on the themes of love and friendship and nature,but he is a patriotic poet and a writer of political verse calling for national independence for Scotland and liberty,equality and fraternity for all the people in the world.1010n nThe greatest thing about Burns is that he is a peasant poet,that he comes from the people and therefore can understand the people and share their feelings and thoughts.n nBurns is a great master of language;he expresses himself with depth of emotion in simple and musical language of lyrical song and he uses playful words and ironic phrasing in the description of Scottish peasants and their ways of life and in his sarcastic thrusts at the hypocrisy and egoism of the ruling class and the clergy.1111Auld Lang Syne (友谊地久天长友谊地久天长)-Robert BurnsRobert Burnsn nMade

a traditional folk song.It is famous in many countries,especially in the English-speaking world;Traditionally,it can be used to celebrate the start of the New Year at the stroke of midnight.By extension,it is also sung at funerals,graduations,and as a farewell or ending to other occasions.The title has been translated into different versions in Chinese,such as 过去的好时光，一路平安，友谊万岁，友谊地久天长.1616n n说起友谊地久天长的来历，还有一个小故事，18世纪的时候，在一个小镇的酒吧里，有一群老人在开怀畅饮，原来他们是儿时的伙伴，分别多年后，他们在相聚一处，一起回忆着过去的美好时光。他们整整聊了一夜。天亮了，他们即将踏上征程。分别之际，有一位老人动情的唱了一有一位老人动情的唱了一首歌首歌。这一切都被农民诗人罗伯特彭斯看到了，后来他把老人唱的那首歌改编成了他把老人唱的那首歌改编成了过去的好时光。1717Translationn

gone by”or“old times”.Consequently”For auld lang syne”,as it appears in the first line of the chorus,is loosely translated as“for(the sake of)old times”.2121n nStructuren nPart1Part1,give us advisory reminder and lay emphasis on ,give us advisory reminder and lay emphasis on not forgetting the old friends;not forgetting the old friends;n nPart2Part2,trace back to the passed days they spent together and,trace back to the passed days they spent together and sigh with feeling that time and tide wait for no man.sigh with feeling that time and tide wait for no man.n nPart3Part3,express his

nPart4Part4,celebrate together for their great,profound and,celebrate together for their great,profound and eternal friendship.And never forget.eternal friendship.And never forget.2222The poem begins by posing a rhetorical question as to whether it is right that old times be forgotten,and is generally interpreted as a call to remember long-standing friendships.In the second and fifth stanza,the poem describes the rejoice of retogether after long time parting,and in the third and fourth stanza,it expresses the sorrow and regret feelings for the passed youth by comparing different lives from the past to now.2323n nMelodyThe tune to which Auld Lang Syne is now commonly sung is a pentatonic（五音阶的）Scots folk melody,probably originally a sprightly dance in a much quicker pace.此诗基本上以 iambic tetrameter(四步抑扬格)和 iambic trimeter(三步抑扬格)交替使用而成，双行押韵。具体韵式为abab,cbdb,ebdb,fbgb,hbib,jbkb2424n nTheme-Friendship The poem expresses the joy of reunion after long time departure,and the sorrow as well as regret feelings for the passed youth.2525n n由于由于魂断蓝桥魂断蓝桥中使用了这段音乐，作曲家和中使用了这段音乐，作曲家和观众根据剧情又为其起名为观众根据剧情又为其起名为一路平安一路平安和和友友谊地久天长谊地久天长。“Auld Lang SyneAuld Lang

who composed this glorious fragment.There is more of the fire of native genius in it,than in half a dozen of modern English Bacchanalians.n n写这一辉煌片段的天才诗人应为埋骨的青山增色！这诗燃烧着民间天才之火，纵使拿出六七个近代英国骚人墨客的大作，也无法同它相比。27272828
