3. Three Poems of it is hard to go by Li Bai, a poet in the Tang Dynasty (I).
Original text:
The cost of pure wine is a gold cup, 10 thousand copper coins and a hip flask, and I am ashamed of 10 thousand yuan. I threw the food bar and cup aside. I couldn't eat or drink. I pulled out my dagger. I peeped in four directions in vain.
I want to cross the Yellow River, but ice will block the ferry and Taihang Mountain will be covered with snow. I will sit on a fishing rod and lean lazily by the stream, but I suddenly dream of sailing a boat towards the sun.
A hard journey is a hard journey and a hard road. Where is Ann now? One day, I will ride the wind and waves, raise the Yun Fan and cross the sea.
Translation:
The wine in the golden cup 1000 yuan a barrel, and the food in the jade plate 10000 yuan. But my anxiety made me put down a glass of chopsticks and refused to eat. Pulled out his sword and looked around, feeling at a loss.
To cross the Yellow River, frozen rivers. If you want to climb Taihang Mountain, the mountains are covered with snow. At that time, when he was fishing in Panxi, he met the talented King Wen. Yi Yin is employed by Shang Tang.
How difficult is the road to life, how difficult it is, and where is the real avenue? I firmly believe that the time will come, when I will sail and cross the blue sea and blue sky.

What's wrong with this festival? But somehow, in the face of autumn scenery, I can't help but feel dejected. The west wind is hunting, and the wine flags in the city are fluttering in the wind; It's raining in Mao Mao, and golden chrysanthemums are everywhere.
Thinking about state affairs and family affairs makes my temples gray; I feel ashamed to spend the salary of the imperial court in vain. When can I satisfy my wish? I want to go back to Yingdong, lead the deer cart, plow the fields and plant mulberry.
