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.
Life is once in a blue moon, only parting.
Outside the pavilion, beside the ancient road, the grass is blue.
When will you return this? Don't hesitate to come.
The horizon, the horizon, intimate friends are half scattered.
A pot of turbid water has spilled all the joy, so let's bid farewell to Meng Han tonight.
The poem "Farewell" condensed all the images of the ancient people's farewell with a short lyric. With a "comprehensive" impact, it strongly shocked the "collective unconsciousness" of China people and became a cultural and psychological symbol of China people's farewell to their friends.
In ancient times, farewell poems were usually written to say goodbye to a friend, but they were true. But what is intriguing is that, according to the information currently available, it is not clear to which friend Li Shutong wrote his "farewell". In my opinion, Farewell is not written for any friends, but a symbolic farewell poem pointed out by Kubinashi.
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 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. The above is for reference.
