The poet endowed this "bird" with the image of an angry patriot. It is full of heavy suffering and depression, which makes people sigh. So the word hoarseness is used to describe it.
In the poem "I Love This Land", the poet turned himself into a affectionate "bird" by symbolic means, implicitly and profoundly expressing his deep affection for the motherland and his love for his compatriots. The bird in the poem does not have the beautiful faces of parrots and egrets, nor the crisp songs of orioles and partridges, but it has a deep patriotic heart and strong feelings of loving the people.
As long as it lives, it will sing tirelessly for the land, rivers, wind and dawn with a hoarse throat; Even its feathers will rot in the ground after death. This touching image dwarfs the crying cuckoo.
At the same time, "bird" is a manifestation of freedom. After all, it landed and even its feathers rotted in the land, which shows the author's love for the land.

Ai Qing has formed an image community with personal characteristics and stable themes in her long-term creation. "Land-farmer, sunshine" is the core image series that appears repeatedly in his works, which often leads the emotion of poetry to the level of overall symbol.
They embody the basic themes of poetry: deep concern for the fate of rural areas and farmers in China, unremitting pursuit of light and warmth and all good things, and deep and burning patriotic feelings combine them.
Ai Qing declared that he was "the son of the wilderness forever" and "the son of Dayanhe". His poems, composed of the image of "land-farmer", repeatedly show the "wasteland" of sadness, hardship and poverty, describe the "son of the earth" who has suffered from the mother of the earth for thousands of years, describe the beggar's "never-retracting hand" to anyone, and show "the pain and disaster in China/as vast and long as this snowy night!"
From personal misfortune to the disaster of war, the poet wrote the tragic scene that the land was blocked by the cold and the farmers were in a desperate situation. From the suffering of history to the change of reality, the poet wrote in his poems such as "The Land of Resurrection" and "Spring Rain" that fate has finally changed. ?
Those poems with "the light of the sun" as the central image reflect the poet's persistent pursuit of ideals and hopes and all beautiful realms. Poets regard poetry, beauty and goodness as a trinity, which promotes the upward development of mankind. He wrote the sun rolling towards me with pure feelings, I galloped towards the sun with indulgence, lit up the night with passionate Torch, and issued the Dawn Notice with more affection.
Poets think about history and appreciate life in the grand thinking structure of land and sun, and deep melancholy becomes the "poetic soul" that runs through almost all his works. Ai Qing believes that great poets are the spokesmen of the times, and the highest works of art are the true records of life. Calling for a loyal soul living in this era is not melancholy, but only "a kind of pure hope."
Empathy for the suffering land, ups and downs in the pursuit of ideals, and deep grief and indignation at people's fate refine, expand and deepen the texture and connotation of melancholy poetry. Melancholy rather than depression and pessimism, depression and depression make Ai Qing's poems sincere and touching, with a distant and vast artistic conception and broad tolerance. I Love This Land is the best song of "Melancholy Complex".
