The translation of the ancient poem Wangtianmen Mountain is as follows:
Tianmen Mountain is divided into two mountains by the Yangtze River. Qinghe flows east here and suddenly turns a corner to flow north. The green hills on both sides of the strait are opposite, and a leaf boat comes leisurely from the distance where the water meets the sky, as if from the horizon.
Original: Tianmen cut off the Chu River and Higashi Shimizu River. The green hills on both sides are neck and neck, and a boat meets leisurely from the horizon.
Tianmen Mountain is the collective name of Liangdong Mountain (called Wang Boshan in ancient times) in dangtu county, Anhui Province and West Liangshan Mountain in Hexian County. The confrontation between the two mountains and the river is like a natural gateway, and the situation is very dangerous, hence the name "Tianmen".
The word "Wang" in the title of the poem shows the magnificent scenery overlooking Tianmen Mountain. Many annotations in the past often misunderstood poetry because they didn't have a clear foothold of "hope".
