Li Bai's Annotation and Translation in Early Winter Tang Dynasty

Tang Libai

A frozen pen is lazy to write new poems, a cold stove and a glass of good wine are warm.

Drunk to see the ink flowers and the moon white, suddenly suspected that the snow was full of Qiancun.

Precautions:

1. Frozen pen: The ancients dipped the brush into ink, and the temperature dropped, which made the pen hard.

2. Cold stove: a fire in winter.

3. Time and temperature: sometimes, often; Warm, warm. Good wine is often warm.

4. Ink flower: refers to the ink spot pattern on the inkstone.

5. Qiancun: It should be the name of a mountain village.

Translation:

On that day in beginning of winter, the weather was very cold, and the ink and pen were frozen. I was just too lazy to write new poems. The wine on the stove is always warm. Zuiyan looked at the ink stain pattern on the inkstone under the moon, and thought it was heavy snow falling all over the mountain village.

Extended data:

The "beginning of winter" solar term is June 7th or 8th every year, 165438+ 10 month. In ancient China, beginning of winter was the beginning of winter. Our country has a vast territory. All winters don't start at the same time except the coastal areas of South China where there is no winter all the year round and the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau where there is no summer in winter.

From these poems, we can also feel that ancient winter was much colder than now. But it makes people feel homesick for a wandering poet.

Li Bai, a poet, binge drinks in winter, and his novel beginning of winter is full of novel and unrestrained poetry: on the day of beginning of winter, the weather is cold and the pen and ink are frozen.

Just lazy not to write new poems, but interested in the wine on the stove. In this cold and silent winter night, only Li Bai will have such a leisurely and free atmosphere and strange imagination.
