Yanling does not take a boat, but lies on an empty mountain to catch clear water.
The natural guest star resigned from the throne, and Yuan was not too drunk in Yangzhou.
Translation:
Yan Ziling didn't want to follow Emperor Guangwu of Han Dynasty, so he returned to Fuchun River, drunk in an empty mountain and fished for clear water.
Like Yan Ziling, I am a guest star who resigned and retired, not a drunken liquor star who traveled all over Yangzhou.
Literary appreciation
This poem quoted Yan Ziling's allusion: "Yanling doesn't walk ten thousand ships". The key to understanding the theme of poetry lies in the word "you". Although Li Bai was highly appreciated by Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty and worshipped Hanlin, Emperor Xuanzong only regarded him as a literary attendant, which was an important reason why Li Bai expressed his envy of retiring from the Jianghu.
The third and fourth sentences of the work are "natural guest star resigns from the throne, Yuan Yangzhou is not drunk". "Taibai" is the same as "guest star" and "Taibai" in Li Bai's previous sentence. Using dual technique to express the author's seclusion actually contains a kind of helpless emotion. "Too Drunk in Yangzhou, Yuan Fei" answers Cui Shi's poem "Jinling catches Brewmaster people", and takes care of it before and after.
This poem is shallow and lovely, like a mountain spring. Although it looks through the bottom, it is not smooth. There is endless poetry in Qing poetry. Li Bai didn't know that he would remain immortal in later generations, but he readily recognized it and was proud of the title of fallen immortal at that time. Here, Li Bai drunk himself in Jiangnan. Compared with the drunken tour of Taibai Star, his playful and unrestrained posture is admirable.
