2. Original text:
Red beans grow everywhere in the South, the most popular Count of red bean trees in Wuxi. The saying is that Xiao Lang's hand hurt himself, and he shed red tears for thousands of years to swallow the wind and rain.
The son of Emperor Xiao Lang is a dragon, and the golden cicadas and green scorpions are the most beautiful. To help the poor and poor people in Suzhou is not enough, the candles in the Wenxuan building are red every night.
It’s just after the new rain during the Qingming Festival, I go for an outing and ask about the flowers and willows. Say goodbye to the tired eyes and thousands of flying crows, it is rare to have a cup of wine to clear your heart.
Danglong's daughter is near the front stream, wearing apricot red shirt and green poplar branches. We meet but we seem to have known each other before, and we miss each other even though we have never known each other.
Holding a cup in plain hands to serve the young master, his bright eyes are filled with spring water with a smile. There is no need for silk and bamboo to accompany the clear songs, the wandering orioles in the world want to die of shame.
Bitaohua vowed to live her whole life, and Anon whispered to Xuhua: "Because I love red beans, they are called red beans. I don't admire prosperity but only value love."
After returning, Dumen took a pen and inkstone and went to bed. Feed Shen Zhen thousands of volumes of books. When the jasper is not ready to break the melon, it is not too late to get married and change the year.
The anthology finally became the first book, and the toothpicks and scrolls gathered in Qiongju. The sound of the phoenix and the dragon pipe welcome the red beans, and the spring breeze blows away the purple clouds.
The white-headed mother swallowed and sobbed: "I didn't expect that I would end up sick! Where can I find the red beans? The front stream is a land of sorrow.
The magpies are noisy in the morning and the lights are dim at dusk. The maple leaves and peach blossoms return to spring. A lonely girl with no way to escape the Golden Gate.
Her breath is like silk and her tears are turning to blood. She calls out to you when she leaves something behind, wrapped in a brocade handkerchief. It is the heart of a child. "
The mandarin duck girl embroidered the handkerchief, and the mandarin duck handkerchief wrapped a pair of red beans. If you hear Hong Dou calling Xiao Lang, Hong Dou and Lang will stay together forever.
I regret that I have failed a beautiful lady because of my merits, and I have come so cruelly that Chi Qing has already left. From now on, seeing beans is like seeing your beloved, holding beans like pearls in your hand.
A pair of red beans are planted in front of the building, pitying the wind and rain in spring and the cold at night. Tears pull back the soft branches, and the moon moves the shadows of the trees to look at the mountains.
The spring silkworms will die before the fragrant silk is exhausted. The red bean tree grows year after year. The two trees hugged each other to form one tree, the branches intertwined and the leaves were green and smoky.
The yellow birds sing and the white butterflies dance, and the orchids accompany you and protect you. Tongguan blows the rose wind gently, and the love sky spreads golden dew.
In the dream, stars fell to the ground, and there were countless red bean knots on the branches. Bless all the lovers in the world, I want to whisper with my red lips.
I came to visit the branches in the cold winter, and it was a pleasure to return to Guo for a picture exhibition. The beans are like danxia, ??the flowers are like snow, and the poems I have written before are like pearls.
Have a rest while chatting in front of the tree, the old man with beautiful eyebrows talks about legends. I turned my tears into red bean songs and talked about Moji's lovesickness poems.
There are many worries and complaints among the quarrels. Don’t forget Moji’s advice when picking things up. Ande spreads love all over the world, and the whirling red beans plant in Eden.
3. Creative background:
Visited Wuxi in 2001 and was rewarded with the Wuxi red bean tree. It is said that the tree was planted by Xiao Tong, the prince of Liang Zhaoming, for more than 1,000 years. Originally two trees, the two trunks hugged each other and merged into one tree, with the upper branches still divided into two. The old Wenxuan Building nearby has been destroyed and no trace remains. It's cold in the year, all the leaves have fallen off, and the roots are as knotted as a horned dragon. There are pictures of red bean trees and poems by former sages hanging on the corridor, which enriched my knowledge. After listening to the old man telling the romantic legend of Prince Zhaoming, it was so sad and moving that I had the idea to write "Red Bean Song". After many days of preparation, it was finally ready to be written. During the Spring Festival of 2002, I had a lot of free time and my life was in full swing. The legend has inspired me, and I can tell things according to my imagination. The only thing that is true or false is the word "love".
4. Appreciation:
(1) A long ancient poem should be like the nine bends of the Yellow River, with twists and turns, stirring the heart and touching people's hearts. Twist and twists do not mean that there is no forward development, nor does it mean that there is no momentum of rapid flow, but every twist and turn is for the next step of development, the flow of momentum, and eventually the general trend. Twists and turns means that things and situations are in the process of development and change. One wave is not over, another wave is rising, the flowers are bright and the willows are dark, it is complicated and confusing. It is the dynamic beauty that entices people to follow. Give people a long-lasting aftertaste. Let’s take “Red Bean Song” as an example.
(2) Hongdou Girl is the protagonist of this love story. She is the embodiment of a pure and beautiful woman who is loyal to love and selfless. She hopes that everyone in the world will love each other sincerely like her. Her appearance was unusual. They met by chance when Crown Prince Xiao Lang was enjoying the spring scenery in Qingjiao "after the new rain during the Qingming Festival". In the early spring in the south of the Yangtze River, the beautiful orioles and flowers and willows in every village are naturally charming. But in this youthful Jiangnan, there is a young girl with even more charming brilliance. This solemn and rich color highlights the unusual appearance of Hongdou Girl. How do you think she is different?
"Danglong's daughter is near the front stream, wearing apricot red clothes and green poplar branches." Danglong, you can see its simplicity, red and green, and its delicateness. This is so rare. Because the two opposites are integrated into one, it is not easy to blend naturally.
The plain hands and bright eyes see its purity, and the shy orioles with clear songs see its beauty. How can pure beauty coupled with a melodious singing voice not impress people?
(3) "I am named Hongdou because of my love for red beans. I do not admire prosperity but only value love." It seems that before Hongdou Girl, there was a legend about the meaning of red beans. The girl had heard about it and knew about it, so she named herself Hongdou. It's very chic. It illustrates her interests, sentiments, and character. Before her, red beans may have symbolized men farming and women weaving, or the cowherd and weaver girl, indicating that she is a hard-working and simple woman who values ??love and righteousness. "Not emphasizing prosperity but emphasizing love" is truly based and is not a false boast. So far, the beauty of Hongdou Girl has been shaped with a few words and words.
No wonder even the prince Xiao Lang fell in love with her! But what is the fate? What is the result of this love? So sad! The author makes a strong twist here, and there is a mixture of sadness and joy, and eternal regret: "If you get sick, you will never be able to survive"! After all, Hongdou Girl was an ordinary girl from the Han family. She was "humble and had no way to knock on the golden door." She shed tears of lovesickness and passed away forever! She used her blood, tears and life to practice and fulfill the promise she made during her lifetime: only love! At this point, the matter is over. But no. Mr. Liu Zheng regarded this as a new starting point for "Red Bean Song". Before her death, the red bean girl bequeathed a pair of lovesick red beans, which symbolized her lovesickness, blood and tears, to her sweetheart. The image of "a pair of red beans wrapped in a mandarin duck handkerchief" is so rich and touching, it is a symbol of life despite death. Xiao Lang planted "a pair of red beans in front of the building" and "the red bean tree grows year after year." This turned into eternity. Further down, Xiao Lang died before he could finish his lovesickness, and the two trees hugged each other to form one tree. His true feelings moved heaven and earth. Protected by the butterfly bamboo and watered by the golden dew, Hong Dou's true feelings not only became eternal, but also expanded and developed. "There are countless red bean knots on the top of the tree. Blessings for all lovers in the world. They want to open their red lips and whisper." They hope that there will no longer be tragedies like theirs in the world. On this basis, the poet sang a magnificent song with profound meaning: "Ande spreads love in the world, whirling red beans plant in Eden"! Reach the highest and most beautiful state. Thinking back on it, how could the song be as beautiful as it is if it were not such a flow and convolution? This is the author's effort and arrangement. It should be noted that "Red Bean Song" is originally a long poem composed by the author after many days of preparation! "Legends inspire me, and they can be used as they wish. The only ones that are true and true are just words of love."
