Yuege of Emei Mountain
Tang Dynasty: Li Bai
Emei Mountain is in the autumn of the first half of the month, and it is reflected in the Pingqiang River. ?
At night, Qingxi went to the Three Gorges, and Sijun did not see Yuzhou.
In front of the majestic Mount Emei, there is a half-moon hanging. On the flowing Pingqiang River, the moon is reflected. Set out by boat at night, leave Qingxi and go straight to the Three Gorges. I miss you, but it's hard to meet each other, and I'm reluctant to go to Yuzhou.
Extended data
First, the creative background
This poem comes from Volume 8 of the Complete Works of Li Taibai, which was written by Li Bai when he was young. Emei Mountain is the mountain in the middle of Shu, and it is also the name of Shu. Li Bai is a native of Shu, so Emei Mountain is also the month of hometown. This poem was written by Li Baichu when he was away from Shu, and it was written before the 13th year of Kaiyuan (725).
Second, appreciation
In the poem, five place names are used in succession, and the idea is exquisite and there is no trace. The poet passes through Emei Mountain-Pingqiang River-Qingxi-Three Gorges-Yuzhou in turn, and the poetic scene gradually unfolds a map of a thousand miles of Shu River for readers. Except for the "Emei Mountain Moon", there is almost no more specific description of the scenery in the poem; Apart from the word "Sijun", there is no more lyricism.
However, the artistic image of "Emei Mountain Moon" runs through the whole poetic realm and becomes the catalyst of poetic sentiment. The implication caused by it is quite rich: the mountains and the moon are accompanied by Wan Li, which can be seen every night, making the feeling of "missing you" deeper and deeper. The bright moon is approachable and unattainable, and it is a symbol of missing friends. Wherever the moon is sung, it is intoxicating to express the feelings of thinking of friends in the river.
Using five place names in a row, you can make a trip in a delicate place, which is not only heroic, but also homesick. The language flow is natural, just like "clear water leaves hibiscus, and natural carving".
