What does it mean to be simple and simple?

One talks about the sound of drums, and the other describes the dancer’s martial appearance.

"Be simple and be simple, and then thousands of dances will begin" means: The drums are beating loudly, and a grand dance will begin.

Original text:

Simple and simple, you can dance thousands of times. The sun is in the middle, in the front and up.

The majestic person, Yamata, dances thousands of times in the public court. He is as strong as a tiger and holds the bridle like a team.

The left hand holds the robe and the right hand holds the Zhai. He is as impressive as Wo Zhe, and he is known as Xijue.

There are hazelnuts in the mountains and lings in the sky. Who cares? Western beauty. That beauty is here, a person from the West.

Translation:

The drums are beating loudly, and the grand dance is about to begin. The red sun is shining in the sky, and the dance leader stands in front.

The dancer is strong and brave, and performs thousands of dances in the court. His movements are as powerful as a tiger's, and his hand holding the reins is like silk feet.

The left hand is holding the pipe and blowing, and the right hand is waving the pheasant feathers. His face was as red as ocher, and the prince repeatedly said that he would give him wine quickly.

There are hazel trees on the high mountains, and green cockleburs on the low fields. Who are you thinking about? The dancers from all directions are so heroic. That handsome man, he came from the west!

Poem appreciation:

This is a poem describing the grand scene of thousands of dances in the public court, written from the perspective of a female fan Write about the lead dancer. A young woman was sitting in a corner of the courtyard. The woman saw that the grand dance was about to begin. At this time, the first thing that attracts women is the red sun. A great man who makes women admire or tremble is right in front of him in the most conspicuous place. The man has already stood up and is ready to dance.

Get ready to dance. First comes the martial arts dance. I saw the man's bravery and strength, his movements like a tiger, and his amazing momentum. Sometimes he was riding a carriage, holding the bridle freely and relaxed, just like a real driving scene, followed by a literary and dance performance. I saw the man holding a flute in his left hand, playing a melodious and beautiful clear sound; holding a pheasant feather in his right hand, with a thick layer of red mud on his face. The man's performance was praised by the prince.
