"War in the South of the City"

How dim is the battlefield?

A warrior is like a swarm of ants.

The sun is red when the energy is heavy.

Blood stained basil purple.

The bird has human flesh in its mouth.

You can’t fly if you are bored.

The people in the city yesterday.

There are ghosts in the city today.

The color of the flag is like a star.

The buzzing sound is endless.

The concubine’s husband and son.

All in the sound of the whistle.

"Farewell"

The five streams in Xunyang flow straight into Wushan. The beautiful scenery is passed down by people who come here.

You go to Nanzhong and claim to be beautiful. Farewell to you in August and Autumn, the rustling reed flowers revive my sorrow.

The clouds and sails cannot be seen in the distance, and the Yangtze River flows freely at dusk.
