Spray, noise.

According to the query Chinese website, white waves (symbolizing the ship sailing offshore) and the sound of chains (symbolizing the ship reaching its destination and breaking down).

Hope is a new poem written by modern poet Ai Qing 1979 in March. This poem is divided into two sections. The first section is two floors, only comparing the conversations between two seafarers. The second section reveals the meaning contained in seafarers' words. The surface layer is seafarers' different life philosophy, while the deep layer covers all people's different attitudes towards life. The image of this poem is extremely simple, but the meaning is extremely profound and dignified, and the language is crisp and vivid.
