Chapter 40 The fourth part is gently, leaving "A Night of Emerald and Emerald"

Xu Zhimo's second collection of poems, "A Night in Fei Leng Cui", was written from 1925 to 1926 and published by Xinyue Bookstore in February 1927. "Fei Leng Cui" means Flower City. Xu Zhimo clearly mentioned in the preface of the collection of poems that this collection of poems is dedicated to Lu Xiaoman and is a gift to commemorate their first wedding anniversary.Therefore, this collection of poems is almost the love history of Xu Zhimo and Lu Xiaoman. "A Night in Emerald" was written in 1925 by Xu Zhimo in the Emerald Mountain in Italy. Xu Zhimo expressed a strong and persistent love in the poem "A Night in Emerald and Green".Love to the depths, no complaints or regrets; trapped by love, die by love.

At the beginning of the poem, it focuses on the psychological activities of the lyrical protagonist. From the sadness, anger, and blame caused by the lover's imminent departure in the woman's heart, it reflects the importance of the lover in her life and her love and attachment to the lover. Are you really leaving tomorrow?Then me, then me,... You don't have to worry about it, sooner or later that day will come; If you want to remember me, remember me, Otherwise, forget about this world With me, you don’t have to worry about time and space, Just a dream, a fantasy; Just treat it as the residual red we saw the day before yesterday,

Shouting timidly before the wind, with one petal, Two petals, falling to the ground, causing people to step on it, turning into mud... Alas, it is trampled and turned into mud—it turns into mud and is cleaned up, Only the half-dead are suffering, Looking at the shabby, cumbersome, makes people roll their eyes—— God!Why did you come, why did you come... Leaving is very painful, because the love once was so unforgettable, love melted into her life, love is her life: I can't forget you, the day you come, It's like seeing light in a dark future, You are my sir, my love, my benefactor,

You taught me what life is, what love is, You awaken my stupor and redeem my innocence. How can I know the sky is high and the grass is green without you? You touch my heart, how fast it beats now; Touch my face again, it’s so burnt, thanks to the darkness of the night Can't see; love, I'm out of breath, Kiss me not; I cannot bear this fiery life, This kind of love is unforgettable, and she once again immersed herself in the fiery love experience: These days my soul is like a fire brick Wrought iron, under love's hammer, smash, smash, spark Flying in all directions...I'm dizzy, hold me,

The poet's sudden change of style makes the lyric hero turn from the happy experience of love to the infinite yearning for death, and depicts a very beautiful and intoxicating illusion of "death".She has a deep experience of love, and she died for love in order to realize the good wishes of love freedom and love happiness.Because her wish cannot be realized in the real world, she can only realize it through death, and love is beautiful and eternal because of death: Love, let me here in the quiet garden, Close your eyes, die on your chest, how beautiful! The wind in the white trees overhead, rustling,

Be my mourning song, this breeze, blown from the olive grove, with the scent of pomegranate blossoms, Just took my soul and that firefly, Amorous and courteous fireflies, with them to light the way, I stopped on the bridge of the third ring hole, Listening to you holding my half-warm body here, Call me sadly, kiss me, shake me, smack me,... I just smiled and followed the breeze, Let him lead me, heaven, hell, anywhere, Anyway, losing this loathsome life and realizing this death In love, the death in the center of love, is not better than Five hundred rebirths? ...selfish, I know,

But I don't care... You died with me? Heaven may be a happy world, but hell is not, it is the same as the real world.The fate of being destroyed instead of being pityed by others in this world may be the same fate in hell.To live on earth is the same as to die in heaven: What, not being in a pair is not a complete "love to death", To fly, two pairs of wings need to work together, After entering heaven, we have to take care of them differently. I can't do without you, and you can't do without me; If it's hell, you don't worry if I go alone, You say hell may not be more civilized than this world

(Though I don't believe it,) like me delicate flower, It is hard to guarantee that there will be no more storms, no rain, At that time I called you, but you couldn't hear clearly,— That's not asking for relief and throwing yourself into a mud pit, It's called cold-eyed ghosts colluding with cold-hearted people, Laugh at my fate, laugh at your cowardly carelessness? This is also reasonable, so what should I do? Life is hard, if it is too hard, you will not be free even if you die, I don't want you to sacrifice your future for me... This paradoxical pain of life or death can only be healed by love.She can give up the real world, heaven or hell, but she can't live without love, the kind of true and beautiful love in the world.Lover is her God.Love is everything in her life; love is her belief in life.Therefore, even if she dies unfortunately, she will become a firefly, because her lover's unchanging star is in the sky:

well!You said you are still alive and waiting, waiting for that day! Is there that day? ——You are my confidence; But you have to go at dawn, you really have the heart Lose me and go?I can't keep you, this is life; But this flower, without sunlight, without nectar, If you don't die, you can't avoid the scorching of the valve tip, how pitiful! You can't forget me, love, except in your heart, I have no more life; yes, I listen to you, I wait, I have to wait patiently for the iron tree to bloom; Love, you'll always be a star above my head: If I die unfortunately, I will become a firefly,

In this garden, close to the grass roots, flying darkly, From dusk to midnight, from midnight to dawn, I only wish that there would be no clouds in the sky, so that I could see the sky The unchanging star in the sky is you, I wish you would shine more light for me, across the night, Across the sky, with a little bit of love... The lyrical heroine's intricate emotional thoughts and psychological contradictions intertwined with love and resentment are finally relieved in the persistence and belief in love.Xu Zhimo's "A Night in Emerald and Emerald" is written in the first person to imitate a weak woman. With delicate brushstrokes, he writes about attachment, sorrow, self-pity, gratitude, tenderness, happiness, pain, helplessness, true love, and persistence. All kinds of emotional charms, tactful and lingering step by step, truly and touchingly convey the changing mood of a weak woman on the eve of parting from her lover.The complex thoughts of the lyric hero are also a reflection of the poet's true state of mind at that time.At that time, Xu Zhimo was living in a foreign country. The loneliness of living in a different place, the longing for a distant lover, and the pain of love not being tolerated by society, etc., all combined into his depressed feelings. These, together with his life pursuit and ideal beliefs, constituted The meaning of this poem is unique.This poem has the style of a narrative poem. It expresses complex emotional thoughts in a delicate style, and vividly reproduces the free-flowing psychological activities: it also depicts the thoughts and feelings of the lyric protagonist in meticulous detail.The whole text is written in a plain, almost muttering spoken language, which makes this poem as intimate and real as expressing feelings and pouring out emotions right in front of your eyes.

Xu Zhimo's burning personal emotions, his emotional flames, are fully expressed in the collection of poems "A Night in Emerald and Emerald".All kinds of experiences of love are presented delicately and delicately by his brushstrokes. "A Night in Emerald", "Moaning", "I Come to the Yangtze River to Buy a Lotus Pod", "A Hero Like a God", "The Last Day", "Susu", "Don't Blame My Face Again" , "Watching the Moon", "Lovesickness in Two Places" and so on are all written with affection, intensity and sincerity that make it hard to let go. In "Moaning", Xu Zhimo expresses his yearning for love and the sweetness of embracing love: I would also like to praise this magical universe, I would also like to forget that there are sorrows in the world, Like a plum blossom sparrow that is not tired, Singing at dawn, leaping at dusk;— If she is always by my side like a breeze! I also want my poems to flow like clear water, I also want my heart to float like a fish in a pond; But now the tuition is my heart, Don't ask me about poetry in my spare time? —— God!You don't return her life and freedom for a day! On the balance of life, love is the eternal pursuit.Among all things, only love is the last sustenance. In "The Last Day": In the year when the spring breeze no longer returns, On the day when the dead branches are no longer green, At that time the sky no longer shines, A dark demonic atmosphere pervades The sun, the moon, the starry dead space; On the day when all standards are overthrown, At the time of all revaluation: exposed to the wrath of the last judgment All hypocrisy and vanity and vanity: Naked souls prostrate before the Lord;— I love, at that time you and I don't have to panic anymore, There is no need to complain, to judge, and to hide,—— Your heart and mine are like a snow-white pine flower, Standing tall, joyous, fresh on the green stem of love,— In the presence of the Lord, love is the only glory. In the history of poetry, a long poem with tens of thousands of lines can be buried in the ruthless history with the passing of time, while some exquisite short poems can experience the vicissitudes of history and shine alone.This two-paragraph ten-line poem is unique in the corridor of modern poetry.Although it is written with tenderness and sweetness, it contains freshness: I am a cloud in the sky, Occasionally projected on your wave heart - Don't be surprised, There is no need to rejoice— It disappeared in an instant. You and I meet on the sea of ​​night, You have yours, I have mine, direction; you remember better you forget The mutual light at this rendezvous! Putting such an extremely abstract concept as "accidental" into a symbolic structure, it is full of appeal and philosophy, not only beautifies the jade, but also catches the tongue with endless aftertaste, and the meaning is beyond words.Later, it became the libretto of the old blind man in the fifth act of the script "Bian Kungang" co-written by Xu Zhimo and Lu Xiaoman.After it was composed, it was widely circulated in the society and lasted for a long time. The relationship between you and me is written in a strange and romantic way, blending between cloud shadows and wave hearts, and intersecting in the mutual light of the night.This is what Xu Zhimo wrote to his first lover, Lin Huiyin. It is the memory of the romantic love that Xu Zhimo, in happiness, had pursued so hard in the past. For Xu Zhimo's second collection of poems, Wen Yiduo once gave enthusiastic affirmation: "This is indeed an improvement over "Zhimo's Poems"—a huge improvement." Indeed, the poems in this collection of poems are better than the first The department is much more mature and has more changes.More importantly, Xu Zhimo has made great progress in the art of poetry.At this time, when Xu Zhimo and Wen Yiduo were advocating new metrical poetry, Xu Zhimo was naturally trying and practicing Wen Yiduo's "three beauties" of music, architecture and painting.Therefore, Wen Yiduo appreciated Xu Zhimo's progress in the beauty of poetry form. Xu Zhimo's student and famous poet Bian Zhilin said of his little poem when compiling "Xu Zhimo's Poetry Collection": "This poem is the most perfect in form among the author's poems." " also thinks: "And several poems such as "Ding Dang-Freshness" opened the gap between the two periods before and after him. He wiped away the previous anger, and wrote the secret of the subtle soul with neat, soft and refreshing lines. Indeed, the rhythm of this poem reflects Xu Zhimo's skill and ingenuity, and his efforts in the form and rhyme of long and short sentences.The whole poem has two stanzas, and the rhythm of the upper and lower stanzas is symmetrical.The first, second, and fifth sentences of each stanza are composed of three steps.Such as: "occasionally/projected/on/your wave center", "at/this intersection/the mutual light".The third and fourth sentences of each stanza are composed of two steps, such as: "You/Don't be surprised", "You can remember/It's better to forget." The arrangement and processing of the steps are rigorous. There is no shortage of free and easy, with longer and shorter footsteps alternated, and the reading is calm and calm, euphemistic and catchy. Xu Zhimo's poems also pay special attention to the beauty of music, and he strives to pursue poetic sense.As in "Sea Rhyme": "Lady, single lady, why do you miss The beach at dusk? —— Girl, come home, girl! " "Oh no; I won't go home, I love the evening wind:"— On the sand, in the twilight, There's a radiant girl— wandering, wandering. "Lady, lass who radiates, why are you hesitant On this deserted sea? Girl, come home, girl! " "Oh no; hear me sing, Sea, I sing, you come and:"— Under the starlight, in the cool breeze, Swaying the voiceless voice of a girl—— High chants, low oh. "Lady, bold girl! There was a shady scene that day, In an instant, there was a bad storm—— Girl, come home, girl! " "Oh no; look at me dancing in the air, Like a seagull without waves:"—— In the night, on the beach, A slender figure whirled around— Whirling, whirling. "Listen, the wrath of the sea, Go home, girl! Behold, the wild beasts of the sea, Girl, come home, girl! " "Oh no; Hai Bo won't swallow me, I love the bumps of the sea! " In the sound of the tide, in the waves, Ah, a flustered maiden in the foam, Wasted, wasted. "Where is girl, girl? Where is your loud singing voice? Where is your slim figure? Where, oh brave lady? " The night engulfs the stars, The sea has no more light; The tide swallowed the sand, No more girls on the beach,— No more girls! This poem consists of five sections, and the internal syllables have the same repetition, resulting in strong rhythmic and musical beauty.After it was composed by Zhao Yuanren, it was also widely sung. In Xu Zhimo's second collection of poems, not all are love words, some poems also reflect certain social issues. "The Marshal" is aimed at the fact that the warlord "buries the frontline soldiers with death, and if there are survivors, they will be buried alive", and angrily denounces the atrocities of the marshal. "Lushan Stone Worker Song" has the influence of "Volga Boatman Song", which sings the rough and vigorous voice of the working people. "It's Difficult to Live These Years" is like writing about flowers, like writing about love, and like expressing the emotion of life: Yesterday I braved the heavy rain to visit Guizhou under Yanxia Ridge; The southern peak is lost in the haze, In front of the eaves of a pine thatched shop I stopped and asked a village girl Is the sweet-scented osmanthus in Wengjiashan as beautiful as last year? The village girl looked at me carefully; Like a bird with sunken feathers, I thought to myself, she must feel strange, Walking alone on this rainy day, I asked for no reason whether the sweet-scented osmanthus is fragrant this year. "Guest, you are unlucky, too late and too early; This is the famous Manjia Lane, At this time in previous years, everywhere is very fragrant, It has been raining and windy for the past few days, If it makes such a mess, this year's morning glory will be over. " Sure enough, this Guizilin can't give me ideas to make me happy; Only scorched stamens are seen on the branches, Looking at the desolation, alas, what a disaster! Why is this haggard everywhere? It's not easy to live these days!It's not easy to live these days!
