"Mountains Are Beautiful" is titled "Hanjiang Linfan", and the whole poem is as follows:
Chu and three Hunan are connected, and Jingmen is connected to nine schools.
The river flows beyond the sky and the earth, and the mountains are beautiful.
In the county town of Bucheonpo, waves ripple across the sky.
It’s a nice windy day in Xiangyang, but I’m left drunk with the mountain man.
Translation:
The Han River flows through Chusai and then turns into Sanxiang, starting from Jingmen in the west and connecting with Jiujiang in the east. From a distance, the river seems to flow beyond the sky and the earth, while from a close look, the mountains are misty and misty. The city on the shore seems to be floating on the water, and the water and the sky are joined by rolling waves and clouds in the sky. The scenery of Xiangyang is indeed intoxicating. I would like to drink and accompany the mountain man here.

As soon as the first couplet was written, the background of the "Hanjiang River Flooding" picture was outlined. It was majestic and swallowed up the universe.

Looking at the whole poem, I write about the scenery of the mountains from a broad perspective, without mentioning the shades of blue and purple, only talking about the presence and absence of them, sometimes hidden and sometimes revealed, to describe the characteristics of the southern country, which is rich in water, moist air, and soft light. , expressed vividly. There are no strange people who say, "In You Cheng's poem, both the middle couplets are about scenery, but the first couplet is particularly strong, rivaling Meng and Du's "Yue Yang"."
