Gao Shi, a famous poet of the Tang Dynasty. The word Dafu is a native of Cangxian County, Hebei Province.
He grew up poor. As an adult, I tried and failed. Before the age of forty-seven, life was poor and poor, but poor and strong, unswerving, unswerving, hard study, and dedicated to serving the country.
At the age of forty-seven, he was finally recommended to be a minor civil servant, but he did not want to be with the light, so he soon abandoned his post. After the decisive abandonment of literature and martial arts, he followed the famous general of the Tang Dynasty, Longyoujiedu, and Ge Shuhan. At this time, the "Anshi Rebellion" broke out, and after more than ten years, he made many achievements in large and small counterinsurgency wars, and finally transformed from a poet to a generation of famous generals.
From Tang Xuanzong to Tang Suzong and Tang Dynasty Zong, three generations of emperors have been very kind to him, and his career has been very smooth, becoming a model of late blooming.
He was as famous as Cen Shen, another poet of the Tang Dynasty, and was called "Gao Cen";He, together with Wang Changling, Cen Shen, and Wang Zhilian, were collectively known as the "Four Great Frontier Poets" of the Tang Dynasty;He and Li Bai and Du Fu, two superstars in the poetry world, are also known as the "Three Sages";"The Old Tang Book: The Biography of Gao Shi" said: "Since the Tang Dynasty, the poet has attained only the suitability. It can be seen that Gao Shi is by no means an idle person.
The following is a re Xi production of Gao Shi's famous masterpiece "Farewell Dong Da", the original text is as follows:
Thousands of miles of yellow clouds and daylight,
The north wind blows geese and snow.
Don't worry about the road ahead without a confidant,
Who in the world doesn't know you?
The gist of the poem is:
In that cold winter, two talented people, one with a talent, the other left his hometown, the twilight was cold, and the wanderer was there, and the two of them said goodbye.
At this time, the yellow clouds cover the sky and cover the sun, stretching, thousands of miles continuously, the sun is no longer dazzling, but a little dim.
The howling north wind has just sent away flocks of geese, and brought heavy snow one after another, as if hearing a strong man's howl.
In the face of parting, Gao Shi was still full of pride, patted Dong Da on the shoulder with extraordinary grace, and said loudly: Brother, you go forward boldly!Don't worry about the road ahead, there is no confidant, who in the world doesn't know you?
This is a farewell poem, written in the sixth year of Xuanzong Tianbao in the Tang Dynasty, the object of farewell is the famous pianist Dong Tinglan, Dong Tinglan is the eldest in the family, so it is also called "Dong Da".
Hu music was prevalent in the Tang Dynasty, but there were not many people who could really appreciate the lyre. Cui Jue has a poem: "The five tones on the seven strings are cold, and this art bosom friend has been difficult since ancient times." Only Henan Fang Cilu has always taken pity on Dong Tinglan. ”
At that time, Dong Da was forced to leave the capital because he was implicated by his master, and Gao Shi was also very unwilling, wandering everywhere, lacking food and clothing.
In the winter of that year, Gao Shi and Dong Tinglan met in Suiyang, now Shangqiu, Henan. The two cherish each other, regard each other as bosom friends, and are inseparable from each other. So, Gao Shi wrote "Don't Dong Da's Second Song". This poem is his first.
Don't worry about the road ahead, who in the world doesn't know you?When Gao Shi was about to break up, he did not write about the inextricable feelings of parting, but passionately encouraged his friends to embark on the journey and meet the future.
The reason why this poem is outstanding, spread throughout the Tang Dynasty, and famous through the ages is because Gao Shi expresses his heart directly, reveals his true feelings, and has the spirit of self-improvement, as well as his unswerving tenacity, so he can add color to the heroes and wipe away the tears of the wanderers.
It is the poet's inner depression that gushes out that he makes the parting words so thoughtful and unswerving, so that the most simple language is refined into a poetry that is clear and pure, affectionate and inspiring.
