Li Bai's poem praising Yang Guifei

The full text of Three Tunes of Qingping is as follows:

one

Beautiful people who see the bright clouds, think of their clothes and see flowers come to see them.

If Yushan didn't see her, it would be Yaochi meeting under the moon.

Secondly,

A stick of incense and a stick of incense are heartbroken in vain.

Excuse me, who looks like Han Palace? The poor swallow relies on new cosmetics.

third

Famous flowers fall in love and laugh like kings.

Explain that the spring breeze is infinitely hateful, and the agarwood pavilion is northward.

The first song uses metaphors, flowers as metaphors for beauty, and clouds as metaphors for the clothes of noble ladies. When you see clouds, you think of the gorgeous clothes of the imperial concubine, and when you see peony flowers, you think of the charming appearance of the imperial concubine. The spring breeze blows on the railing, and the stamen dew is thicker. If you are not a group of fairies on the top of Yushan Mountain, you can only see the goddess in the Yaotai Temple of the Queen Mother of the West.

The second song uses contrast method to contrast with the famous beauty Zhao in history, which sets off the beauty of the imperial concubine. The imperial concubine is really a pretty peony, with round beads and jade embellishment. Once upon a time, the goddess Chu met in Wushan, leaving only futile sadness. But now you are surprised to see the Han Palace. Who can be as elegant and moving as the imperial concubine? Even the lovely ancient Ye Zhao needs makeup to compare with you.

The third song has always inherited the first two songs, flowers mixed with people, kings mixed with empresses, and wrote the touching love of emperors. Yang Guifei's peerless beauty and red peony complement each other, and her beauty and famous flowers often make Wang laugh. Moving and beautiful, like spring breeze, can eliminate infinite resentment. North of Chenxiang Temple, the king and the imperial concubine are leaning against the railing.
