【注解】： １、古意：犹“拟古”。 ２、轻七尺：犹轻生甘死。 ３、解：擅长。 【简析】： “古意”即“拟古”，但多托古喻今，这实际是一首边塞诗。戍边的健儿们非常勇猛，把性命看得并不重要，但一听到辽东小妇的笛声，就不禁都悲伤起来了，表现出人性中复杂的一面，颇具匠心。 AN OLD AIR There once was a man, sent on military missions, A wanderer, from youth, on the You and Yan frontiers. Under the horses' hoofs he would meet his foes And, recklessly risking his seven-foot body, Would slay whoever dared confront Those moustaches that bristled like porcupinequills. ...There were dark clouds below the hills, there were white clouds above them, But before a man has served full time, how can he go back? In eastern Liao a girl was waiting, a girl of fifteen years, Deft with a guitar, expert in dance and song. ...She seems to be fluting, even now, a reed-song of home, Filling every soldier's eyes with homesick tears.
