From the first song of "The Fisherman's Song" by Zhang Zhihe in the Tang Dynasty
Original text:
In front of Xisai Mountain, egrets fly, peach blossoms flow and mandarin fish are fat.
Green bamboo hats, green coir raincoats, the slanting wind and drizzle do not need to return.
This poem describes the beautiful scenery of the water town in spring, creates the image of a fisherman, praises the fisherman's life, and expresses the author's love for nature.
The first sentence is "The egret flies in front of Xisai Mountain". "In front of Xisai Mountain" points out the location. "Egret" is a symbol of leisure. The egret is written to fly freely, which sets off the leisurely contentment of the fisherman. The second sentence "peach blossoms and flowing water, mandarin fish are fat" means: the peach blossoms are in full bloom, the river water is rising sharply, and the mandarin fish are growing fat at this time. The contrast between peach red and water green here represents the scenery of lakes and mountains in front of Xisai Mountain in late spring, and exaggerates the living environment of the fisherman. Three or four sentences, "Green bamboo hats, green coir raincoats, no need to return in the slanting wind and drizzle" describe the fisherman's mood when fishing. The fisherman, wearing a green bamboo hat and green coir raincoat, was so happy in the slanting wind and drizzle that he forgot to return home. "Slanting wind" refers to a gentle breeze. The whole poem has bright colors, lively language, and vivid expression
