You asked me when I would go home, but I haven't decided yet. At the moment, the only thing I can tell you is that evening rain is falling, and autumn permeates Hechi. I don't know when I can go home and reunite with you. The two of us sat at home under the west window, cutting candles and talking. Then I will live in Bashan tonight, listening to the cold leaves and the autumn rain, and I will come back to tell you how much I miss you.

But I feel the harmonious heartbeat of the sacred unicorn? Is from his untitled. Last night's stars and last night's wind, this poem is used by poets to recall the erotic scenes they saw at that time.
Judging from the above, what is the first sentence? Last night? Pointing out is to recall the past, and the third and fourth sentences are to compare with other things. No Cai Feng? It's about feelings at that time. And five or six sentences changed from the tacit understanding of the two people to the description of the whole party, while seven or eight sentences were written from the pleasure of love? Listen to the drums and answer the questions? Let happiness disappear. The whole poem begins with the poet's psychological activities. His feelings are true and meticulous, and he describes a meaningful but unspeakable emotion in a complicated and nuanced way, which makes people feel a solution in a sad tone and atmosphere, such as writing to a lover who is in love but can't accompany him, and writing to a difficult relationship between monarch and minister. It seems so, but it is not so secular, which is the beauty of Li's poem.
Judging from the general idea of the poem, the whole poem is written about the bright stars last night, accompanied by a slight cool breeze at night. Our banquet is located in the west of the painting building and the east of Guitang. We lack the wings of Cai Feng flying together physically, but we can feel each other's feelings in our hearts like a magical rhinoceros. * * * frolicking and guessing boxing, drinking warm wine across the seat, and grouping wine lists, the result is that the candle is red. Unfortunately, the fifth watch has been played, and it is necessary to go to the early court. I can only drive my horse to the secretary province, just like Artemisia capillaris floating in the wind.
