Hello, literal translation: I am alone to dissipate the eternal sorrow, leisurely fishing beside the creek.
"After the Rebellion, I will leave the refuge in Yanzhong as a gift to Cui Xuancheng" is a poem written by the great poet Li Bai of the Tang Dynasty. This poem first writes about the disaster that the Anshi Rebellion brought to the world, then about his own helplessness in the troubled times and his friendship with Cui Ling, and finally about the beautiful scenery in Yanzhong, and persuades Cui Ling to live in seclusion and study Taoism with him. The first part of the poem is composed of sadness and indignation, while the latter part is light and bright, with natural transitions and clever combinations. It is a deeply affectionate parting message.
