Cao Cao's poems end with lofty aspirations.

There are "watching the sea" and "although the tortoise is long".

First, "looking at the sea"

1, original:

On the east coast, climb Jieshi Mountain to see the vast sea.

The sea is so vast that the islands stand high on the sea.

Trees and paraquat are very lush. Autumn wind makes trees make sad sounds, and the sea is surging.

The movement of the sun and the moon seems to come from the vast ocean.

Journey to the sun and the moon, if you go out.

Han is a talented star, if you take him by surprise.

I am glad to use this poem to express my inner desire.

2. Translation:

Go east, climb Jieshi Mountain and enjoy the boundless sea.

How vast the sea is, and the mountain island stands high on the seaside.

Trees and herbs flourish.

The autumn wind blows the trees and makes a sad sound, and the sea is rough.

The movement of the sun and the moon seems to emanate from this vast ocean.

The Milky Way galaxy is full of stars, as if they were born from this vast ocean.

I am very happy, so I use this poem to express my inner ambition.

Second, "The tortoise is alive"

1, original:

Although the tortoise has a long life, it still has its time.

A poisonous snake flew in the fog and was finally covered with dust.

The old horse lurks, aiming at a thousand miles.

The martyrs were full of courage in their later years.

Surplus and contraction periods are not just in the sky.

Blessings that nourish grace can last forever.

I am glad to use this poem to express my inner desire.

2. Translation:

Although the tortoise has a long life, its life will end one day;

Although Teng snake can break through clouds and fog, it will eventually die and turn to dust.

Although the old swift horse is squatting by the manger, its ambition is still to gallop thousands of miles;

Even in old age, people who aim high will not stop trying to make progress.

The length of a person's life is not just determined by heaven;

Take care of your body and mind, and you will live longer.

Very lucky. Use singing to express your thoughts and feelings.

Extended data:

First, the creative background of Looking at the Sea:

Wuhuan was a great disaster in Northeast China at that time. In the 11th year of Jian 'an (2006), Wu Huan invaded Youzhou and captured more than 100,000 Han people. In the same year, Yuan Shang and Yuan, the sons of Yuan Shao, colluded with Ta Dun, the leader of Wuhuan in western Liaoning, and repeatedly harassed the border, so that Cao Cao had to resolutely decide to conquer Wuhuan in the 12th year of Jian 'an (207). Later, under the guidance of Tian Chou, he used tricks.

Cao Cao finally won a decisive victory in the great war in August this year. This victory consolidated Cao Cao's rear areas and laid the foundation for the next year's conquest of the south, with a view to realizing the grand aspiration of reunifying China. "Looking at the Sea" is about the time when Wu Huan, who won the Northern Expedition, crossed Jieshi Mountain and returned to Li.

Second, the creative background of Gui Although Shou:

In the tenth year of Jian 'an (205), Cao Cao destroyed Yuan Shao's ruling foundation in Hebei, and Yuan Shao vomited blood and died. His sons, Yuan Tan and Yuan Shang, fled to Wuhuan and colluded with Wuhuan nobles many times. In order to get rid of the passive situation, Cao Cao took the advice of Guo Jia, a counselor, and led his army north in the summer of the 12th year of Jian 'an (207). From May to July, nothing came of it. Later, he accepted Tian Chou's suggestion and changed his course flatly. After Xu Wushan, he left Lu and directed his finger at Liucheng, winning the first world war.

In September, when he returned to Li Chenggong and passed through Jieshi and other places, Cao Cao wrote a set of poems "Out of Xiamen". This is the fourth poem in a series, written a little later than Watching the Sea, at the end of 2007 or the beginning of 2008, that is, after he put down the rebellion in Wuhuan and eliminated the remnants of Yuan Shao, before he conquered Jing and Wu in the south. At this time, Cao Cao is 53 years old. Looking back on his own life, he has this article, and he feels infinite.

Three. Brief introduction of the author

Cao Cao (155—220), born in Mengde, was an outstanding politician, strategist and writer in Jian 'an era. In the first year of Jian 'an (196), he met Xu Di (now Henan), took him as a vassal, and successively put down the separatist forces such as Lu Bu.

After the battle of Guandu defeated warlord Yuan Shao, the northern part of China was gradually unified. In the 13th year of Jian 'an, he ascended the position of Prime Minister, led his troops south, and was defeated by Sun Quan and Liu Bei in Chibi. Wang Wei was later blocked. His son Cao Pi proclaimed himself emperor and made him Emperor Wu.
