Year:? Don? Author:? Yu Li
Alone in the west wing, the moon is like a hook. Lonely phoenix tree deep courtyard locks clear autumn.
Cutting is still messy, which is parting from sorrow. It's not just the general taste.

2. Vernacular translation
Silent and lonely, I slowly boarded the empty west building alone.
Looking up at the sky, there is only one bend in Leng Yue.
Looking down, I saw the lonely plane tree in the yard, and the deep courtyard was shrouded in cold and desolate autumn colors.
It's the pain of national subjugation, and it's been cut all the time.
That long sadness is entangled in my heart, but it is another kind of unspeakable pain. ? [2]
Three. Creation background
In 975 (the eighth year of Kaibao), the Southern Tang Dynasty was destroyed by the Song Dynasty. Li Yu lost his family and country, stripped of his flesh and blood, and was imprisoned in Bianjing. ? Zhao Kuangyin and Song Taizu, because Li Yu refused to guard the city, called him "disobedient". Li Yu lived a humiliating life as a prisoner. Li Yu's poems are divided into two periods, one is about being captured, and the other is about pouring out the pain and thoughts of going abroad, which is sad and touching. Meeting You Huan is a very representative one of his later works. ? [ 1]
