2. The Phoenix swam to Huangtai, which has been abandoned in this deserted river.
Translation:
Li Bai's use of "Phoenix Terrace" is not an ordinary emotional expression, but an organic one. Since ancient times, the phoenix has always been regarded as auspicious, which is related to the development of society: in a beautiful era, the phoenix bird descended from the sky and made a sound of nature. Therefore, the appearance of phoenix birds mostly shows the meaning of praise.
However, the Phoenix that Li Bai first pointed out here is just the opposite: he expresses the infinite feelings caused by prosperity and perishable, and sacred time is hard to exist, only eternal scenery. Gone are the Yuanjia era, which attracted the phoenix, and the prosperous Six Dynasties, leaving only the vastness of the Yangtze River and the towering Phoenix Mountain.
Appreciate:
This poem comes from Li Bai's "Climbing the Phoenix Terrace in Nanjing" in the Tang Dynasty. Starting with the legend of Phoenix Terrace, Li Bai expressed his feelings about the change of time and space. "Phoenix, which used to play here, so that this place is named after them, has now abandoned it and come to this desolate river" is natural, lively and fluent; Although the fourteen words use three "phoenix" characters, they don't make people feel repetitive at all, and there is no such rigid problem as common poems. Phoenix Terrace is located in the southwest of Jinling Old Town.
