The mist and rain in Lushan Mountain and the tide in Zhejiang Province are not yet here, and I can’t bear to let them go.
It’s okay to come back and have nothing to do, Lushan Mountain is misty and rainy, Zhejiang tide is rising.
Translation:
The beautiful and mysterious misty rain in Lushan Mountain and the majestic tides of Qiantang River are worth watching. If you don’t have the opportunity to watch the misty rain in Lushan Mountain and the tides of Qiantang River, you will regret it for the rest of your life.
I finally visited Lushan and Zhejiang in person, and saw the misty rain and surging tides, but I found that the impulsive and delusional thoughts in the past were just that, and there was no surprise. I just felt that the misty rain in Lushan was the misty rain in Lushan, and the tide in Zhejiang was the tide in Zhejiang.
Note:
Zhejiang tide: refers to the tide of Qiantang River. Zhejiang, Qiantang River.
Hate: Regret.

One day, Su Shi arrived at Mount Lu. The famous mountains and rivers are full of wonderful weather. It was a clear day. Su Shi and a few friends went to the mountain to visit the temple. Approaching a mountain temple, I saw beautiful pavilions, lush trees, and white walls. An old monk came out to greet me. "Excuse me, the donor, is he a layman from Dongpo? I have admired you for a long time. I have admired you for a long time. The old monk has been waiting here for many days. Please give me a treasure of calligraphy for my temple." Su Shi took the pen and ink from the young monk and without thinking, he painted on the white wall. wrote this poem.
Appreciation:
This poem writes about the mist and rain in Lushan Mountain and the tide in Zhejiang. I have never been there and seen it, and I feel that there are thousands of regrets in my heart, which cannot be eliminated. Once one day I've been there and seen it before, but I don't think it's anything new. Before I have seen it, I was always full of yearning and expectation, and then I tried every means to pursue and realize it. Once I saw it with my own eyes, immersed myself in it, got it and owned it, it felt normal. This poem is quite Zen-like, and the whole poem shows the three processes of pursuing truth in life.
