First, the original poem
Takeishi
Author: Zheng Xie (Qing Dynasty)
Bamboo is not relaxed at all, its roots are firmly embedded in the cracks in the rocks.
After thousands of tortures and blows, it is still strong, whether it is the southeast wind or the northwest wind in winter, it can bear it and will still be tough and straight.
Secondly, poetry translation.
Firmly adhere to the castle peak and not relax, originally deeply rooted in the crevices.
After many trials and tribulations, the bones are still strong and can blow the east and west and the north and south winds.
Third, the appreciation of works
This poem is an inscription, inscribed on the author Zheng Banqiao's own bamboo and stone drawings. In praising the tenacity and tenacity of Yanzhu, this poem implies that the author despises the tenacity of the secular world.
The first sentence of the poem: "Insist that the castle peak will not relax", first of all, a towering bamboo firmly grasps the image of the gap in the castle peak and presents it to the readers. A word "bite" symbolizes bamboo. Biting is an active action that requires strength. It not only depicts the scene of bamboo climbing to the green hills, but also shows the spirit of bamboo not afraid of difficulties, fighting against nature and tenacious survival. Following the previous sentence, the second sentence "Rooted in broken rocks" tells us that the foundation of bamboo standing proudly on the green hills lies in its deep roots in broken rocks.
Bamboo in Zheng Banqiao's poems and paintings is often inseparable from "stone". Sometimes, the stone constitutes the opposite of bamboo, such as "draw a bamboo branch and insert a stone. The stone is one foot higher than the bamboo branch. Although one foot makes it higher, I will lift my strength for many years"; Sometimes the stone becomes the background of bamboo, for example, "The autumn wind passed Xiaoxiang last night, and I was crazy when I touched the stone through the forest;" Only bamboo branches are not afraid, but they can fight a thousand games. "In this poem, the bamboo and stone are integrated into one mass, and there is no such thing as a stiff mountain green. These two poems also illustrate a simple and profound philosophy: deep foundation and strong power.
With the foreshadowing of the first two sentences, it naturally leads to the following two sentences: "I am still strong after many trials, and I am willing to face the wind in the east, west, north and south." The bamboo in this poem has one characteristic. Not solitary bamboo, not static bamboo, but rock bamboo, wind bamboo. In Zheng Banqiao's poems and paintings, bamboo is often a symbol of noble conduct and tenacious will, while wind is often a representative of evil forces, such as "the autumn wind passed Xiaoxiang last night" as mentioned above, or "a gust of wind rolled back and bamboo branches rose into the sky. Sweeping clouds and fog is really my business, and sweeping the floor is not enough. "
In this poem, bamboo is also subject to "east, west, north and south winds" all year round. However, because it is deeply rooted in the rock, it is still firm and tenacious. What kind of wind can do nothing. The poet used the words "thousand" and "ten thousand" to write the indomitable, calm and confident expression of bamboo, which can be said that the artistic conception of the whole poem suddenly emerged. At this time, what stands in front of us is no longer a few ordinary bamboos. What we feel is an indomitable vitality and perseverance, and all this is contained in the rustling bamboo.
Extended data
Bamboo Stone is a seven-character quatrain written by Zheng Xie, a painter in Qing Dynasty. This poem is a poem about bamboo. The poet praised not the softness of bamboo, but its fortitude. The first two sentences praise the inner spirit of bamboo rooted in broken rocks. The word "bite" at the beginning is extremely powerful and vivid, which fully expresses Zhu Jin's resolute character.
The first sentence uses "don't relax" to supplement the word "bite", which shows Zhu Jin's personality. The "broken rock" in the second sentence highlights the tenacity of bamboo vitality. The last two sentences went on to write that the harsh objective environment honed and tested bamboo.
Regardless of the wind and rain, regardless of the frost and snow, the green bamboo still stands proudly. "Thousand blows" and "southeast and northwest winds" are extremely harsh. This poem is a metaphor for people. By praising the strong bamboo in the rock, the author implicitly expresses his noble thoughts and sentiments of never drifting with the tide. The language of the poem is simple and profound.
In Zheng Xie's works, inscribed poems are not only ideological and lyrical in content, but also more artistic and interesting in form. Painting and poetry can fully reflect the artistic interest of "painting and calligraphy are of the same origin" and "painting method is the same", while the traditional painter's inscription and postscript mostly focuses on the blank space of painting and plays a balance role with the picture. However, the inscription and postscript of "Eight Eccentrics in Yangzhou" has been divorced from the inscription and postscript of traditional Chinese painting and literati painting, especially the combination of Zheng Banqiao's calligraphy and painting.
For example, in "Shi Lan Map", Zheng Banqiao skillfully combined poetry with calligraphy and authentic Cao Li seal, and the size was strewn at random, just like "paving the road with stones" on a stone wall, which replaced the method of painting stones, resulting in the beauty of rhythm and rhythm, which just showed the three-dimensional sense and texture beauty of stones in the field, which was better than the method of painting stones alone.
This has become an indispensable expression method, which not only profoundly reveals the characteristics of orchids, but also implies the artistic beauty of noble character, which has the artistic beauty of calligraphy instead of calligraphy. People can not only appreciate the artistic beauty of painting and poetry, but also appreciate the formal beauty of calligraphy art and immerse themselves in poetry.
In addition, in many of Lan Zhushi's paintings, his poems are diverse, unconventional and eclectic, which naturally becomes interesting, makes a good book fit the line, and adds a lot of color to the paintings. The so-called decent style is to conceive according to the actual picture and pay attention to the formal beauty of composition. Therefore, he will write poems on the side, up and down, vertically and horizontally, or between orchids and vines, and observe its shape intermittently, uneven and dense.
Zheng Xie's poems are books and titles, paintings and poems, and poems and paintings. Appreciating the poems in each painting is not only a wonderful reproduction of calligraphy, but also a comprehensive art that makes calligraphy and painting set each other off. The book title and the picture are organically integrated, which constitutes a unified poetry and gives people a comprehensive and perfect artistic enjoyment.
