Li Bai doesn't have a poem describing Huangguoshu Waterfall, but only a poem named Looking at Lushan Waterfall.
The full text is as follows:
The incense burner in Rizhao produces purple smoke, and the waterfall hangs in front of Sichuan.
It's flying down three thousands of feet, and it's suspected that the Milky Way has set for nine days.
1. Translation:
The sun shines on the incense burner peak and produces purple smoke. From a distance, a waterfall hangs in front of the mountain like a long river.
It seems that three dry feet of water are rushing straight down. Could it be that the Milky Way has fallen from the cliff for nine days?
2. Creation background:
The towering incense burner peak is hidden in the clouds and mist, and looking at the waterfall in the distance is like flying down from the clouds and falling in the sky, which is naturally associated with a galaxy falling from the sky. It can be seen that the metaphor of "Doubt is the Milky Way setting for nine days" is strange, but it does not come out of thin air in the poem, but naturally emerges from the portrayal of the image.
It is exaggerated and natural, novel and true, thus arousing the whole article, making the whole image more colorful and magnificent, which not only left a deep impression on people, but also left room for imagination, showing the artistic style of Li Bai, which is "Wan Li falls down, but the final trend is still strong".
