The Shepherd Boy is a seven-character quatrain written by Lv Yan, a poet in the Tang Dynasty. This poem vividly depicts a picture of a shepherd boy coming home late to rest, reflecting the tranquility and leisure of his life.
The whole poem is as follows: the grass shop is six or seven miles away from the field, and the flute is three or four times in the evening breeze. Come back from a full meal at dusk and lie in the moonlight without taking off your hemp fiber.
The vast grassland is like being laid on the ground, and there are grasslands everywhere. The intermittent melodious flute of the shepherd boy was faintly heard in the evening breeze. After dinner, at sunset, the shepherd boy came back from the pasture. He didn't even take off his hemp fiber, but just lay on the grass and looked at the full moon in the sky.
Appreciate:
The first sentence, "the grass shop is six or seven miles across the field", describes the visual experience. Looking around, the grass on the vilen is lush. The word "pave" shows the lush grass and the gentle and comfortable feeling of grassland. The vastness of grassland paved the way for the emergence of shepherd boy.
The second sentence, "The flute makes the evening wind ring three or four times." Described the feeling of hearing, listening to the ears and the shepherd's flute in the evening wind. The word "Nong" shows a kind of interest, conveying the intermittent and melodious flute sound in the wind and the meaning of the shepherd boy playing the flute. The melodious flute sound reflects the relaxed mood of the shepherd boy after a day's work. If you don't see the shepherd boy, you can smell his voice first, which has unlimited imagination. The "six or seven miles" and "three or four sounds" here are not exact figures, just to highlight the vastness of Yuan Ye and the silence of the countryside in the evening.
In the third sentence, "Come back at dusk and have a good meal", the poet turned to writing and began to describe the shepherd boy directly. The shepherd boy had a hearty meal, and it was after dusk.
The last sentence "lying in the moonlight without taking off the hemp fiber" describes a scene where a shepherd boy has a rest. A shepherd boy with the earth as his bed and the sky as his account, who eats when he is hungry and sleeps when he is sleepy, has no attachments and is free. The poet did not describe what the shepherd boy did after lying down. The shepherd boy may want to stretch himself or enjoy the moonlight.
