The original poem is as follows
Qinyuan Spring·Snow
Modern Times: Mao Zedong
The scenery of the North is covered with thousands of miles of ice and thousands of miles of snow.
Looking inside and outside the Great Wall, there is nothing but vastness; the river up and down suddenly stops flowing. (Yu Tong: Yu)
Silver snakes dance in the mountains, and they are like wax figures, hoping to compete with God. (Original work by Yuan Chi: Yuan Qi)
It must be a clear day, and the red clothes and plain clothes are particularly enchanting. (Red Equipment: Silver Equipment)
The country is so beautiful that countless heroes are competing to bow down.
I regret that Emperor Qin and Han Wu were slightly less talented in literature; Tang Zongzong and Song Zu were slightly less elegant.
The genius of the generation, Genghis Khan, only knew how to bend a bow and shoot at giant eagles.
It’s all gone, let’s count the famous people, but let’s look at the present.
Translation
The scenery in the north is covered with thousands of miles of ice and thousands of miles of snowflakes. Looking inside and outside the Great Wall, there is only boundless whiteness; the vast Yellow River up and down suddenly lost its surging momentum. The mountains are like silver-white pythons flying, and the hills on the plateau are like many white elephants running. They all want to try to compare with God.
You have to wait until it is sunny to see the bright red sunshine and the white snow and ice complement each other, which is particularly beautiful.
Jiangshan is so charming that countless heroes fall in love with her. It is a pity that Qin Shihuang and Han Wu Emperor were slightly less talented in literature; Tang Taizong and Song Taizu were slightly less talented in literature and governance. Genghis Khan, the man who dominated the world, only knew how to draw a bow and shoot at giant eagles. All these characters have passed away. To count the heroes who have made great achievements, we also need to look at the people today. Extended information
