The meaning of this poem is very simple, which can be summed up as "Don't lose the good times". This is a kind of thought and feeling that everyone has. However, readers feel that although their feelings are simple but strong, they can linger in people's hearts for a long time and have incredible charm. Every poem seems to repeat a single meaning, "Don't lose a good time!" "And every sentence contains subtle changes, repetition is not monotonous, there is a sense of urgency, and a beautiful melody is formed. Repeated chanting emphasizes cherishing time and not missing youth. Literally, it is a bold singing of youth and love, and a frank expression of enthusiasm. However, behind the letter, the theme of "cherishing time" remains. Therefore, if the purpose of "eating and drinking in time" seems low, if it is "cherishing time", it will be stirring and intriguing.
