People come back. Like people in Michelle, I can only play the flute, and I am disappointed.
On one side of the boat, Qian Fan races; At the head of the sick tree, every year is a spring shower.
Today, listen to you sing a song, drink a glass of wine and cheer up.
translate
I spent twenty-three years in the desolate places of Bashan and Chushui.
Missing an old friend, reciting Xiao Fu in vain, and returning home for a long time is not the past.
Next to the sunken ship, there is a passing Qian Fan, but before the diseased tree, there is a struggle in spring.
After listening to the poem you recited to me today, I can cheer up with this wine for the time being.
Classic statement
On one side of the boat, Qian Fan races; At the head of the sick tree, every year is a spring shower.

Couplets, borrowing allusions, imply that the poet has been relegated for a long time, expressing the cold changes in the world and the unfamiliar disappointment after returning. Neck couplet is the emotional sublimation of the whole poem, and it is also an epigram that has been passed down through the ages. The poet compares himself to a sinking ship and a sick tree, which means that although he has been degraded repeatedly, new people come forth in large numbers, but it is also gratifying, showing his open mind. Couplets point out the significance of reward and express the poet's will to rejoin life and his perseverance.
