Out of the Frontier
Wang Wei
The proud Tartar sons are hunting out of the town;
White grass spreads to the sky, wild fire bums up and down.
They ride on the desert when evening clouds hang low;
In autumn days on the vast plain they bend their bow.
Our officers strengthen the defense by daylight;
Our victorious generals cross the river at night.
The swords, bows and bridles mounted with gems and jade
Are awarded generals and their brave cavalcade.
This poem describes the Tartar forces and glorifies the Han generals defeating them.
《出塞作》是唐代诗人王维所作的一首边塞诗。前两句写打猎声势之盛，渲染边关剑拔弩张之势。三四句写出吐蕃健儿盘马弯弓、勇猛强悍，暗示边情的紧急，为诗的下半部分作了铺垫。五六句突出军情的紧迫，进军的神速，表现了唐军昂扬奋发的士气，雷厉风行的作风。末两句点出赏功慰军的题旨，收结颇为得体。此诗写得很有特色，它反映了当前的战斗情况，用两相对比的写法，先写吐蕃的强悍，气势咄咄逼人，造成心理上的紧张；再写唐军雍容镇静，应付裕如，有攻有守，以一种压倒对方的凌厉气势夺取最后的胜利，暗寓出诗人赞颂唐军对吐蕃作战的胜利，表现了盛唐时期的国力强盛和诗人自豪、喜悦的心情。
