Six Shrike Poems of Midsummer Mango Phenomena: Shrike flies at dusk and the wind blows the ebony tree

Because of a beautiful poem in Wei and Jin Dynasties, I paid attention to Shrike. The folk songs in Wei and Jin Dynasties have beautiful rhymes and brisk rhythms. Has a different meaning. For example, this summer's folk song

"Remembering the plum blossoms in Xizhou, folding the plum blossoms and sending them to Jiangbei.

the single shirt is apricot red, and the double-sided crow is young.

Where is Xizhou? Cross the bridge with two oars.

at dusk, shrike flies and the wind blows the ebony tree.

under the tree is the door, and the door is full of green flowers.

If you can't open the door, go out and pick red lotus. " Wei and Jin dynasties? Anonymous

The person I love knows that there are plum trees in Xizhou, so he goes to Xizhou to collect plums and send them to Jiangbei.

and I'm wearing apricot red clothes this summer, and my hair is green. It's the most beautiful season, and the person I love is not at home.

where is Xizhou? Need to row, cross the bridgehead ferry.

at dusk, both shrike birds return, and the wind blows the Chinese tallow tree at the door, but mine hasn't come back yet.

under the Chinese tallow tree is my home. I waited for anxiety and opened the door, but I took the birds outside as a knock on the door, but I didn't see Lang Jun coming back. So in order to pass the time, I drove the boat directly to Nantang in front to collect lotus seeds and lotus flowers.

This poem has a fresh summer style of Jiangnan water town, and Shrike both flew back to Sapium sebiferum, with a kind of sadness.

what kind of bird is shrike?

shrike, in the pre-Qin period, was called "Yun" and pronounced "Ju", which looked like a bird with a pattern of shellfish.

In The Book of Rites, there is a midsummer month in which "the mantis begins to sing, but the tongue is silent". That is to say, in midsummer, mantis will hatch and the anchovy will start to sing, but Kuzu will be silent. This anchovy is Shrike.

According to the phenology of summer solar terms, later generations classified the special phenomena of these three kinds of animals as three seasons of summer mango, which lasted every five days, and shrike began to sing, which meant that summer mango entered the second stage. That is to say, in the pre-Qin and midsummer, shrike was common, and cries were often heard.

"The birds sing in July, and the achievements are recorded in August.

I'm Zhu Kongyang, and

I'm a son. " The Book of Songs "National Wind and Hurricane? (now in the area of Yixian County, Shaanxi Province) July

The Book of Songs in the same period was a folk song in the pre-Qin period, which recorded the phenology and people's production and labor in the northern region all year round. In July, shrike crowed enthusiastically, and in August, it began to weave hemp, dyeing silk with black and yellow, while I dyed red more brightly, which was dedicated to your son to make clothes.

In other words, shrike began to crow in April of the lunar calendar, and it can be heard in almost every mountain residence in the north of China in July. It is a common agricultural and forestry bird.

shrike's voice is very special. "It sings in May, and its sound is quiet." Shrike's song in the middle summer of May in the lunar calendar makes a short "local" sound. This kind of bird with shell pattern is large and fierce, and often lives in trees, bringing insects and snakes back to the top of trees in summer to feed their young. The fifth month of the lunar calendar is the stage of their frequent courtship, reproduction and feeding, and they make frequent calls.

At this stage, shrike flies in pairs, building their homes, and is extremely busy.

This is also a folk song in the Wei and Jin Dynasties, which used the phrase "Dusk flies and the wind blows the ebony tree" to describe the loneliness and melancholy of a woman waiting for her husband to return at dusk. The shrikes have all gone home, but my you are still in Xizhou and have not come back.

It uses Shrike's hard work to express his anxiety and melancholy about waiting.

"flying east to shrike and flying west to swallow, Huang Gu met when she was weaving a girl.

whose daughter lives opposite each other, she shines brightly.

the south window and the north window are hung with bright light, and the curtains are fragrant.

My daughter is in her mid-fifties, and she is as graceful as Yan Ruyu.

In the third spring, the flowers are fading away from the wind, leaving no room for pity. "South beam? Xiao Yan's Song of Shrike Flying East

Because Shrike is a woodbird living in mountains and plains, it is fierce in character, unlike swallows, and likes to nest in other people's eaves, people often only know birds by their voices.

The midsummer of the lunar calendar is the time when shrike birds can be heard and both of them can be seen hovering over the treetops, and it is also the time when swallows shuttle under other people's eaves to feed. These two kinds of birds constitute the common rural scenery in summer.

In the seventh month of the lunar calendar, in the early autumn, you can still see these two kinds of birds, feeding separately during the day and returning at night, but they all enjoy the beauty of returning home after dusk, just like the morning glory and the weaver star in the sky, and they always have time to meet and be together. Shrike and Swallow are folk couple birds and family birds.

shrike is a woodbird, while swallows are other people's eaves birds. shrike flies east and swallows fly west, which means that these two birds are still in pairs, although their fate is different.

At this time, it is the traditional Chinese Valentine's Day, but there is still a beautiful girl, fifteen or sixteen years old, who is the best age to get married. She is particularly bright and beautiful, and she is the most beautiful girl in this area. She has good family conditions, but she has not yet married.

The ancients, especially in rural areas, thought that the best age for girls to get married was thirteen to fifteen. After fifteen, they approached older women and began to hate marriage.

This poem describes the loneliness of this beautiful girl through the pairing of shrike birds and swallows, and the fact that the cowherd and the weaver girl are husband and wife, and there are also days to be together every year. She has almost passed the most beautiful flower season, but she has not yet got married. She runs her own family in pairs like shrike and swallow, and enjoys the hard work and continuation of human love.

This is a marriage-hating poem that compares shrike, swallow and Tanabata.

But later, it gradually changed its original meaning.

Lao Yan's parting is originally a metaphor for shrike and swallow, each flying in pairs, and finally becomes a hard-working swallow, busy with survival, but unable to meet each other at home, which is a metaphor for the separation and wandering of husband and wife in the world.

"The spring cattail leaves in the pond are like ribbons, and the lotus seeds in Zi Ling are as big as horns.

The cicada's hair skirt leans against the wind, and both shrike fly to the east. "In the middle tang dynasty? Meng Jiao's Linchiqu

This is the midsummer of the Tang Dynasty, and there are shrike figures already.

The spring calamus in the pond is now the Dragon Boat Festival and May, and its leaves are as slender as ribbons.

The water chestnut begins to mature, the lotus blooms and the lotus seeds grow.

That summer beauty, wearing summer cicada sideburns and summer Luo clothes, stood at the head of the building by the water and looked into the distance. Instead of seeing her husband return, she saw two shrike birds returning to the forest at dusk.

This is a Tang Dynasty interpretation of Xizhou Qu.

Hundreds of years have passed from the Southern and Northern Dynasties to the Tang Dynasty. Women have different costumes, so they may have a better life. They don't have to go to the lake to pick lotus.

Her husband is not necessarily a manual worker in the countryside.

But being apart from being lovesick is the same. The husband went to a distant place, or studied abroad, or became an official or guarded the border. In such a beautiful summer in May, the woman only saw Shrike flying in pairs, but she was separated from her husband. How helpless and melancholy. How much she wants to fly with her husband. Ordinary couples, the so-called love, are willing to be together.

"In a moment, the wind warms the sun, and the sound of the stream turns into the noise of birds.

whose young woman is frightened to death, where is she worried about her hometown?

Shrike flies in a cramped voice, and the mulberry fields are green when Dai Sheng descends.

It's not as good as the singing of the flowers by the street warblers every day, which can make thousands of families feel free in spring. "In the middle tang dynasty? Wei Yingwu's "listen to warbler songs?

this is a poem written in summer.

shrike is a bird of prey, so his voice is hasty. The sound itself is a low-pitched short sound like "bureau". It is often heard in summer, which will cause moving melancholy, like a sad sound. How can it keep up with the euphemistic voice of orioles and make people feel happy?

It's summer, and the sun and wind are warm. Many birds are courting and breeding at this time, and many birds are noisy.

The newly-married young woman in her hometown was awakened by the sound of birds in Xia Meng, because her husband has gone on a long trip, and the relationship between the young couple is so good. In the distance, when the husband hears the sound of birds, he will miss his wife.

When the shrike flew by, its voice was so low and short that Dai Sheng crowed among the mulberry fields.

Their voices can't keep up with the beauty of oriole, which makes people feel that every family is reunited, carefree and full of spring.

here is the cramped bitter sound of shrike to describe the emotional bitterness of couples who separated soon after their wedding.

oriole is a bird of happiness, and obviously this young woman envies the delicate life accompanied and pampered by her husband, instead of living in the bitter sound like a shrike.

Obviously, at this time, the shrike has gradually lost its original beauty in pairs, and even the fatigue of its name reflects the hardships and loneliness of people's hearts and lives.

"Yan Shu is misty and Shu Yun is low. Petty and accustomed to each other.

nowadays, Lao Yan has different things. I mean threesome.

Tianya Road, Ling Bo Step. How to remember each other?

the azaleas are singing heartily. Red through the fallen flower mud. "Qing? Miao Zhusun, "Xi Qian Ying follows the official Hubei City and remembers Yan Shu's sister?"

This little word of the Qing Dynasty was written by a woman to her best friend.

She went to Ezhou, Hubei Province as an official with her husband, while her younger sister stayed in Sichuan.

since I was a child, you and I have lived together, just like Shrike and Swallow, but I am still seemingly happy outside, and my husband flies like a swallow.

Actually, I miss you. How can lovesickness compare with meeting?

I hear cuckoos constantly crowing, which is another kind of human parting.

then, after the Republic of China and modern times, and even among the people, Lao Yan often took the word Lao as the prefix and adjective of the swallow, referring to the separation of husband and wife.

In midsummer, it is also the time when shrike calls. Naturally, urbanites rarely know what shrike looks like, but it is necessary to interpret the origin of Lao Yan's parting.

Because shrike swallows, although they have different flying directions and their own hardships, still show that happiness is a pair of families and perfection.

The first dress wins snow to interpret love and beauty in poetry for you. .
