The clouds on the pillow make me sleep like a thousand peaks; Bursts of pines floated from the valley and seemed to rumble under my bed. I can't help but want to see the mountain-like waves. As soon as I opened the window, the rolling Yangtze River seemed to jump into my window bar.

Reference opinion:
This poem has three main artistic features:
First, it is rich in content and broad in scope. There are only 28 words in quatrains, but many things such as pillows, beds, windows, mountains, peaks, valleys, rivers, waves, silver, clouds and sounds are written, which expands the expressive power of poetry. In a room, the poet imagined flying thousands of miles away, from top to bottom, from near to far, describing the mountains and rivers under the night, showing the vastness, grandeur and charm of the night in the south of the Yangtze River, with ethereal brushwork and meaningful words.
Second, write quietly with movement and express emotion with scenery. The poet created a peaceful artistic conception, but he achieved this effect by dynamic description. Wandering "clouds", wailing "pines", rushing rivers and noisy waves, these moving scenery inject infinite vitality into poetry, and at the same time, through sports, it more prominently shows the tranquility of nature. There seems to be no direct lyric in the poem, but the poet's good feelings of loving the motherland and praising the night in the south of the Yangtze River are shown in vivid and dynamic scenery descriptions. During the Northern Song Dynasty when Ceng Gongliang lived, the party struggle was fierce and the class contradiction was sharp. A profound social crisis is brewing in the prosperous weather of Chengping. The poet has some hidden worries about this. "Mourning for thousands of valleys" and "crashing on the shore" are exactly the tortuous reflections of a sober politician's deep anxiety about the current situation.
Third, the language is simple and clear. The poet pays great attention to the choice of words and the refinement of language, and uses many unpretentious words, such as "thousand", "ten thousand", "greatness" and "devotion". And rewrote the magnificent spectacle in the vast night: the majestic river and the waves of "Yinshan hitting the sky" created a world, magnificent in the vastness; Lyric, found in the depths of the plain; It has a powerful and shocking artistic power. This poem is a scene, full of emotion, which writes the magnificent momentum of the Yangtze River from a small place.
