寒食
春城无处不飞花
寒食东风御柳斜
日暮汉宫传蜡烛
轻烟散入五侯家
In spring city, petals fly everywhere;
Cold Food day, willows slant in east wind air.
At dusk, Han palace candles are given with care;
Light smoke enters five nobles' mansions where.
逐句注释
春城无处不飞花
春城指春天的京城长安;无处不飞花,没有一个角落不在飘落花朵,运用双重否定强化春色满城、落英缤纷的景象。
The 'spring city' refers to the capital Chang'an in spring; 'nowhere not flying flowers' is a double negative emphasizing that petals are falling throughout the city, conveying the exuberance of spring.
寒食东风御柳斜
寒食是清明前一二日,古时禁火;御柳指皇家园林中的柳树。东风吹拂,御柳斜斜,暗写寒食时节的京城风物。
Cold Food Day is one or two days before Qingming, when fires were traditionally forbidden; 'imperial willows' are willows in the imperial gardens. The east wind blows and the willows slant, depicting the seasonal scenery of the capital.
日暮汉宫传蜡烛
汉宫实指唐代皇宫,用汉朝代指本朝是唐诗常用手法。寒食禁火,但皇帝在傍晚向近臣赏赐蜡烛,'传'字写出递次传送的情景。
The 'Han palace' actually refers to the Tang palace; using Han to stand for the current dynasty is a common device in Tang poetry. Fire was prohibited on Cold Food Day, but the emperor granted candles to favored courtiers at dusk; the word 'passed' conveys the sequence of transmission.
轻烟散入五侯家
五侯原指东汉梁冀一族五侯,后世泛指权贵之家。蜡烛的轻烟飘入五侯家,暗讽皇帝宠幸外戚和权臣,令其享有特权。
The 'five marquises' originally referred to the five noble lords of the Liang family in the Eastern Han, but later became a general term for powerful aristocratic families. The light smoke from the candles drifting into their homes implicitly satirizes the emperor's favoritism and the privileges of the elite.
今日赏析
韩翃为盛唐诗人,此诗作于唐玄宗后期或代宗朝。寒食节禁火,但朝廷特赐蜡烛给权贵,诗人借这一现象委婉嘲讽当时达官贵人享受特权,同时以春城飞花、御柳斜风的明媚景色反衬宫廷恩宠的偏私。
Han Hong was a poet of the Tang dynasty; this poem was written during the late Xuanzong or Daizong reign. On Cold Food Festival, fire was forbidden, but the court specially granted candles to the powerful elite. The poet tactfully satirizes the privileged status of aristocrats, using the bright spring scenery of flying blossoms and slanting willows as a contrast to the favoritism of the imperial court.
