The Yangtze River splits the Tianmen Peak like a giant axe, and the green river flows around the island.
The green hills on both sides are neck and neck, and a boat meets leisurely from the horizon.
2. Translation
Tianmen Mountain was broken in the middle by the Chu River, and the clear water flowed eastward and turned back here.
The towering green hills on both sides of the river stand across the Yangtze River, and a solitary boat on the river is coming from the edge of the sun.

The highest cliff is less than a foot from heaven, and the withered pine trees hang low on the cliff surface. One thousand waterfalls rushed forward one after another, sending out the thunder of rotating stones in ten thousand valleys. You've come a long way at all risks!
Although the pass of the watchtower is strong and steep, one person guards it and ten thousand people can't beat it.
2. Translation
The steep mountain peak less than a foot away from the sky, the withered pine hanging upside down, the waterfall hitting the boulder, rolling in the valley, making a thunderous noise. Why does such a dangerous place have to come here as a long-distance relationship?
Not to mention the majestic Cui Wei Jiange, here, although one person guards it, ten thousand people can't force it.

Creative background and appreciation:
Wangtianmen Mountain 1
Wangtianmen Mountain was written at the turn of spring and summer in the 13th year of Emperor Xuanzong of Tang Dynasty (725). At the age of 25, Li Baichu left Bashu and took a boat to Jiangdong via Dangtu (now Anhui), passing Tianmen Mountain for the first time.
The poem describes the poet's sight of Tianmen Mountain downstream: the first two sentences describe the grandeur of Tianmen Mountain and the momentum of the mighty river; The last two sentences describe the prospect of looking through the gap between the green hills on both sides of the strait, showing a dynamic beauty.
Through the description of Tianmen Mountain, the whole poem praises the magic and magnificence of nature, expresses the author's optimistic and heroic feelings when he first came to Bashu, and shows the author's free and unrestrained spirit.
The artistic conception of the works is broad, the weather is majestic, the dynamic and static are in harmony with each other, and they set each other off as interesting, and they can turn static into dynamic and dynamic into static, showing a fresh interest.
2, "Shu Dao Nan"
Some scholars believe that this poem may have been written by Li Bai when he sent his good friend Wang Yan to Shu in Chang 'an from the first year to the third year (742-744), in order to persuade Wang Yan not to detain Shu and return to Chang 'an as soon as possible, so as not to be caught by jealous villains. Some scholars believe that this poem was given to a friend by Li Baichu as a gift when he entered Chang 'an in Kaiyuan.
This poem imitates the theme of the old Yuefu, develops rich imagination in a romantic way, and artistically reproduces the spectacular, abrupt, tough, rugged Sichuan road and the incomparable majestic momentum, thus praising the magnificent scenery of Sichuan mountains and rivers, showing the magnificent mountains and rivers of the motherland, and fully expressing the poet's romantic temperament and love for nature.
