Time: Wei and Jin Dynasties

Author: Cao Pi

Genre: Yuefu

The autumn wind is bleak and the weather is cold.

Plants are shaken and exposed to frost,

The geese resigned and returned to Nanxiang.

Thinking of a gentleman, wandering heartbroken,

I miss my hometown,

What will you send to each other if you stay for a long time?

A concubine was guarding her room alone,

I can't forget when I'm worried about you.

I don't think my clothes are crying.

Help the piano to sing strings and send them to Qing merchants.

Short songs cannot be long,

The moon shines on my bed.

It's still early in the night,

Penny and Weaver looked at each other from a distance.

Why restrict the river beam?

Translated text

The autumn wind is bleak, the weather is freezing, the plants and trees are dying, and first frost has been in the Millennium.

Yan Qun resigned, and the geese flew south. I miss my lover who travels far away, and I am extremely sad inside.

I miss my hometown when I think about it. Why did you stay so long?

I keep the boudoir alone, and miss the gentleman when I am sad. I can't forget it.

Unconsciously, tears fell and wet my clothes.

I took the guqin and fiddled with the strings, but my heart was very sad. The short song sang softly, as if it were still broken.

The bright moonlight shines on my empty bed, the milky way flows west, and the sleepless night is long.

Cowherd and Weaver Girl, facing each other from a distance. What crime did you commit? It was blocked by Tianhe.

Injection and release

(1) this article belongs to "harmony, flat tone". Yan is a northern border, and there is a constant need for defense, so most of Yan's songs are parting.

2 shake off: wither.

3 mandarin fish: swan.

4 promise: the feeling of emptiness. Stay long: stay long. The last sentence assumes that the other person is bound to miss home, which is doubtful because he does not return.

⑤ Shang Qing: Music name. The syllables of Shang Qing Dynasty are very short, so the next sentence says "short songs can't be long".

The night is still early: when the night is deep and not over. The ancients measured time by observing the stars. The scenery described in this poem is the night in early autumn, and there are cows and women on both sides of the Milky Way, which is the zenith in early autumn evening. At this time, the Milky Way should point southwest. Now, when we say that "the stars are flowing westward", it means that the milky way is turning westward, indicating that the night is already deep.

⑦ Er: refers to morning glory and weaver girl. He Liang: A bridge over the river. Legend has it that Petunia and Weaver Girl can only meet each other on July 7th every year across the Tianhe River, and the black magpie has built a bridge between them.
