The poet feels that he is going to die soon, his ambition has not been realized, and he will regret his death.
In the first couplet, the poet is white-haired, leaning on a stick by the stream, independent in the breeze, filled with emotion.
Necklace couplet "The sunset glow on the mountain is green and wild, and the crow rises from the flat sand to cover the sky" empathizes with the scenery: the sunset glow on the mountain is wild and low; The crow rises from the flat sand, and the sky is dark. The word "empty" is full of the author's subjective color-bleak mood.
The couplet expresses the poet's concern for the country and the people, but it is the infinite lament of a scholar who cares about the country and the people.
The ending couplets Dongshan and July are still concerned, but they can't bear the ups and downs in the wine. By recalling the joy of the victory of Duke Zhou's return to his hometown and the farmers' labor activities at that time, compared with the current reality, the court did not act, the world was in chaos and the people suffered greatly. The poet himself was a scholar. When he was old, he drowned his sorrows by drinking and expressed his helplessness and concern for the country and the people. So he died.
