诗言志,歌永言,声依永,律和声。 · Poetry is the expression of earnest thought; singing is the prolonged utterance of that expression; the notes accompany that utterance,and they are harmonized by the standard tubes.· Verses are an expression of ideals; songs of what one has to say. The voice goes with the expression,which is accompanied by rythem. (The Book of History [of the 6th century BC]) |
