Seven Laws: Lacquer Night
Author: Wei Meng.
The mountains divide the sky, and the trees raise their heads into the ink.
There are water ghosts hidden in the sound of flowing water, and hidden immortals in the depths of the breeze.
Chang'e thanked Wu Gangle, and Hou Yisi's wife and weaver girl.
This night, the cowherd looks up alone, and tonight there is no chance to cut Gui.
Note: This poem is composed with a new rhyme.
This song "Seven Laws: Lacquer Night" is set in the background, showing the silence and mystery of the dark night, and then sighing with emotion.
The first couplet, "The mountains raise their eyes to divide the sky, and ten thousand trees raise their heads into the ink." It depicts the night when the mountains are barely distinguishable from the sky, and the trees are as black as ink in the darkness. This sentence has a broad vision and strong imagination, and depicts the mountains and forests in the night realistically.
"The sound of flowing water hides water ghosts, and the deep breeze hides immortals." "Elements of folklore are used to add to the mystery of the night. There seems to be a water ghost hidden in the sound of flowing water, and there is a faint haunt of earth fairies in the depths of the breeze, and people's imagination and depiction of self-comfort while being afraid of the paint night are not only in line with the atmosphere of the night, but also have a surreal romanticism.
Neck couplet: "Chang'e thanked Wu Gangle, and Hou Yi Si's wife and weaver girl Huan." "The stories of ancient mythological figures, Chang'e, Wu Gang, Hou Yi and the Weaver Girl are introduced, and the scene at night adds a rich cultural connotation. This way of borrowing myths,to express that this is a night when there is no moon, only stars. Hou Yi couldn't see his wife on the moonThe Weaver Girl can shine on her husband alone, a few happy and a few sad. At the same time, it shows the rich cultural heritage of this poem.
Tail couplet: "This night the cowherd looks up alone, and tonight there is no chance to cut Gui." The allusion of Cowherd and Wu Ganghua Gui was mentioned, and it was expressedIn this dark night, only the Cowherd can look up at the stars and miss the Weaver Girl, and Wu Gang (referring to other people) can only get off work, have nothing to do, and rest early. The clever use of allusions here makes the emotional expression of the poem deeper.
While depicting the night scene, the whole poem incorporates rich imagination and cultural elements, showing the poet's profound cultural heritage and romantic feelings. The poem has beautiful language, rich imagery, and deep emotion, and is an excellent seven-character poem.
