Qianxia is pale and pale, and the dew is like frost. The saying that the beauty is by the water comes from which poem in the Book of Songs?

"The reeds are green and the white dew is like frost. The so-called beauty is on the side of the water" comes from "Guo Feng Qin Feng" in the "Book of Songs", which means that the reeds are very lush and the dew is as crystal clear as frost. That Girls seem to be in the middle of the water.

Original text:

Jianjia is green and white dew is frost. The so-called beauty is on the water side. If you follow it back, the road will be long and blocked. Traveling back from it, Wan is in the middle of the water.

Jianjia is miserable, and the white dew is still there. The so-called beauty is on the water. If you follow it back, the road will be blocked and you will be able to advance. If you travel back from it, you will feel like you are swimming in the water.

The jianjia is collected, and the white dew has not stopped. The so-called beauty is in the river of water. Follow it back, but the road is blocked and to the right. If you go back and swim from it, you will be swimming in the water.

This poem expresses the protagonist's persistent pursuit of beautiful love and the melancholy of being unable to pursue it. The most valuable and evocative thing about this poem is not the pursuit and loss of the lyrical protagonist, but the elusive artistic conception of "by the water" created by him.
