Background创作背景

Zhongnan Mountain lies south of Chang'an, and many hermits lived there. In this poem Li Bai comes down the mountain one evening and spends the night at the home of a hermit surnamed Husi. They drink and sing late into the night. Nothing is recorded about the hermit's full name or life. One view is that the poem dates from Li Bai's years in Chang'an.

终南山在长安南边，山里住着不少隐士。这首诗写李白有一天傍晚从终南山下来，到一位姓斛斯的隐士家里住了一夜，两人喝酒唱歌到深夜。斛斯山人的名字和生平都没有记载。一说这首诗写于李白在长安的那几年。

The poet作者

Li Bai (701–762) was a great Tang poet, called the Immortal of Poetry. He loved travelling in the hills, loved wine, and liked making friends with hermits. Most of his poems are bold and sweeping, but this one is quiet and warm. It feels a little like Tao Yuanming's poems about country life.

李白（701—762），唐代大诗人，人称“诗仙”。他喜欢游山玩水，爱喝酒，也爱和隐士交朋友。他的诗多半奔放豪迈，这首却写得很安静、很亲切，有点像陶渊明写田园生活的味道。

The mood意境

The poem is like a little travel diary. It starts with coming down the mountain. The moon follows him, as if it does not want to leave either. Looking back, he sees the mountain turned dark green by the dusk. At his friend's house the children open the gate, bamboo lines the path, and vines brush his clothes. Everything feels warm and welcoming. Then they drink and sing until the stars grow few. The last two lines touch the heart most: I am drunk, you are happy, and we both forget the scheming of the world. Reading it, you can almost smell the bamboo, hear the wind in the pines, and feel the simple joy between two friends.

诗像一段小小的旅行日记。开头写下山：月亮跟着人走，好像也舍不得离开。回头看，山已经被暮色染成一片青苍。到了朋友家，孩子开门，竹林夹路，藤萝碰着衣服，一切都那么亲切。然后就是喝酒、唱歌，一直到星星都稀了。最后两句最动人：我醉了，你也乐了，我们都忘了世上那些算计。读这首诗，好像能闻到竹林的清香，听到松风的声音，感到朋友之间那份简单的快乐。
