It seems that this star was not last night. What do you mean, who do you stand for at midnight?

Interpretation: The stars tonight are not the stars last night. Who am I to stand in the wind until midnight?

Origin: Love by Huang Jingren in Qing Dynasty.

Original text:

Several times, I sat under the flowers and played the flute, and the red wall of Han Yin looked into the distance.

Like this star is not last night, for whom the wind and dew stand in the middle of the night.

The lingering thoughts are exhausted, and the heart is peeling bananas.

In March and May of 1935, that poor glass of wine not fade away.

Extended data:

The first couplet "played the flute under the flowers several times, and the Han Yin Red Wall looked ahead". Accompanied by the bright moon, blowing flowers, a beautiful encounter. But this is just the beginning. Although the red wall where the Iraqis are located is close at hand, it is as far away as the silver man in the sky.

The second couplet "This star seems to be different from last night, and the wind dew stands in the middle of the night for whom." This is the most admirable couplet. Yes, tonight is not last night. Last night's stars recorded the romantic story of playing flute under the flowers. But today's stars only accompany sad people. The poet is sober, he knows that the past cannot be repeated, and it is precisely because of this sobriety that he has fallen into deeper despair.

The third triple is "lingering thoughts, heartbreaking and peeling bananas." This sentence can be compared with Li Shangyin's untitled poem "Spring silkworms die, and night candles mourn". Spring silkworms spin silk and wrap themselves up, just like poets themselves, and surround themselves with heavy thoughts. Silkworm silks and cocoons die, while red candle tears die. And death, naturally, is the most desperate ending in the world. "Banana" is also a bitter image. Li Shangyin's poem "Gift" has the sentence "Banana does not show lilac knots, but the spring breeze is sad".

Tail couplet "In March and May of 1935, the poor glass of wine never disappeared". The tail couplet echoes the first couplet. In March and May of 35, it was naturally a thing of "sitting down for a few times under the flower", and the wine at that time had already turned into bitter wine tonight. And this bitterness can never be eliminated. Because the poet can't miss it, he can't break through the gap between the past and reality.
