In the distance, I saw the shepherd boy riding a cow slowly through the front village, and the breeze sent bursts of shepherd flutes across the ridge. Those who seek fame and gain in Chang 'an are not so carefree as you.
Original poem:
Riding cattle and piccolo blowing through the village thousands of villages away.
How many Chang 'an fame and fortune guests, organ failure is not as good as jun.

Poetry appreciation
This poem compares people who pursue fame and gain with leisurely shepherds and children, showing their rejection of fame and fortune. In the shepherd boy's world, there is no fear, and there is no "fear since ancient times", only "piccolo playing horizontally".
According to modern children's literature, "adulthood does not mean farewell to childhood, but the reappearance and expansion of childhood on a higher life ladder" and "people more or less want to cling to the ideal realm of childhood and show their rebellion against the god of fate and all the forces around them that try to devour us".
This is the image of a shepherd boy. In this kind of poems, the poet expresses the rejection and burnout of officialdom fame and fortune by observing the ideal life realm of the shepherd boy.
