Maple bridge at night

Zhang Ji

Moon Wudiao frost, Jiang Feng Yuhuo sleep on the wooded.

Gushan outside the Hanshan Temple, the night bell to the passenger ship.

The poem with a sad word together. The first two sentences use a series of images: falling moon, crying black, sky full of frost, Jiang Feng, fishing, no man, resulting in a rich aesthetic mood. Described both autumn night waterfront scenery, but also expressed the author homesickness. After the image of the two sentences of emptiness: city, temple, boat, bell, is an ethereal Kuang Yuan mood. No night at night, the ugly thing, and catches fireworks, frost can be felt; the night is half silent, but heard Wu cry Zhongming. So clear and off control, silent and sound of the background, so that the King are the King of the scene, the sound is all the intent of the sound, mood sparsely scattered, muddy fade away. A wisp of touch off the point was dyed hazy Meaningful, swaying in the night sky in Suzhou City, where the bridge water, a temple to add a city of the eternal style, attracting the dream of all ages. Thus spread throughout the ages, but also left the "Gushan outside the Hanshan Temple, midnight bells to the passenger ship," the eternal phrase.

Moon Wuti frost sky

However, after researching, it was found that many people misunderstood the poem during its circulation. First of all, this poem is not what some people think is written by Zhang Jiluo. According to "Biography of Tang Tzu," Volume III records, Zhang Ji in the "Tianbao twelve years rite assistant Yang Jun and the first", which means that the examination of the Jinshi. And in January 14 Fourteen years of the Tiananmen Massacre broke out, Tianbao fifteen years in June, Xuanzong castigated Ben Shu. Many of the scholars have fled to a more stable southern turmoil, including Zhang Jizhi. One autumn night, the poet Bozhou Maple Bridge outside Suzhou. Jiangnan Water Township autumn night beautiful scenery, attracting this traveler with sorrow, so that he experienced a taste of meaningful poetic beauty, wrote the first poem in the mood Qingyuan.

Second, some of the images in the poem do not coincide with what people commonly think. According to contemporary textual research, "moonlight" is not the moon has fallen or will not fall, but the name of the village or bridge, "Wuti" is not crow night cry, but Wuti Hill or Wuti town. Similarly, "Jiang Feng" is not a maple tree on the waterfront, but "Jiangqiao" and "Fengqiao" collectively. In addition, some people even think that "fishing" is actually a fishing partner. "Cold Mountain" refers to the mountain of cold rather than the name of the temple. As a result, the dim moonlight, fishing between the looming maple trees and breathtaking Wuti have ceased to exist, a legend of the Millennium even became so concrete and real, that piece of misty quiet, cool and beautiful Autumn night map of Jiangnan Water also disappeared, leaving only a list of village names or bridge name listed.

This is also the song we know the "Maple Night of the Night" it? Is not everything changed? Admittedly, people still enjoy the kind of mood and flavor they read, albeit misread. Everyone must have remembered a pop song "The Sound of a Tale still" with the following sentence in the lyrics: "Take away a light and let it warm my eyes; leave a truth to let it rest on the edge of the Maple Bridge," " Hanging bells are still beating me sleepless "," Moonlight is always millennium milky way ... ... "The inspiration for this song is clearly derived from the" Maple Night of the Night. " In this sense, more people agree with the poetic sense of misreading. Well, in order to stay that piece of good, we would rather miss this poem forever!
