The original text of "Looking at the Sea" is as follows:
On the east coast, climb Jieshi Mountain to see the vast sea.
The sea is so vast that the islands stand high on the sea.
Trees and paraquat are very lush. Autumn wind makes trees make sad sounds, and the sea is surging.
The movement of the sun and the moon seems to come from the vast ocean.
A trip to the sun and the moon, if unexpected;
Han is a talented star, if you take him by surprise.
I am glad to use this poem to express my inner desire.
Translation:
Go east, climb Jieshi Mountain and enjoy the boundless sea.
How vast the sea is, and the mountain island stands high on the seaside.
Trees and herbs flourish.
The autumn wind blows the trees and makes a sad sound, and the sea is rough.
The movement of the sun and the moon seems to emanate from this vast ocean.
The Milky Way galaxy is full of stars, as if they were born from this vast ocean.
I am very happy, so I use this poem to express my inner ambition.

Appreciate:
Looking at the sea accurately and vividly depicts the image of the ocean, simple and full, rich but not trivial, just like a heavy charcoal painting. This poem not only reflects the image of the ocean, but also endows it with character. Every sentence is a scene, and every sentence is lyric. It not only shows the sea, but also shows the poet himself, skillfully combining the scenery of the sea with his ambition.
