Make Way for Tomorrow
Tomorrow is not just tomorrow.
I waited for tomorrow, and everything was in vain.

Watch the water flow eastward and the sunset at dusk.
What will tomorrow be like in a hundred years? Please listen to my song tomorrow.

Creation background
This poem is written by Qian Fu, a scholar in Ming Dynasty. Some people think it was written by Wen Jia's "Today's Song". In fact, as long as we look at their birth and death years, it should be Wen Jia (150 1 ~ 1583) and Qian Fu (141-kloc-0/504).
It is also recorded that Wen Jia also wrote Song of Tomorrow. Therefore, there are two authors of Song of Tomorrow to be verified, namely Qian Hetan (also known as Qian Fu) and Wen Jia, who have always had different opinions.
The Chinese Morning Post (March 20xx 1 1) has two authors. The articles Sikuquanshu and Wenwu Song indicate that the author of Tomorrow Song is Wen Jia, so many people tend to think that the author of Tomorrow Song is Wen Jia.
Chewing words (No.1 1, 20xx, pp. 43-44) The author of "Song of Tomorrow" is non-Qing, and there are works such as "Thousand Rivers Beach Draft" (an engraving of Shen Simeiju in the thirty-sixth year of Wanli in Ming Dynasty) that have been handed down to this day. The poem "Song of Tomorrow" is included in the first volume of "River Beach Draft". In addition, the article added the identity of Qian Hetan, that is, "Mr. Qian is afraid of happiness and modest." His home is close to Fanghetan, which is famous for its beach clouds. " And introduced his filial piety as a scholar and the year of his death.
It can be seen that although it is difficult to draw a conclusion about the author of Song of Tomorrow, it is still very clear who comes first and who follows, Qian Fu and Wen Jia.
works appreciation
This poem mentions "tomorrow" seven times, repeatedly warning people to cherish time, do today's work well, don't put it off until tomorrow, and don't waste time. Poetry has simple meaning, clear language, easy-to-understand reasoning and great educational significance.
The enlightenment of this song of tomorrow is that many things in the world can be fought for and saved as much as possible, and only time is hard to retain. There is only one life, and time never looks back. Don't put off till tomorrow what you can do today and the day after tomorrow. Say, "What can be done today can be done today."
Song of Tomorrow has been widely praised by the world for hundreds of years. In his works, the poet warns and exhorts people to firmly grasp the fleeting today, do well what they can do today, and don't pin any plans and hopes on the unknown tomorrow. Today is the most precious. Only by grasping today, can we have a full tomorrow, do something and achieve something. Otherwise, "the day after tomorrow" will only end up as "all in vain" and accomplish nothing. So, whatever you do, remember that everything starts today and everything starts now.
This poem is rich in content, fluent in language, easy to understand and convincing.
Famous comments
Qian Yong: When the younger generation encounters anything, they will say, "I can't do it." This is also a big fallacy. I can do anything, but it's safe not to do it. Again, do one thing and say, "Wait until tomorrow." This is also a big mistake. I can do everything. If I follow blindly, I will make a big mistake in my life. So, Mr. Qian Hetan has the best song tomorrow.
works appreciation
The meaning of this poem is simple and straightforward, without any metaphor. But it expresses a kind of ills that everyone has been trying to put an end to since ancient times. Many people regard "tomorrow" as an excuse to avoid problems that should be solved immediately, and let themselves be lazy until "everything is wasted". In fact, as the author said, "Tomorrow can become geometry in a hundred years", how many tomorrows can life actually have? The most important thing is not tomorrow, but seize the present.
Brief introduction of the author
Qian Fusheng was born in Tianshun, Ming Yingzong for five years, and died in Hongzhi, Emperor Xiaozong of Ming Dynasty for seventeen years, at the age of 44. He was gifted at an early age and could write at the age of seven. As a teenager, he was a famous scholar, just like Gu Qing and Shen Yue were in the same county, and he was called "Three Masters". I once swam to Xiao Chibi and sang a song to my guests: "Six ding pulls out the bones of heaven and earth, and one column presses Dongjiang." People at that time thought it was a strange sentence.
In the 22nd year of Chenghua (1486), he was promoted. Hongzhi three years (1490), the top scholar (the top scholar), the court's countermeasures more than 3000 words, accurate words, no draft. As a writer in the Hanlin Academy, he devoted himself more to poetry and songs and regarded the contemporary world as a hero. It's amazing, a thousand words can stand, and no one can beat it. He also wrote an eight-part essay. Wang Fuzhi is as famous as Qin Wang, saying, "Money and Wang are two great people." Honest sex, like drinking, every time drunk, often words hurt people, so they are not liked by the same column, causing slander. Six years of Hongzhi (1493). After that, I called in sick and came back, so I stopped being an official.
The poem was famous for a while, and there were many seekers from all directions. They often entertain guests at banquets, laughing and laughing. Wave to the guests and ask them to leave. Liu Wan, the magistrate of Songjiang, is not polite, and Liu Wan hates his guts. After Liu Wan was falsely accused, Qian Fu rushed to Wumen (now Suzhou) to defend Liu Wan, which was a relief. Liu Wan was deeply grateful and wanted to be close, but Qian Fu ignored it as always. After Qian Fu's death, Liu Wan mourned the sacrifice and invested in the construction of the tomb. Shen Yue was asked to write a description and Gu Qing wrote a biography.
He is the author of "River Beach Collection" (6 volumes, River Beach Heritage 1) and "Shangshu Cong Shuo". There is a book "On Celebrities in Tang and Song Dynasties" handed down from ancient times (volume 10).
