On the Double Ninth Festival, I climbed up and looked at my hometown. I drank the farewell wine at the farewell banquet in a foreign land and felt endless sadness. My heart is tired of all the sorrows of living in the south, and I can't go back. Why do the geese come from the north again.
2. Wild goose: sad journey.
"Farewell to the Capital of Wei Wan" Tang Dynasty: Li Qi
In the morning I heard that the wanderers were singing songs of departure, and they first crossed the river with a slight frost last night. The swan geese can't bear to listen to the sorrow. The situation of Yunshan is like that of a guest.
The color of the trees in Guancheng is getting colder, and the sound of anvils in the imperial garden is getting louder in the evening. Don't see Chang'an as a place of happiness, it will make the years easy to be wasted.
Interpretation:
I heard the wanderers singing farewell songs in the morning. There was a thin frost last night and you crossed the Yellow River early in the morning. A melancholy person is most afraid of hearing the cry of swan geese, and the coldness of the clouds and mountains is even more unbearable for lonely passers-by. The morning light in Tongguan urges the cold air to approach the capital, and the sound of pounding clothes in the late autumn in the capital becomes more frequent in the evening. Please don't think that Chang'an is a place for pleasure, so as not to waste your precious time in vain.

The cool breeze is blowing from the sky. How do you feel? It makes me miss you so much. I wonder when you will receive my letter? I'm just afraid that the rivers and lakes are dangerous and the autumn water is full of storms. The most taboo in writing poetry is a frank destiny, and the most tabooed thing about a villain is that good people make mistakes. You share the same fate as Qu Zi, who was wronged. You should throw poems into the Miluo River to express your grievances and injustices.

"The East City is High and Long" Han Dynasty: Anonymous
The East City is high and long, winding and connected. The returning wind is blowing, and the autumn grass is already green.
The four seasons change, and the end of the year comes so quickly! The morning breeze is full of painstaking efforts, and the cricket is hurt and cramped.
What is the end of one’s emotions? There are many beauties in Yanzhao, and the beautiful ones are as beautiful as jade.
Wearing clothes in Luo Shangyi, we can sort out the music at home. How sad is the sound! The string is urgent and the column is urgent.
The whole turban is full of affection, chatting and wandering in silence. Thinking of two flying swallows, holding a mud nest in the king's house.
Interpretation:
Outside the east gate of Luoyang, there is a high city wall. Walking around the long and winding rows of buildings and houses, we returned to our original place. The surrounding fields are vast, and in a blink of an eye, the autumn wind is stirring on the earth again. The whirlwind blowing from bottom to top in the open place was like shaking the earth. The green grass and fields in the past suddenly became desolate and gray.
A year has passed in the blink of an eye! In a frustrated state of mind, even listening to the chirping of birds and insects in the sky and earth can make people depressed. Birds of prey chirp bitterly in the wind, and crickets cry sadly as the cold autumn approaches. Not only life, but all life in nature feels the passage of time. Instead of restraining yourself everywhere, wait until old age to lament and lament.
Why not get rid of worries earlier, let go of your feelings, and seek the joy of life! There are many beauties in the land of Yanzhao and Waluo, and the beauties are as beautiful as jade. Wearing a thin Luo Shang dress that flutters in the wind, he sits upright with a graceful manner and practices the music of Zheng Shang. The song "How Sad Is the Sound" is because the harp pillars are tuned too tightly, and the sound of the harp sounds like a sudden rain and wind, which sounds extremely sad and moving.
Because listening to the music moved my heart, I unconsciously aroused my reverie, and my hands were playing with my clothes and belts, unable to relieve my melancholy mood. I muttered it repeatedly, my feet hesitated, moved by the beauty's deep melody. In my heart, I thought about becoming a pair of swallows with my beautiful woman, building a nest with mud in my mouth and becoming deeply affectionate forever.
