Swallows have gone, and there is a time to come again; Willow withered, there is a time to green again; Peach blossoms have withered, but they will bloom again. But, smart, tell me, why are our days gone forever? Someone stole them: who is that? Where is it hidden? They escaped by themselves.-Where are they now?
Go wherever you go, and come wherever you come; What's the hurry between going and coming? When I get up in the morning, two or three sunsets shoot into the hut. The sun has feet, and it has moved gently and quietly; I also follow the rotation blankly. So-when washing your hands, the days passed from the basin.
When eating, the days pass from the rice bowl; When I was silent, I passed by my eyes. I think he is in a hurry. When I reached out to cover my arm, he passed by the covered hand again. When I was lying in bed at dark, he passed me and flew away from my feet.
The past days, like smoke, were scattered by the breeze, like fog, evaporated by Chu Yang; What traces did I leave? Did I leave traces like hairspring? I came into this world naked, and I will go back naked in the blink of an eye? But it can't be flat. Why did you come for nothing this time?

Creative background:
It was hastily written in March 1922, which coincided with the ebb tide of the May 4th Movement. [4]? At that time, the May 4th intellectuals were busy saving the country and pursuing progress. They were oppressed by the political environment at that time, but they did not stop pursuing progress; They are very distressed and hesitant, but after calm meditation, they continue to catch up with the road of life.
Zhu Ziqing was disappointed with the reality of the ebb tide of the May 4th Movement, but the author was not willing to sink in hesitation. Zhu Ziqing stood on the standpoint of "neutralization" and persistently explored and pursued it.
The author thinks: "Every process of life has its own meaning and value-every moment has its meaning and value! Every moment has its considerable position in continuous time. " Zhu Ziqing relies on spring to stimulate inner feelings and let go of beauty with imagination.
In a hurry shows the young intellectuals' exploration of the future. As a petty-bourgeois intellectual, the author feels the pulse of the times. Zhu Ziqing's heart is full of confusion that he can't find a way out. What the author reveals is not only personal helplessness, but also some young people who love life and pursue progress at that time, and they are also confused and depressed.
