The meaning of clothes in Gregorian calendar

Ah! If a baby boy is born, let him sleep in a big bed carved with sandalwood, let him pack up beautiful clothes and find beautiful hostesses for him to play with. Look at how loud his cry is. In the future, he will spread it all over his knees and become the monarch or prince of my room!

Ah! If your daughter is born, let her sleep on the floor at the foot of the palace, give her a baby to wear, and find a ceramic rotating spool for her to play with. I hope she doesn't make trouble, don't get in the way, and arrange meals around the pot every day, so that knowing the law won't bother her parents!

Creation background

This is a song to congratulate the completion of the aristocratic palace of slave owners in the Western Zhou Dynasty.

Whether this poem is a word of "worry", a song of "falling out of England" or a song of "swallows" has different opinions. Falling is completion, joy is celebration, and it is a song to celebrate the inauguration ceremony of the palace. Of course, you can also hold an inauguration ceremony with a ceremony of offering sacrifices to your ancestors and blood. Therefore, this is a song sung by slave owners and nobles in the Western Zhou Dynasty when the palace was completed.

Make an appreciative comment

The whole poem consists of nine chapters, the first, sixth, eighth and ninety-four chapters with seven sentences, and the second, third, fourth, fifth and seventy-five chapters with five sentences. Uneven sentence patterns make people feel neither stagnant nor bloated, which is quite distinctive in Song Ya's chapters.

Taking the whole poem as a whole, focusing on the description of palace buildings, interwoven narration, scenery description and lyricism, can be concrete, vivid and distinctive. Although it is of little ideological value, it is still a masterpiece of Song Ya's poetry.
