"How much sadness can you have? "Spring water flows eastward" is a famous sentence in Li Yu's Yu Meiren. "One River, Spring Flows East" uses water as a metaphor for sorrow, which shows that Wang Yang, who is worried like spring water, is unrestrained. Another example is the spring water, which keeps flowing day and night. ? Sorrow is like rushing out of a canyon to the sea.
As a monarch, Li Yu is undoubtedly a failure; As a poet, he achieved great success. This "Young Beauty" is a masterpiece that has been told for ages. He broke through the tradition of five pronouns in the late Tang Dynasty, and developed Ci from an entertainment tool of flowers and moonshine to a lyric style of singing life.
The whole poem Yu Meiren:
When is the moon in spring and autumn? How much do you know about the past? The small building was easterly again last night, and the old country could not bear to look back on the moon.
Carved fences and jade bricks should still exist, but Zhu Yan changed them. How much sadness can you have? Like a river flowing eastward.
When will this year end? We know how many things happened in the past! Last night, the spring breeze blew from the small building again. How can I bear the pain of missing my hometown in this bright night?
Carefully carved railings and jade steps should still be there, but the people I miss are aging. Ask me how much sadness I have in my heart, just like this endless spring water rolling east.
