Background创作背景

This lyric describes a spring outing at West Lake in Hangzhou at Qingming, mixed with longing for a woman. It is generally thought to recall how Wu Wenying first met his sweetheart by West Lake. He glimpsed her back through the flowers; later they had secret meetings, but in the end they parted. Now it is Qingming again, he visits the lake once more, and the old love floods back. The exact year it was written is no longer known.

这首词写的是清明时节在杭州西湖游春的情景，又夹着对一位女子的思念。一般认为，词里写的是吴文英当年在西湖边遇见心上人的往事：隔着花丛看见她的背影，后来两人有过秘密的约会，最终却分开了。如今又到清明，他重游西湖，旧情涌上心头。具体写于哪一年，已经说不清。

The poet作者

Wu Wenying (about 1200 to about 1260), courtesy name Junte, also called Mengchuang, came from Siming, today's Ningbo in Zhejiang. He was a Southern Song ci poet. He never held high office and often lived as a guest of officials around Suzhou and Hangzhou. His lyrics use rich words and jump from image to image like a dream, so they are hard to follow. "San fan" in the tune name means a tune made by joining parts of several melodies.

吴文英（约1200—约1260），字君特，号梦窗，四明（今浙江宁波）人，南宋词人。他一辈子没有做大官，常在苏州、杭州一带给官员做门客。他的词用字华丽，意思常常跳来跳去，像梦一样，不太好懂。“三犯”是一种把几个曲调拼在一起的词调。

The mood意境

The first stanza is like a scroll painting of a spring outing at West Lake. Red flowers, like shy girls, are blown by the evening wind onto the grass. The causeways split the lake like a swallow's tail, boats glide like gulls, and fine horses rest beneath the clouds. There are a thousand willow threads, and the path goes deeper, as if into fairyland. Just then, through the flowers, he sees her from behind. It is only a glimpse of her back, yet it sets his heart turning over and over. The second stanza tells what came after. He hesitates and feels lost, like Cui Hu who could never find the girl under the peach blossoms again. Their meetings cannot be counted on, and he grows thin with longing. Then the poem turns to tomorrow: after Qingming the whole lake will be cold wind and rain. The ending shows only hills and water at dusk. The waves are pale and leave no trace, just like that love. Wu Wenying's lyrics are often dreamlike, with one picture jumping to the next. You do not need to understand every line. Just follow the pictures and feel the mood, lovely and sad at once.

上片像一卷西湖春游图：红花像害羞的姑娘，被晚风吹落在草地上；长堤把湖分成燕尾，游船像鸥鸟，骏马停在云下；柳丝千万条，路越走越深，像进了仙境。就在这时，隔着花丛，他看见了她的背影。只是一个背影，却让他的心千回百转。下片写后来的事：他犹豫、失落，像崔护再也找不到桃花下的姑娘；约会说不准，人却因为相思瘦了。最后笔锋转向明天：清明过后，满湖都会是冷清的风雨。结尾只写暮色里的山和湖，波浪淡淡的，什么痕迹也没留下，就像那段感情一样。吴文英的词常常像梦，画面一个接一个地跳，读的时候不必句句弄懂，跟着画面去感受那种又美又惆怅的心情就好。
