Original text:
Upstairs, desire rests at dusk, and the jade staircase cuts across the moon like a hook.
The plantains do not show their lilac knots, but they are facing the same spring breeze and are each worried.
Translation:
I climbed up a tall building at dusk and wanted to lean on the railing to overlook the distance, but in the end I gave up sadly. The jade staircase crosses across, and a crescent moon in the sky sheds a faint light. The heart of the banana has not yet unfolded, while the buds of the lilac are clustered like knots; the same spring breeze blows, but the two of them are in the same heart in different places, and they are both worried about not being able to meet each other.
Appreciation
This is a poem that describes a woman who misses her lover. The woman in the poem lives in a high-rise building. At dusk, she misses her lover due to boredom. The more she missed him, the more she longed to see him, wishing that he would appear in front of the building immediately. She couldn't control her anxiety and walked to the front of the building, wanting to look into the distance to see if he was coming. .
But he suddenly thought that he would definitely not be able to come. How did he know that he was missing him? Even if he knew, how could he come so quickly? She had no choice but to stop and go back inside the building. Her desire was still there, and she wanted to see him but couldn't. This complicated mood tortured her and made her restless, wandering around the building. This sentence fully expresses the woman's complex and contradictory psychology and her lonely, boring and disappointed mood.
