The original text of the poem is as follows: the grass eaves are long and quiet without moss, and flowers and trees are planted by hand. One water protects the field and surrounds the green, and two mountains send green.
The translation of the whole poem is as follows: the thatched courtyard is clean without a trace of moss because of frequent cleaning. Rows of flowers and trees are filled with flower beds, all planted by their owners. A small river outside the courtyard protects farmland and surrounds green fields. Two doors pushed open by two green hills brought a piece of green.
Appreciation of the whole poem:
The first two sentences praise the tranquility of Yang's compound. "Mao Yan" refers to the courtyard. "Quiet" means clean. How to write it clean? The poet rejects all plain descriptions and only uses the word "no moss", which is really unique. Why do you see it? It is rainy in the south of the Yangtze River and rainy in early summer, which is more conducive to the growth of moss than other seasons. Moreover, moss likes darkness, always grows in secluded places, and is more difficult to sweep than other weeds. Now there is no moss in the yard, doesn't it mean it is everywhere, all the time? Here, the humble image, because of the proper use of words, has an unusually rich expressive force. "Flowers and trees" are the most striking scenery in the courtyard. Because there are many varieties, we should plant them in separate beds. In this way, the word "Chengqi" not only shows the neatness of flower beds, but also strongly implies the richness of flowers and trees, which are both neat and not monotonous.
This quiet environment is intoxicating, so when the poet's eyes move from the flowers and trees in the courtyard to the mountains and rivers outside the courtyard, his thoughts will be so distant and elegant, so the following epigram was born. The scenery in front of the door is a river, a farmland and two green hills. In the poet's eyes, mountains and rivers also have feelings for this noble master. The poet personifies "one water" and "two mountains" into intimate images full of human feelings. Curved rivers surround lush farmland, just like a mother protecting her children with her hands. The words "protection" and "around" seem so affectionate. The castle peak in front of the door saw that the yard was so neat and tidy, and the owner loved beauty so much, and they also rushed to the owner's yard to add color: pushing the door and pushing in, offering a piece of green. The poet left a famous sentence with a stroke of genius.
