Li Bai’s poems about the Yellow Crane Tower are as follows:
1. The old friend bid farewell to the Yellow Crane Tower in the west, and the fireworks descended from Yangzhou in March. The shadow of the lone sail in the distance is gone in the blue sky, and only the Yangtze River can be seen flowing in the sky. ——The Yellow Crane Tower sends Meng Haoran to Guangling"
2. Looking east to the Yellow Crane Mountain, the majestic figure appears in the sky. There are white clouds on all sides, and the middle peak leans against the red sun. The rocks and mountains range across the sky, and the peaks are densely packed. It is said that many immortals learned the art of flying here. Once facing Penghai, there is an empty stone chamber for thousands of years. The golden stove is full of smoke, and the jade pool is mysterious and quiet. The ancient relics of grass and trees on the ground, the cold and old mushrooms in the courtyard. Jian Yu is eager to climb the road because he wants to maintain his leisure. The wonders can be seen all over the mountains, but these mountains are incomparable. ——"Looking at the Yellow Crane Tower"
3. I went to Changsha to move to Changsha, but when I looked west to Chang'an, I couldn't see my home. The jade flute is played in the Yellow Crane Tower, and the plum blossoms fall in May in Jiangcheng. ——"Listening to the Flute Playing on the Yellow Crane Tower with Shi Lang Zhongqin"
4. When I was in the Badong Three Gorges, I looked at the bright moon in the west and recalled Emei. The moon rises above Emei and shines on the sea, accompanying people for thousands of miles. The moon was white in front of the Yellow Crane Tower, and a visitor from Emei was suddenly seen. The moon of Mount Emei returns to you, and the wind blows westward to Chang'an. The Chang'an Avenue stretches across the sky, and the Emei Mountain moon shines on Qinchuan. The golden lion rides on a high seat, and the white jade crocodile tail talks about the mysteries. ——"The Moon Song of Mount Emei Sends Sichuan Monk Yan to Beijing"
5. People in the past have gone by Yellow Crane, and the Yellow Crane Tower is vacant here. The yellow crane is gone and never returns, and the white clouds remain empty for thousands of years. Qingchuan is full of Hanyang trees, and the grass is luxuriant and Parrot Island is green. ——"Climbing the Yellow Crane Tower"
