Origin: Deng Fei Laifeng is a seven-character quatrain written by Wang Anshi, a writer and politician in the Northern Song Dynasty.
Original text:
There is a towering tower at the top of Feilai Peak. It is said that crows come and the morning sun rises. ?
As written in a China poem, we are not afraid of dark clouds covering our sight, because we are already on the top of the mountain.
Translation:
It is said that the rising sun can be seen at dawn on the tower with extremely high Feilai Peak. I'm not afraid of clouds covering my eyes, just because I'm the highest level now.
Appreciation of works:
This poem is different from ordinary climbing poems. This poem doesn't write much about the scene in front of us, only about the height of the tower. The key point is to write about the feeling of climbing high, which embodies the concept of "standing high can only see far"
This is similar to Wang Zhihuan's poem, "But when you walk up a flight of stairs, you broaden your horizons by 300 miles". The former shows the ideological realm and heroism of a political reformer, while the latter shows that to achieve better results, more efforts need to be made to encourage each other or encourage themselves.
"I am not afraid of clouds covering my eyes, but I am afraid of the highest realm." With Su Shi, "I don't know the true face of Lushan Mountain, but toward which corner of the mountain." In the same strain, the expression is very similar. In terms of affirmation, Wang's poems are metaphorical: "If you master the method of correct views and reach a certain level of understanding, you can see the essence through phenomena and you will not be confused by the illusion of things."
Su Shi, on the other hand, is negative. He said, "People are confused by the illusion of things because they don't observe things comprehensively, objectively and correctly." Both of them are very philosophical and often used as mottoes.
