Hsinchu is a seven-character quatrain written by Zheng Xie, a poet in the Qing Dynasty. The first two sentences describe that bamboo shine on you is better than blue, and the growth of the new force needs the active support of the older generation, expressing the gratitude of the younger generation to the support of the elders; The last two sentences are prospects to show that the new forces will be stronger. The whole poem expresses the dialectical thought that the waves behind the Yangtze River push forward the waves. The language is simple, but it is rich in philosophy. The poems are as follows:
Hsinchu
Qing Zheng Xie
Hsinchu is higher than the old bamboo branches, and it is supported by the old cadres.
next year, there will be new students, and ten dragons and grandchildren will go around Fengchi.
Poetic:
The new bamboo can be higher than the old bamboo branches, all thanks to the support of the old branches.
If more bamboos are born next year, they will grow taller and straighter and surround the pond.
This is a poem that uses the growth of Hsinchu as a metaphor to describe the interdependence between the old and the new in nature and human society and the universal law of metabolism. The whole poem shows that the latecomers come from behind, and shine on you is superior to Blue because of the foundation laid by the former and the active support of the ancestors. The poem expresses the dialectical thought similar to that of Liu Yuxi, a poet in the Tang Dynasty, that is, "Fang Lin's new leaves urge Chen Ye, and the waves before flowing water make the waves behind" and "the waves behind the Yangtze River push the waves before".
