The fairy of the past has flown away by the yellow crane, leaving only an empty Yellow Crane Tower. The yellow crane never revisited earth, there have been no long white clouds for thousands of years.
Every tree in Hanyang has become clear due to sunlight, and Nautilus Island is covered with sweet grass. But I looked home, and the twilight was getting thicker. The river is shrouded in mist, which brings people deep melancholy.
Interpretation of vernacular Chinese: The immortal of the past has flown away with the Yellow Crane, leaving only an empty Yellow Crane Tower here. The yellow crane never came back. For thousands of years, only Hanyang trees can be clearly seen in the long white clouds and sunshine, and Nautilus Island is covered with a piece of green grass. It is getting late. Looking into the distance, where is my hometown? In front of me, I saw a mist hanging over the river, which brought people deep sorrow.

About the author: Cui Hao (704-754), born in Bianzhou (now Kaifeng City, Henan Province), was a poet in the Tang Dynasty. In the 11th year of Kaiyuan (AD 723), Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty was a scholar, and he was an official at Taibu Temple, serving as a foreign minister of Sixun. The most famous is his Yellow Crane Tower, which contains 42 poems.
This poem is a masterpiece of nostalgia. The author of the first poem had high hopes for the Yellow Crane Tower to come here, but the immortal drove the crane without a trace, and the crane left the building empty. In front of him was an ordinary river tower. The gap between the beautiful vision and the ordinary river building has laid a lost background in the poet's heart and laid a potential foreshadowing for the expression of homesickness complex.
Zhuan Xu's "White Clouds" is unpredictable, which embodies the author's unpredictable sigh, expresses the poet's illusory feeling of the hard time and the blank world, and also paves the way for writing infinite sadness about his hometown, thus becoming a famous sentence full of affection and repeated taste. Necklace couplets have changed from writing illusory legends to writing what they see in front of them, depicting an empty and distant picture, paving the way for the poet's homesickness.
The poem ends with a "worry", which accurately expresses the poet's mood of boarding the Yellow Crane Tower at dusk, and at the same time, with the metaphor at the beginning, expresses his lingering homesickness with ups and downs, so as to convey his feelings, convey his feelings internally and echo externally.
