Ah, master, how can the world repay your long-term concern? .
The lords of Zou misjudged your land, and your home was regarded as Lu's palace.
You predict that when the phoenix disappears, your fate will end, and you know that the captured unicorn will be the symbol of your teaching dose.
Will this sacrifice I saw between two temple pillars be the same death omen that you dreamed of a long time ago? .
Vernacular translation
Dear Kong Old Master Q, you have worked hard all your life and traveled around the world. What exactly do you want to achieve? Today, this place is still a city in Jixian County, and you are finally buried in the land where you were born. However, your old house was destroyed by later generations and converted into Lu Palace.
When you were born, the phoenix bird didn't arrive, and you sighed that your life was not good; When Kirin appeared, you were sad and plaintive, lamenting that the world was chaotic and poor. You have been unhappy all your life. Look at you sitting in front of the hall today, accepting the memorial of future generations. Just like what you saw in your dream before you died, you must feel a little comfort.
2, "Ji Hai Miscellaneous Poems, Episode V" Qing Gong Zizhen
The vast sadness of parting extends to the setting sun, away from Beijing, riding a whip to the east, feeling that people are on earth.
I quit my job and go home, just like a flower falling from a branch, but this is not a heartless thing. It can be turned into the soil of spring and can also play a role in nurturing the next generation.

3. Bing Xin in The Book of Songs
The jade pot has a heart of ice, and the brush writes the soul of the teacher.
Enthusiasm is like a father's language, and talk like a friend.
A few lines of light words will accompany you for a lifetime.
I hope that the latecomers can successfully report to the master.
Vernacular translation
The teacher's pure sentiment before his death praised the soul of the late teacher with his warm scarlet pen. Vaguely remember what the teacher said, teaching is like a father; Although we are not apprentices, our friendship is with relatives and friends. Although humble people have only a few words, they seem so light and inadequate; But I have written down all the tireless spirit of my teacher. I hope future friends will repay their teachers with success.

5, "On the Tomb of the Prime Minister of Liufang" Tang Du Fu
I had to come back from this distant place, and I dismounted next to your lonely grave.
The place where I stood was wet with my tears, and the sky was dark with broken clouds.
I once played chess with the Prime Minister, and now I want to take the dagger he wants to my master.
But I only saw petals falling, and I only heard Suzaku respond.
Vernacular translation
I am wandering, traveling to other places again and again. Today, I stopped in Longzhou to pay tribute to your lonely grave. Tears wet the soil, and I feel extremely sad and trance, just like a broken cloud flying low. When I played chess with you, I thanked you for your Jin Dynasty. Now I'm at your grave, just like Ji Zha saying goodbye to Xu Jun. I can't bear to look back. Before my eyes, I saw this patchwork of forest flowers. When I left, I heard oriole crying, and it smelled terrible.
