The winding Yellow River is very long, carrying a lot of yellow sand. The Yellow River is choppy and comes from the horizon. Now I'm heading straight for the Milky Way against the wind and waves, going to the door of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl.
The quatrains in "Langtaosha" express the yearning for a better life in the tone of a gold digger. They all live by the river. The Tianhe River where the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl live is quiet and beautiful, while the gold diggers along the Yellow River run around in the wind and waves all day. They went straight to the Milky Way and ran to the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl, pinning their heroic spirit and enterprising feelings.
