This poem expresses the poet's thoughts and feelings about himself, the current situation and the decline of the country by visiting the ancient plain at sunset. Poetry is written in a straightforward way. At the beginning, I explained the reason for going to Guyuan: "I am not feeling well." I want to relax here and relieve my boredom. At this time, I suddenly found the beautiful scenery at sunset. I couldn't help but be intoxicated and sigh: "Seeing the sun, despite his glory." Then he sighed deeply: "Buried by the coming night." It's a pity that beautiful scenery doesn't come often, and good scenery is rare.
"The sunset is infinitely beautiful and buried by the coming night" is the most popular famous sentence, which contains rich poetry and philosophy. On the one hand, he lamented the passage of time and youth, as well as the decline of politics and the weakness of the country in the late Tang Dynasty. On the other hand, he praised the beauty of the sunset and expressed his love for nature and life. The two function words "just" are well used, telling people that "near dusk" is only a necessity in life and not terrible. The key is to find beauty in nature, appreciate beauty and attach beauty. This feeling of cherishing time, loving life and understanding life can arouse people's emotions, which is why people have often recited and pondered these two poems for thousands of years.
