Original text (excerpt):
Oh, let a man with spirit take risks where he wants to go, and never point his golden cup at the moon empty! .
Since God has given talents, let them be used! As for the money, although it is scattered, it will get together again.
Translation:
When you are proud of your life, you should enjoy the joy to the fullest, and don't empty the golden cup for the bright moon.
God created my talent, which will be useful, and I can get it again after Huang Jinhua's death.

Spin a thousand silver coins and come back! ! This is another amazing word of high self-confidence, which can drive money instead of being made by money, enough to make all ordinary people stunned. Poetry is like a man, thinking that the poet "traveled thousands of miles to the east and scattered more than 300 thousand in less than one year" ("History of Shang 'an Peichang") is a heroic move. Therefore, this sentence is a deep pride in the bones, and it is by no means that a poseur can get one tenth.
This poem vividly embodies Li Bai's unruly character: full of self-confidence, arrogance and enthusiasm. "Since God has given talents, let them find jobs!" And "Oh, let a man with spirit take risks where he likes". The whole poem is full of heroic momentum, unrestrained feelings, fluent words and strong appeal. Li Bai's wine poems can best reflect his personality, profound ideological content and mature artistic expression. Into the Wine is his masterpiece.
