The last two sentences are also the essence of the whole poem, and they are the confession of all patriotic intellectuals' sincere love for the motherland in that miserable era. This kind of love is not only the deep love of the poet, but also the concentration of patriotic feelings of the whole nation. Ai Qing used these two poems to express the voice of the Chinese people in that era.
If the first section is a lyrical description of the theme of "loving the land (motherland)", then the short and pithy two lines in the second section can be regarded as a highly concise summary of the theme.
Causal question and answer is a close-up of a patriot's grief and indignation when he witnessed the devastated motherland. In this section, poetry has been refined and sublimated. These two poems are full of the poet's deep attachment and endless love for the motherland.
The author of the extended material skillfully broke a stroke, separated a line, made the necessary intermission and pause, began to change skillfully, created a new poetic scene, and wrote the ending of two lines with outstanding images and further sublimation of feelings.

First, the lyric perspective has changed. The first paragraph of the poem is imagined from an imaginary angle, that is, from a bird's angle, showing the bird's loyalty and love for the land, which seems implicit;
In the second section, it was changed to a realistic perspective, that is, from the author's own perspective, he wrote his "tearful eyes" and poured out his "deep" love for the land, which is a direct expression. In this way, the combination and correspondence between the virtual and the real constitutes the internal and complete artistic space of the whole poem; The correlation and contrast between the result and the reason constitute the internal logical structure that supports the whole poem.
Second, the writing techniques have changed. The first section uses comparison, which is the realm of imagination; The second section uses fu, which is a realistic expression of the soul. The whole poem changes from the montage-like picture hint in front to the direct guidance of the author behind, and ends with strong emotional expression, thus attracting people's attention to a rich emotional atmosphere and feeling the author's loyalty and love for the land again.
