Taihuaguan
Tang Libai
There are too many floors in the city, and there are people in the depths of white clouds.
Taoist children play the flute for the moon, while immortals drive the clouds.
The mountain is sitting on a tiger, and the old vine is like a snake.
I heard that Yujing Jinhe is here to meet with Penglai Division Changhua.
The translation is as follows:
After the steep stone steps, I went to Taihua Mountain, and there were people living in the depths of white clouds.
Taoist children play the flute on the moon, and refined people drive away like clouds and fog.
Strange rocks are piled together like tigers sitting, and old vines are wrapped around branches like coiled snakes.
I once heard that Yujing and Jinhe are still there, and Penglai can splash ten feet when they meet.
Appreciation is as follows:
This poem begins with the vision of Taihua Road, with the stone building winding up, and the place where the smoke cage locks the fog is the place where Taihua View is located, so as to show the sublime and extraordinary scenery.
I wrote a close-up view, watching the master travel far away, and the Taoist boy playing the flute under the moon at leisure, which was far-reaching and touching, and also showed the carefree life of a debut.
Rocks crouched around the temple like tigers, and strange vines wrapped around the trees danced like snakes, vividly depicting and adding the magical color of Taihuaguan. Finally, the legend is quoted to implicitly explain that Taihuaguan, like Penglai Fairy Mountain, is the lingshan scenic spot of Taoism.
Li Bai, who is good at wandering immortals, has contacts not only with Yong Zun, who lives in seclusion in Taihua Mountain, but also with Taoist priests who practice in Taihua Temple. He wrote about visiting the Taoist priest who paid a visit to Taihua Temple, showing the ancient and quiet scenery in the mountains, describing the melodious flute and the realm of leisurely roaming in the clouds under the moon in the mountains, suggesting that the Taoist priest went out to travel and never met.
