn't Hu a southerner? Hu passed away? Stir my heart.

If you are safe, you will not be complacent. I am eager to do it, and I am eager to drive. Come alone, what is a cloud?

I'm relieved that you're still here. It's hard to know if you still don't advance. The one who came gave me a sigh of relief.

Bo's blow, and the clock's blow. As consistent as you are, I dare not blame you for cursing you with these three things.

You can't get ghosts. Have a shy face and treat people like dirt. Making this good song is extremely opposed.

Who's that? His heart is unfathomable. Why did you go to see my fish beam and not come into my house? Who else is with him now, only his tyrannical heart!

They walk with their wives and husbands. Who caused this disaster? Why didn't you come in to comfort me when you went to see my fish beam? Unlike now, you call me a poor product!

Who the hell is that? Why are you coming and going in front of the hall? I only heard his voice, but I have never seen him. Aren't you ashamed in front of people? Even the sky is not afraid of respect?

Who's that? Like the wind. Why don't you come from the north? Why don't you come from the south? Why did you go to see my fish beam? Just messing with my mind.

Relax. You don't have time to stay one night. You are in a hurry to leave, but the gas truck is still free. How many days can I see through for you to come here once!

When you come back to my room, my heart will jump with joy. Who knows why you didn't come into my room when you got home? I'm looking forward to your visit. I'm worried sick.

My brother plays pottery and my brother plays bamboo flute. I have a connection with you. Can we meet without dating? May God offer three sacrifices before me and curse you for breaking your vows.

If it is a quotation, it is hard to guess. But you are an outstanding person, and your behavior has no rules I can only make this good song, and I haven't slept for a long time.

Distinguish and appreciate

The old saying is based on Preface to Mao's Poems, which is thought to be the work of "Su Gong fiercely stabbing Gong". Because the mob is Zhou's aristocratic scholar, Su Gong's works are absolutely poetic. Then, it's time for it to be a poem of political breakup of upper-class colleagues.

But judging from the content of the poem, it seems that it has nothing to do with the Soviet Union and the violence. There are many times in this poem that the language of "I lost my beam when I passed away". "Liang" is a fishing ground built with weirs in ancient times. In Gu Feng, there is a lawsuit of "Don't lose my beam, don't make me fat", which shows that this is the duty of housewives, and the protagonist is a woman. What does it have to do with "Su Gong"? As for "who is the cloud?" The Cloud of Evil Violence is similar to the accusation of her husband's "violence" in Feng Wei's Self-protection, saying that only rough nature can keep pace with him, and we can't hope to reason from literature, so we can draw "violence" to attach. There is also "I am still here, my heart is relaxed;" It's hard to know if you don't enter. It points out that the object of your condemnation lives with me, and my home is his home, so he can "return" and "get the car" in court. If it refers to the "mob" who destroyed Su Gong, it would be ridiculous to call his visit "return". Every time he returns, he will "enter" my room. Therefore, breaking this poem is about the political entanglement between the Soviet Union and the mob, which is unreasonable. From the feminine tone of the heroine, it seems more appropriate to accuse her husband of giving up his wife in anger.

In this way, in The Book of Songs Xiaoya, readers learn about another poor divorcee whose fate is similar to that of the protagonist in Feng Wei, although her status is different. She may have had a brief period of vows of eternal love and the happiness of loving husband and wife. However, with the arrival of spring in Qiu Lai and the withering of pearls, her "hard-hearted" (unpredictable in his mind as "self-protection" and "despair in his heart") husband regarded her as "the beginning has not yet appeared", rudely replacing tenderness, and passionate love turned into indifference. When the husband came home, all he could think about was going to Heliang to get fish and shrimp to enjoy, but he didn't even have the interest to "walk into" the room to express condolences to his wife who was working in the room. He's always in a hurry (maybe he's already having an affair). Said he was busy, but he could slowly refuel his car in court; Said he was fine, but he didn't even have time to "go to bed" (rest and leisure) for one night. I finally expected him to come back once, but only left my wife with the pain of abusive treatment. I think that the rope of fate has bound my husband and me together ("harmony"), and they should be close to each other as "Bo" and "Zhong" (in ancient times, brothers were often used to refer to the harmony between husband and wife); Nowadays, the husband doesn't even care about the minimum couple ceremony, which can't help but arouse the heroine's grief and indignation. In the "opposite" of the long night, she finally issued an angry curse: "If you are a ghost, you can't get it." If you have a shy face, you will look down on others "-you really have a face in vain, and your mind is sinister and unpredictable, which is simply better than quotations!

Judging from the conclusion of the poem, "it is the opposite to write this good song (because it involves the feelings of men and women)," and this song was written when the heroine stayed up all night. Although this poem also contains quite a few narrative elements, its context is not clear. In the questioning full of doubts, the wandering figure of "there" is displayed, interspersed with various fragments of life in memories, making the structure of the whole poem look fragmented. If we want to find an appropriate word to explain the performance characteristics of this poem, it is two words-"dream". This, in general, has something to do with the heroine's sleepless face when composing music. From the news revealed in the poem, it can be seen that the cold shoulder of the fickle husband to the heroine undoubtedly lasted for a long time. Whenever she is eager to see her return, her husband is always late; Even when I came back, I was mysterious, just like the wind, hanging around the yard and the fish beam, only caring about my own enjoyment, and rarely having the sincerity to go into the house and talk to my wife. A couple who were once lovers of Yan 'er have become strangers. These scenes, of course, will be deeply imprinted in the heroine's mind and hard to erase. So when she was tossing and turning, she was in a trance, and her past and present feelings may have become scattered fragments, emerging in front of her like a dream. This poem adapts to this specific background, and adopts the image of overlapping, vacillating and rapidly changing chapters and questions, which shows the heroine's doubts and surprises, pain and anger and sadness between memories and dreams. The object that enters the heroine's dream is obviously her husband, but she doesn't seem to know him. At first, she asked, "Who is he?" It perfectly conveys the sense of confusion in this trance. In the following "I lost my beam, but I didn't express my condolences" and "I heard its voice, but I didn't see its body", I used confusing words to show the audio-visual and ideological characteristics that only dreams have. The heroine just wanted to examine it carefully when the dreamland changed again. Car shadows and voices turned into "floating wind" and rolled towards the fish beam. But in the blink of an eye, she seemed to see her husband still in court, just like his leisurely "fat car". The vagaries of dreams, accompanied by the doubts, fears, disappointments and resentments of the heroine in a trance, have emerged as lines of poems, which have produced this wonderful and unique "Abandoned Wife Song".
