Background创作背景

This poem shows one small moment: a young girl in a garden at the end of spring has just finished swinging when a guest suddenly arrives. Who wrote it is debated. Some books say Li Qingzhao, some say the author is unknown, and others name Su Shi or Zhou Bangyan. Today many people read it as a work of the young Li Qingzhao, but this cannot be proven.

这首词写的是一个少女在春末夏初的园子里荡秋千,忽然有客人来了的一个小片段。作者是谁有争议:有的书说是李清照写的,有的说是无名氏,也有人说是苏轼或周邦彦写的。现在很多人把它当作李清照少女时期的作品来读,但这一点并不能确定。

05

The poet作者

The author is unknown. The most common view is Li Qingzhao (1084–about 1155), from Zhangqiu near Jinan, the most famous woman writer of song lyrics in the Song dynasty. The lyrics of her girlhood are lively and bright, mostly about life at home. This poem feels much like her early work, so many people think she wrote it.

作者不详。最常见的说法是李清照(1084—约1155),号易安居士,济南章丘人,宋代最有名的女词人。她少女时期的词活泼、明快,写的多是闺中生活,这首词的风格和她早期的作品很像,所以很多人认为是她写的。

The mood意境

This poem is like a short film. The first half is a quiet picture: the girl has just finished swinging, lazily rubs her hands, and has a light sweat on her skin. The heavy dew and thin flowers describe the garden, and also set off how young and tender she is. In the second half the picture suddenly moves: a guest is coming! She is so flustered that she runs off in her socks, and her gold hairpin falls out. Red in the face, she hurries away. But at the door she cannot help looking back, and she pretends to sniff a green plum to hide her curiosity. Shy, flustered and curious: a few small actions bring the girl's feelings to life.

这首词像一段小电影。上阕是安静的画面:少女刚荡完秋千,懒懒地揉着手,身上出了一层细汗。“露浓花瘦”写园子里的花,也映衬出少女的娇嫩。下阕画面忽然动起来:有客人来了!她慌得鞋都没穿,金钗也掉了,红着脸跑开。可是跑到门口,她又忍不住回头看,还假装在闻青梅,好掩饰自己的好奇。害羞、慌张、好奇,几个小动作就把一个少女的心思写活了。
