Tang Dynasty: Li Bai
The old friend bid farewell to the Yellow Crane Tower in the west, and fireworks descended from Yangzhou in March.
The shadow of the lone sail in the distance is gone in the blue sky, and only the Yangtze River can be seen flowing in the sky. (Wei Tong: Wei)
Translation: My old friend waved goodbye to the Yellow Crane Tower frequently, and went on a long trip to Yangzhou in March when catkins were like smoke and flowers were blooming.
The shadow of the friend's lone boat gradually moved away and disappeared at the end of the blue sky. Only a line of the Yangtze River was seen, rushing towards the distant sky.
2. Rain Linling · Chilling cicadas are mournful
Song Dynasty: Liu Yong
The chilling cicadas are mournful, facing the pavilion at night, and the showers have begun to stop. There is no trace of drinking in the tent of the capital, and the place of nostalgia is the orchid boat. Doubted see tears in their eyes, even Yuning choke. The thought goes away, thousands of miles of smoke waves, the dusk is heavy and the sky is vast.
Translation: The cicadas in the autumn screamed so sadly and urgently. Facing the pavilion, it was evening, and a heavy rain had just stopped.
We set up a tent outside Kyoto to say goodbye, but we were not in the mood to have a drink. When we were reluctant to leave, the people on the boat were already urging us to set off.
We held hands and looked at each other, with tears streaming down our faces. Until the end, we were speechless, with thousands of words stuck in our throats.
Thinking of going back to the south, one journey after another, thousands of miles away, a sea of ??smoke, and the misty night sky in Chudi is actually endless.

Lanling has fine wine and tulips, and jade bowls hold amber light. ?
But the host can make the guests drunk, and they don’t know where they are in a foreign country.
Translation: Lanling wine is sweet and mellow, just like the aroma of tulip wine.
Xinglai is full of jade bowls, glowing with amber light and crystal clear and charming.
If the host serves such good wine, he will surely make the guests from a foreign country drunk.
In the end, how can we tell where is our hometown?
