Original: Tianmen cut off the Chu River and Higashi Shimizu River. The green hills on both sides are neck and neck, and a boat meets leisurely from the horizon.
From: Wang Tianmen Mountain by Li Bai in Tang Dynasty.
Tianmen Mountain broke in the middle because the Chu River washed it away, and the clear water flowed eastward and turned back here. The towering green hills on both sides of the river stand across the Yangtze River, and a solitary boat on the river is coming from the edge of the sun.

This song "Looking at Tianmen Mountain" was written by Li Baichu when he first saw Tianmen Mountain on his way to Jiangdong Jingdangtu (now Anhui) in 725 AD (13th year of Kaiyuan).
The poem "the green hills on both sides of the strait are opposite, and the lonely sails come from the sun". These two sentences are an inseparable whole. The third sentence inherits the majestic posture of Tianmen and two mountains seen in the first sentence; The fourth sentence carries forward the second sentence to write the vision of the Yangtze River, awaken the foothold of "hope" and express the poet's dripping joy.
The poet is not standing somewhere on the shore overlooking Tianmen Mountain, but his foothold is a "lone sail" coming from Japan.
Tianmen Mountain is facing Jiajiang River, and it is inseparable from the Yangtze River. The first two sentences of the poem start with the relationship between "Jiang" and "Mountain". The first sentence in the poem, "Tianmen breaks the Chu River," closely follows the topic and goes all the way to Tianmen Mountain. The focus is on the magnificent momentum of the surging Chu River flowing through Tianmen Mountain. It gives people rich associations: Tianmen Mountain and Tianmen Mountain were originally a whole, blocking the turbulent river.
Due to the impact of the surging waves of the Chu River, Tianmen was knocked open and interrupted, becoming two mountains.
Through the description of Tianmen Mountain, the whole poem praises the magic and magnificence of nature, expresses the author's optimistic and heroic feelings when he first came to Bashu, and shows the author's free and unrestrained spirit. The artistic conception of the works is broad, the weather is majestic, the dynamic and static are in harmony with each other, and they set each other off as interesting, and they can turn static into dynamic and dynamic into static, showing a fresh interest.
