Tang Dynasty: Li Bai
If the world is a big dream, why work hard for it? Just lying in front of us all day drunk and slumped.
In front of the court, a bird was singing among the flowers. May I ask when this is? Spring breeze and warblers.
Feel like sighing, and fall in love with wine. Waiting for the bright moon, the song has been forgotten.

Life is like a big dream, there is no need to work hard for it. So I was drunk all day, lying in the vestibule like a pile of mud. I woke up and looked into the yard. A bird is singing among the flowers.
Excuse me, when is this? Spring breeze only cares about the whispers of songbirds. I really want to express my feelings about it, but I still drink and pour myself on it. Sing a song to invite the bright moon in the sky, and the end of the song makes me intoxicated.
Li Bai, the author of this song "Drunk in Spring", melted in a gentle wine town.
In a drunken haze, I discovered a new world with a brand-new vision, hid in the quiet environment of nature and music, and resolved my frustration with a free and easy attitude of eating, drinking and having fun, which implied the author's criticism of the ugly and dark social reality. The language of the whole poem is beautiful and fluent. Although deeply influenced by Tao Yuanming's poetic style, he maintained Li Bai's own style.
Extended data:
The creative background of Drunk in Spring;
In the first year of Tianbao, Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty (742), Li Bai went to Beijing to show his respect for Hanlin. Because of his hatred of evil and aloof personality, he refused to go with Li and Gao Lishi, and was soon rejected. He felt the darkness and filth of officialdom, and his heart was very depressed. He often drinks to drown his sorrows. This poem is one of his drunken songs.
This poem was either written by Li Bai when he lived in Donglu for four years (745) or by Li Bai Kaiyuan when he lived in Anlu (7 13-74 1).
