Listen to this article《鹊踏枝·梅落繁枝千万片》是南唐词人冯延巳所作的一首词。这是一首写思妇闺怨的艳词。上阕开头三句写眼前之景，构成凄艳惊人的意境。写景实写离情也。“昨夜笙歌容易散”写忆中饯行宴会的草草结束，正写人之“帐饮无绪”，愁闷有加。下阕写登楼翘望盼归，然而春寒袭人。四周山围，归雁过尽，暮蔼沉沉，写历时之久，寓离恨之深。最后“思量遍”三字，含蕴不尽，情自深远。词人借这名女子抒发了一种情场失意的伤感之情，同时又表达了对“盛宴终散”、“人生无常”的感慨。写作手法上虽没有附会什么比兴，多是直抒其情，愈是别后“思量遍”，愈惜当时的“容易散”，这种心理转换在这首词中表现得巧妙而酣畅。风格上具有较浓郁的感伤气息，形成一种哀愁之美。
《鹊踏枝·梅花繁枝千万片》 冯延巳
梅花繁枝千万片，
犹自多情，
学雪随风转。
昨夜笙歌容易散，
酒醒添得愁无限。
楼上春山寒四面，
过尽征鸿，
暮景烟深浅。
一向凭阑人不见，
鲛绡掩泪思量遍。
Grief
Tune: “Magpie on the Branch”
Feng Yansi
Thousands of petals fall from the mume trees
Reluctantly and whirl like snow in the breeze.
Gone are last night’s flute songs, a joy so brief;
Awake from wine, I find but boundless grief.
Upstairs I see spring mountains cold far and near;
No more wild geese(1)
But light and heavy evening smokes appear.
For long I lean on rails without seeing my dear;
I think of her still while I dry up tear on tear.
1. The wild geese were supposed to be messengers in ancient China.
