In the poem, the author alludes to himself because her husband wants to take a concubine and talks about others, but his words are graceful and frustrated. I am desperate and still hope that man will change. My feelings are painful but warm. The original poem is as follows:
Love should be as pure as snow in the mountains and as bright as clouds on the moon. I heard that you have two hearts, so I came to break up with you.
Today is like the last party, and tomorrow we will break up. I moved my feet slowly along the edge of the road, and my past life flowed like water in a ditch, never returning.
When I decided to take the king away from home, I didn't cry like an ordinary girl. I am full of thinking that if I marry a person with a heart, I can love each other and be happy forever.
The love of men and women is as light and soft as a fishing rod, and the fish is as lovely as a living wave. Men should attach importance to friendship, and there is no money to compensate for the loss of sincere love.
Explain in vernacular Chinese: Love should be as pure as snow on the mountain and as bright as the moon in the clouds. I heard that you have second thoughts, so I came to break up with you. ? Today is like the last party, and we will break up tomorrow. I walked slowly along the ditch, and my past life was like a ditch flowing eastward, which never came back.
At the beginning, I resolutely left home and ran away with you, unlike ordinary girls who cry sadly. I thought that if I married a loyal man, I could fall in love and be happy forever. Love between men and women is like a fishing rod. The fish is so cute. Men should put affection first, and lose their sincere love, which money and wealth can't make up for.

The four words of "sadness" suddenly fell apart, saying that ordinary women always cry very sad when they get married. In fact, this is unnecessary; As long as you marry a single-minded man and grow old together, you will be very happy.

At the end of the four sentences, these two metaphors are used repeatedly, which shows that love should be based on mutual affinity. If you rely on money, it will be difficult to last, and the reason why there are "two meanings" suddenly comes to light.
