全詞寫出懷人念遠(yuǎn)、憂思難禁之情,或?yàn)樽髡郀坑浧涞芾顝纳迫胨尾坏脷w,故觸景生情而作。上片點(diǎn)出春暮及相別時(shí)間,那落了一身還滿的雪梅正像愁之欲去還來;而下片由彼方措意,說從善留宋難歸,托雁捎信無憑,心中所懷的離恨,就好比越走越遠(yuǎn)還生的春草那樣無邊無際。兩者相形,倍覺愁腸寸斷的凄苦和離恨常伴的幽怨。歇拍兩句從動(dòng)態(tài)寫出離恨的隨人而遠(yuǎn),尤顯生動(dòng),為人所稱。
李煜 《清平樂·別來春半》
別來春半,
觸目柔腸斷。
砌下落梅如雪亂,
拂了一身還滿。
雁來音信無憑,
路遙歸夢難成。
離恨恰如春草,
更行更遠(yuǎn)還生。
Tune: "Pure Serene Music"
Li Yu
Spring has half gone since we two parted;
I can see nothing now but broken-hearted.
Plum blossoms fall below the steps like whirling snow;
They cover me still though brushed off a while ago.
No message comes from the wild geese's song;
In dreams you cannot come back for the road is long.
The grief of separation like spring grass
Grows each day you're farther away, alas!
