say goodbye to
Li Shutong
Outside the pavilion, beside the ancient road, the grass is blue.
The evening breeze blows the flute, and the sunset is beyond the mountain.
The horizon, the horizon, intimate friends are half scattered.
A pot of turbid wine will make you happy, so don't go to Meng Han tonight.
Outside the pavilion, beside the ancient road, the grass is blue.
When will you come here? Don't hesitate to come.
The horizon, the horizon, intimate friends are half scattered.
Life is once in a blue moon, only parting.
Full text of farewell poem Li Shutong
Full text explanation
Farewell is divided into three parts. The first section is "writing scenery", which is written outside the pavilion and beside the ancient road. The second paragraph is lyrical, expressing the sorrow of the soul; The third paragraph is a repetition of the first paragraph, but it is not. It is the repetition of words and the sublimation of meaning: I experienced "seeing my friends off" and realized that life is short, like the sunset, full of biting cold.
The Full Text Interpretation of Li Shutong's Farewell Poems
Full text appreciation
The whole lyrics are filled with a strong sense of emptiness in life and a deep hint of epiphany. "Farewell" is actually the reason for Li Shutong to bid farewell to his friends. It conveys his consciousness of understanding life and seeing through the world of mortals with a symbol with no clear meaning. Therefore, "Farewell" is not just a farewell eulogy among friends; But a "prelude" for Li Shutong to become a monk.
