Message from Dongting Lake to Premier Zhang.

Tang Dynasty: Meng Haoran

The autumn water rises and almost blends with the shore, mixing water and sky with the sky.

Ozawa's water vapor transpiration on the cloud soil is white, and the waves seem to shake the whole Yueyang.

I'm going to cross the water to find a boat and paddle. It's a shame to return home in the sacred age.

Sitting around watching other people's hard river fishing can only envy the fish caught in the fish.

Autumn water rises, almost flush with the shore, and water and sky are mixed together. Yunmeng Ozawa's water vapor transpiration is in vain, and the waves are like shaking Yueyang City. I want to cross the river, but I can't find a boat or paddle. It's really shameful to idle around in an enlightened age. It's a pity to sit by and watch others fishing hard by the river.

Creation background

This is a poem dedicated by Meng Haoran to Zhang Jiuling, which is considered as the 21st year of Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty (733). At that time, Meng Haoran went west to Chang 'an, and Zhang Jiuling was a secretary, junior supervisor and associate professor of bachelor's degree in Jixian College. The two of them and Wang Wei are friends who have forgotten each other for years.

Meng Haoran wrote this poem, and presented it to Zhang Jiuling after visiting the secretariat in Zhang Jiuling, in order to get Zhang Jiuling's recommendation, appreciation and appointment. Just to keep a little identity, I wrote it so euphemistically and tried my best to eliminate the traces of dryness.
