original text
A cluster of flowers blooming in early spring.
This spring, light wax invades the year, and ice and snow break the spring. No one has seen Dongfeng's letter (4), and the willow reveals a little meaning and lace. Cold nights are long, loneliness is easy to warm [5], and the bells and drums are getting round [6].
At the dawn, the mountains are half occupied, and the pavilion is light and sparse. Tourists will make a fragrance-seeking plan, and Momo apricot should have reached the top. I am not so tired when I am sick, and I will be careless and let myself go, but I will love to sleep in the morning.
To annotate ...
⑴ A bunch of flowers: epigraph name, disyllabic, seventy-eight characters, seven sentences before and after, and four rhymes. This is the only style in Kangxi's ci-poetry. All the songs in the Song Dynasty are filled in this way, but the sentences are even and slightly different.
⑵ Spring wax invades the year: there is a leap month in the lunar calendar, which starts late before the Spring Festival. Spring is shallow and early. Because there was a leap month last year, the sunrise in spring next year is now the twelfth month of last year. Wax, a sacrifice at the end of the year, is celebrated about 20 days after winter, and is called La Ri.

Vernacular translation
Spring came early this year, the weather is still very cold, and the beautiful spring is still covered with snow and ice. Not only did spring come late, but the news brought by the east wind was also ignored, revealing only a little bright spring. However, even if the night in early spring is cold and long, it is the spring of the earth after all. The thick quilt is a little hot, even the bells and drums that tell the time are crisp and round.
When the sun rises in the morning, the mountains are half hidden, and the pavilions in the distance are shrouded in a faint fog. When spring comes, people begin to plan to go out for a spring outing. The peach blossoms and apricot blossoms in the suburbs must be in full bloom. I'm sick and I'm not in the mood to go out to play. I just want to lie down and sleep until late in the morning.

This word captures the special scene and unique psychological feeling of "early spring" and the early stage of recovery, and describes the poet's happiness and careless mood after recovery in early spring.
The sentence "Light wax invades the year this spring, and ice and snow break Chun Yan", in which the cold in spring is still heavy, but it is novel to write with the expression that wax invades the snow. The sentence "Dongfeng" further depicts the characteristics of "shallow spring this year"-not only did spring come late, but even if there was a letter, "no one saw it", and only the "willow lace" in spring revealed this "shallow meaning". This not only shows the abnormality in the early spring of this year, but also secretly reveals the poet's unique feeling of love at first sight. Here, "micro-meaning" and "wicker lace" are associated with each other, with profound connotation and great personality. The following three sentences in "Cold Night" directly express feelings and joy: in early spring, although the night is cold and long, it is already spring back to the earth, "lonely and easy to warm". Even the clock and drum that tells the time feel that its rhyme is "clear" and pleasant. The following three sentences in Cold Night have both feelings and imagination. In fact, it doesn't have to be really warm, it just looks warm. In fact, the late drums and morning bells are still normal sounds, but they seem to be particularly crisp and round, and the early spring is very thin. This is combined with the next sentence of "the first day" and "pavilion" in Du Fu's "Sunset in the Courtyard, Guomao Society in Huaixi": "The balcony with sunset scenery does not need bells and drums to announce a new sunny day." Pu Qilong's Reading Du Xin Jie (Volume 4): "Old notes, the custom takes the sound of bells and drums as a clear account." It also coincides with this word. At this point, the excitement at first sight in early spring is depicted very hierarchically and delicately.
The first two sentences of the next part describe the scene in the early spring morning, which is still in line with the special situation of "onset". I only write what I saw and felt in the pavilion. "In the first half of the mountain, smoke is sparse in the pavilion." Although the scene is not vast, it is bright, vibrant, fresh and gratifying. This is not only a true description of the early spring morning scene, but also in line with the author's unique environment and psychological feelings. The following two sentences refer to the prospect of tourists looking for fragrance in suburban gardens, and then think of "Momo apricot should strive for the first place". "Striving for the first place" means blooming before other flowers. It's just speculation here, but I didn't really see it. It is still closely related to the unique scene of "getting sick in early spring", which is vivid and interesting. These four sentences are different from the first four sentences in the last film. The first four sentences of the last film are both narrative and scenery, and the scenery is an empty pen; The next four sentences describe the scenery and narrative, and the scenery is true and false. This not only avoids repetition and rigidity, but also conforms to the logic of the poet's illness. The first part describes the feeling and mood when I first wake up before sunrise, so if I have a lot of imagination, I will be naturally excited and happy when I am sick every spring; In the next film, I saw the bright morning light after sunrise, so I drew it with solid strokes, which made sense and prepared for the following. From the poet's point of view, you will naturally think of the interest in finding incense and the gratifying bright spring scenery outside the pavilion, so you should also "make a plan to find incense."
The last three sentences, "I am sick and tired, I am careless and self-indulgent, but I love sleeping in the sun", suddenly reversed, which is very different from the previous situation. In fact, this wave of twists and turns is closely related to the word "onset". Because although spring comes back to the earth, getting sick is not so fun. Carelessness should be combined with lack of care, love of sleep should be combined with senility, and morning sleep should be combined with seeking beauty, so that the above emotions can fall here every spring. This psychological change is unique to "sick" people. This word is very delicate and touching.
Huang Ziyun, a Qing Dynasty man, said: "Poetry is nothing more than a scene of an event, true or false. Every day has a day of love and a day of scenery. If the poet can let it be, because of that sentence, the scenery is all true and the feelings are all sincere. " Su Shi's ci (Ye Hong's poem) is nothing more than "I can go with the times because I wrote a sentence", and the "scenery" in his pen is "all true" regardless of the virtual and the real; The emotion in his works, whether it is joy or Excellence, is sincerity, because he grasped the special scenes of "early spring" and "illness" and wrote the author's personality, mind and mood.
