Give your soul to your master.
Don Liu Changqing
Blue chikurinji, near the distant bell in the middle of the night.
The sunset with a hat gradually returned to Qingshan.
Make an appreciative comment
The first two sentences of the poem are mainly about scenery, and scenery also contains feelings. With the pen of imagination, the poet created the secluded land of Qingyuan. The last two sentences of this poem describe Che Ling's farewell and return. Qingshan should be the first sentence of "from the temple, deep in its tender bamboo", pointing out that the temple is in the mountains. Traveling Alone shows the poet standing and watching, reluctant to go, and doing something. The whole poem expresses the poet's deep affection for Che Ling, and also shows Che Ling's quiet manner of returning to the mountains, highlighting the author's lonely state of mind.
