Interpretation of vernacular:
This is Zhang Yu County in the Han Dynasty, and now it is the governor's office of Hongzhou. The position in the sky belongs to the division between two stars, and the position on the ground connects Hengshan and Lushan. Take Sanjiang as the skirt and Five Lakes as the belt, control Chu land and connect Fujian and Vietnam. The essence of things is the treasure of heaven, and the sword light shines directly on the interval between cattle and barrels. Ying Jie is among the people, and because the earth has aura, Fan Chen specially built several couches for Xu Ru.
Magnificent Hongzhou City, houses are like fog, and talents are as active as stars. The city is located in the key place at the junction of Yi and Xia, and the host and guests are all concentrated in the talents in the southeast. Commander-in-chief Yan Guogong enjoys a high reputation. He came to Hongzhou from afar and worked as a shepherd in Yuwen House. He is a model of virtue and stopped here on his way to his post.
On the tenth holiday, outstanding friends gathered together; The distinguished guests came from afar to attend the party. Meng, a literary leader, is a literary talent and dances Cai Feng. In General Wang's armory, there is a sword as sharp as purple electricity and blue frost. Because my father is going to be a county magistrate, I passed this famous place on my way to visit relatives.
Young and ignorant, I was lucky enough to attend this grand banquet in person. It's September, and the autumn is crisp. The water is gone, the pool is clear, the sky is condensed with faint clouds, and the mountains are purple in the twilight. Driving a carriage on a high mountain road, visiting the scenery in the mountain. I came to Changzhou, Di Zi, and found the Wang Teng Pavilion built by Wang Teng.
The mountains overlap here, and the green peaks soar into the sky. A pavilion in the air, a Hong Ting Road is like flying in the sky, and the ground can't be seen from the pavilion. The small continent where white cranes and wild ducks stop, with winding islands, elegant palaces and continuous mountains set each other off.
Pushing open the door of the carved pavilion, overlooking the roof decorated with colorful ornaments, you can have a panoramic view of the peaks and plains, and the twists and turns of the lake and Sichuan are amazing. There are alleys and houses everywhere, and many rich people are eating and drinking. Ge boats are full of ferries, full of big boats carved with green finches and yellow dragons. After the rain clears, the rainbow disappears, the sun shines high, the sunset flies with the lonely geese, and the autumn river is connected with the sky.
At night, the singing of fishing boats resounded through the lake in Peng Li, and the geese screamed when they felt cold. When they look far away, they just feel comfortable, and their detached interest rises immediately. The flute attracted the gentle breeze, and the soft singing attracted the floating white clouds.
Just like the gathering of bamboo forests in Suiyuan, people who are good at drinking here can drink more than Tao Yuanming, the magistrate of Pengze County, just like Shui Ye praised lotus flowers, and the poet's literary talent here is better than that of Xie Lingyun in Linchuan Literature and History. These four beauties (music and diet, articles and words) are all ready, and these two rare conditions (sage and guest) are also done together, so we can look up to the sky and entertain ourselves during the holiday. The sky is vast, which makes people feel that the universe is boundless.
Joy has passed, sadness has come, and I understand that there is a destiny for the rise and fall of things. Looking at Chang 'an in the west and Wu Hui in the east, the land in the south is exhausted, the sea is unfathomable, the Beidou in the north is out of reach, and Tianzhu is out of reach. This mountain is difficult to cross. Who sympathizes with frustrated people? Meet by chance, all strangers in a foreign land. We missed the gate of the palace, but we were not summoned. When can we serve the king? Oh! Everyone's timing is different, and the fate of life is not smooth.
Feng Tang is prone to aging, but Li Guang is rare. Jia Yi was wronged and demoted to Changsha, not because there was no monarch, but because Hongliang fled to Qilu seaside. Isn't this an era of political prosperity? Only a gentleman knows the opportunity, and a prudent man knows his own destiny. Although you are old, you should be more ambitious. How to change your mood when you are old? Although the situation is difficult, we should be more ethical and never give up our lofty aspirations.
Even if you drink from the fountain of greed, you still feel refreshed, and even if you are on a dry main road, you are extremely happy. Although Beihai is far away, the palaces of Yahao can be connected. Although the morning has passed, it is not too late to cherish the night. Meng Changjun's thought is noble, but he holds the enthusiasm of serving the country in vain; Ruan Ji is free, how can he cry like him!
