Full text:
The cost of pure wine is a gold cup, 10 thousand copper coins and a hip flask, and I am ashamed of 10 thousand yuan.
I threw the food bar and cup aside. I couldn't eat or drink. I pulled out my dagger. I peeped in four directions in vain.
I want to cross the Yellow River, but ice will block the ferry and Taihang Mountain will be covered with snow.
I will sit on a fishing rod and lean lazily by the stream, but I suddenly dream of sailing a boat towards the sun.
It's hard to walk, it's hard to walk, there are many roads, where is Ann now?
One day, I will ride the wind and waves, raise the Yun Fan and cross the sea.
Translation:
Jinbei famous wine, per barrel 1000 yuan; The exquisite dishes in the jade plate are worth 10 thousand yuan. I feel depressed in my chest. You can't eat without drinking. Draw your sword and look around, my heart is really at a loss.
Want to cross the Yellow River, ice and snow blocked the river; If you want to climb Taihang Mountain, the vast snow has already closed the mountain. Like Jiang Shang Yuxi, waiting for a comeback; Yi Yin is employed by Shang Tang. How difficult it is! How difficult it is! There are many roads. Where is the real avenue? I believe that one day, I can ride the wind and waves; Hang Yun Fan high and move forward in the sea!

It is hard to go, the first of three original works by Li Bai, was written in the third year of Tianbao (744), when Li Bai was slandered and expelled from Chang 'an. This poem describes his uncontrollable anger when he encountered difficulties on the political road. However, I still hope that one day I will show my ambition, which shows his optimism and heroism about his future life and is full of positive romanticism.
This is the first book in Three Difficult Walks written by Li Bai. Judging from the content, this group of poems should be written by Li Bai when he left Chang 'an in Tianbao Sanzai (744).
