Su Shi

In autumn, on July 16th and 16th, Su Shi and his friends went boating in Chibi. The breeze blows gently and the water can't reach the surface. Holding wine as a guest, reciting the poem "Bright Moon" and singing the chapter "My Fair". Not long after, the moon rose from Dongshan, hovering between the Big Dipper and the cow. Milky white fog across the river, clear water. Let the boat float on the boundless river and cross the boundless river. Vast as the wind in Feng Xu, I don't know where it ends; Floating like an independent world, feathering into a fairy.

[Translation] In the autumn of Ren Xu (for details, please refer to the related information link /view/ 13689.htm), on July 6, 2008, my guests and I went boating in Chibi to enjoy the scenery. The cool breeze is blowing slowly, which is refreshing. The river is calm without waves. I raised my glass to persuade the guests to drink. I read aloud the poem "The Moon is Out" and the guests sang to make peace with it. After a while, the bright moon rose slowly from Dongshan and hung high between Dou Su and Niu Su. Water mist permeates the whole river in moonlight, and water and sky are the same color. Let the boat float on the vast river like reed leaves, and the wind blows from my ear, as if flying in the air, I don't know where it will drift; It's refreshing to be outside the cloud nine We are almost leaving this world, flying high and becoming immortal.

note:

The poem of the bright moon: refers to the "moon rising" in the Book of Songs Chen Feng. This poem was conceived in the moonlight. One refers to the sentences in Cao Cao's "Short Songs", such as "Clear as the bright moon, when can you forget it" and "How many stars are there in the bright moon, and birds fly south".

My tender chapter: The Moon Comes Out. The first chapter says, "When the moon comes out, it will light up. If the bright person looks after it, Shu Yao will correct it, and he will be tired." Correction means graceful and restrained, so this chapter is called "graceful and restrained chapter". In the first chapter of The Book of Songs, Nan Zhou's Guanluo is "My Fair Lady, My Gentleman".

At this time, he was very happy to drink, slapping the ship's rail with his hand and singing. The song says: "Gui Gui is like a blue paddle, striking the sky and tracing the streamer. I am pregnant, and I hope that beauty is on one side. " If a guest has oral sex, he will make peace with him as the song says. Its voice is full of resentment, longing, crying and complaining, and the lingering sound is endless. It can make the dragon dance in the deep valley and make the widow in the lonely boat cry.

At this time, I was in high spirits, so I knocked on the boat and sang, "Paddles made of osmanthus wood paddle the clear river and meet the floating moonlight on the river. My feelings are far away, and I miss the people I admire, far away on that day. " Among the guests, some can play the flute, and they will sing along. The flute sounds like resentment, nostalgia, sobbing and talking. After blowing, the lingering sound is long. If it continues like a slender silk thread, it can almost make the dragon hidden in the abyss dance and the widow in the lonely boat cry.

Perilla was very sad and sat in danger and asked the guest, "What is it?" The guest said, "There are few stars on the moon, and blackbirds fly south." Isn't this a poem by Cao Mengde? Looking at Xiakou in the west and Wuchang in the east, the mountains and rivers are misty and gloomy. Isn't this because Meng Zhizhi was trapped in Zhou Lang? Fang Qi broke Jingzhou and went down to Jiangling, downstream to the east. He was thousands of miles long, wearing a flag, drinking wine and singing poems across the river, and became a hero in the world. Now, where is he? My son and I are fishing in Zhu Jiang. We are friends with fish, shrimp and elk. Driving a boat, holding a bottle that belongs to each other. It's a drop in the ocean to send a mayfly into the earth. Mourn a moment in my life and admire the infinity of the Yangtze River. Fly with the flying fairy, hold the bright moon, and grow up. Knowing that it is impossible to get it suddenly, I hate it. "

I was very sad after listening to the flute. I adjusted my clothes, sat up straight and asked the guest, "Why is your flute so sad?" The guest said, "There are few stars in the moon, and birds fly south." Isn't this a poem by Cao Cao? Looking at Xiakou in the west and Wuchang in the east, Chibi is surrounded by mountains and rivers, with lush vegetation. Isn't this where Cao Cao was defeated by Zhou Yu? When he occupied Jingzhou and captured Jiangling, he went down the river and went east. The warships stretched for thousands of miles and the colorful flags covered the sky. He drank in the face of the Yangtze River and recited poems with a spear in his hand. That was the hero at that time, but where is it now? But you and I are fishing and firewood in small and medium-sized rivers, with fish and shrimp as partners and elk as friends, driving a boat with such a simple gourd cup and persuading each other to drink. We are like ephemera by the water, living dismally between heaven and earth, as small as a grain of rice in the sea. Sigh the shortness of our lives and envy the endless Yangtze River. I really hope that we can soar with the gods and live forever with the bright moon. Knowing that this idea was impossible, I had to pin my feelings on a flute and play it in the sad autumn wind. "

Perilla said, "Do you know my husband's water and the moon? The deceased is like this, but he has never been there; If you are full of emptiness, the dead will not ebb and flow. Gai must view it from its changers, then heaven and earth can't be in an instant; From the same point of view, things are infinite. What do you envy? Besides, between heaven and earth, everything has its own owner, not mine, so I will take it for nothing. However, the breeze on the river and the bright moon in the mountains are empty to the ear and beautiful when they meet. They are inexhaustible and inexhaustible treasures of the creator. My son and I are suitable. "

I said to the guest, "Do you know the river and the bright moon? This river always flows from west to east day and night, but not fade away crosses it. The moon is round and short, but in the end it has neither lost nor increased. Then look at all this from the changing side, then everything in the world has never been static for a moment. On the other hand, everything in the world and us are endless. What is there to envy? Besides, between heaven and earth, everything has its own master. If it weren't for all my things, I couldn't take any of them. Only the breeze on the river becomes music to the ears, and the bright moon in the mountains becomes scenery to the eyes; No one is forbidden to take them and enjoy them endlessly. This is the infinite treasure of nature, which you and I can enjoy together. "

So the companion smiled happily, wiped the cup clean again and poured it again. All the dishes have been eaten, and the cups and plates are in a mess. Sleeping on the boat, hugging each other, I know the horizon has turned white.

The guest smiled happily, washed the glass and filled it again. I don't know when all the vegetables and fruits have been eaten, and empty cups and plates are scattered all over the floor. My guest and I fell asleep on the boat, and before we knew it, the east was turning white and the sky was almost bright.
