Yu Youren's famous patriotic poem "Looking at the Mainland" was published on November 10, 1964. Mr. Yu Youren later passed away in Taipei. Mr. Yu Youren, who lived in Taiwan, China in his later years, was very eager to return to his roots, but he failed to do so. On January 12, 1962, he wrote in his diary: "After a hundred years, I would like to be buried in a high place with many trees in Yushan or Alishan. The mountain should be high and the trees should be big. I can always look at the mainland. My hometown is Mainland China." On January 24, 1962, Mr. Yu Youren wrote the sincere and melancholy poem "Looking at the Mainland".
This is an elegy he wrote for his hometown in mainland China. His nostalgia for his country is beyond words. It is a swan song that touches the deep pain in the souls of the descendants of Yan and Huang.
