Tang Bai Juyi
From the north side of Gushan Temple to the west side of Jiating, the lake is just level with the embankment, with low clouds and waves on the lake.
Several early orioles raced to the sunny tree, and their new swallows were carrying mud in their nests.
Colorful spring flowers will gradually fascinate people's eyes, and shallow spring grass can barely cover the horseshoe.
I love the beauty on the east bank of the West Lake, and I can't get enough of it, especially the white sand embankment under the green poplar.
Autumn in Taihu Lake (Wang Changling)
Water stays misty and rainy, and the frost in Dongting falls slightly.
The moon is gone, and the night is quiet.
I feel the style of the sea in the dark, and I smell the swallow in the rustling.
Wangdongting
Tang-Liu Yuxi
The lake and the moon blend together,
There is no wind on the pool surface, and the mirror is not polished.
Looking at Dongting,
Green snail in a silver plate.

Strolling by the west lake. Gushan Temple extends from the north to the west of Jiagongting. At high tide, the lake is just flush with the levee, and the white clouds overlap with the waves on the lake. A few early orioles scrambled to fly to the sunny tree. I don't know whose new swallow is nesting with spring mud in its mouth. Some colorful spring flowers (wild flowers) gradually fascinated people's eyes, and the shallow spring grass just covered the horseshoe. I like walking in the east of the West Lake and enjoying the beautiful scenery. If I don't appreciate it enough, I will go to see the charming broken bridge in Green Liu Xia.

A Spring Tour in Qiantang vividly depicts the beautiful scenery the poet saw when he strolled the West Lake in early spring. This is a hymn to the beautiful spring and the beautiful scenery of the West Lake. The first poem is always about the lake, and the first sentence points out the location of Qiantang Lake and the "uneven view of the building" around it. These two place names are used together. It also gives readers a sense of movement, indicating that the poet is walking and watching. On the front of the latter sentence, the lake is as bright as water: at the beginning of spring, the water surface is flush with the embankment, and the white clouds in the air are connected with the rippling waves on the lake, which is a typical water state of Jiangnan Spring Lake. Zhuan Xu writes about birds and warblers sing and dance, which shows the vitality of spring. Both the oriole and the swallow are messengers of spring, and the oriole sends the good news of spring back to the earth with its euphemistic and smooth voice. Swallows wear flowers and paste water, build nests with mud, inspire people to start working in spring, and write the vitality of early spring. The word "several places" summarizes Ying Ge's call to the other and the poet's modality of seeking sound from left to right. The doubt about the word "whose family" shows the poet's delicate psychological activities and makes readers have rich associations. Writing with a neckband overlooks the flowers and plants you see. Because it's early spring, it's not the season of flowers, so what we can see is not colorful flowers. But a cluster in the east and a cluster in the west, which is described by a word "chaos". Spring grass does not grow luxuriantly, only it is not as long as horseshoe, so it is described by a word "shallow". The "gradual desire" and "talent" in this association are also the feelings and judgments of the poet's observation and appreciation, which makes the objective natural scenery become the scenery in the eyes with the poet's subjective feelings and infect readers. These two couplets describe the scenery of the West Lake in detail, and express Yingying Yan's new arrival with "early", "new", "struggle" and "pecking". Using "chaos", "shallowness", "gradual desire" and "talent" to describe the thriving trend of flowers and plants accurately and vividly reveals the early spring weather that the poet felt while walking, giving people a fresh feeling. The previous generation poet Xie Lingyun's phrase "Spring grass grows in the pond, and willow in the garden turns into songbirds" ("Pond Upstairs") is wonderful in ancient and modern times, precisely because he wrote the joy of love at first sight when the four seasons change. The above two couplets of Qiantang Spring Tour are quite similar in artistic conception, but the white poems are more widely spread. William wrote about the poet's favorite sandbar in the east of the lake. Qiantang Lake, which runs through Bai Causeway, is located in the east of the lake and can win the whole lake. I saw that under the shade of Populus cathayana, the flat and slender white sand embankment was lying in the blue waves, and the people riding on the embankment were knitting and enjoying the beauty of spring. In the meantime, the poet enjoyed the lakes and mountains and was relaxed and happy. "Lack of line" shows that the natural scenery is beautiful, the poet is still lingering, and the concentrated and full feelings give readers endless aftertaste.
Autumn in Taihu Lake (Wang Changling)
Water stays misty and rainy, and the frost in Dongting falls slightly.
The moon is gone, and the night is quiet.
I feel the style of the sea in the dark, and I smell the swallow in the rustling.
Wang Changling (698-757), born in Jinyang, Hedong (now Taiyuan, Shanxi), was named Shao Bo, alias Chang 'an, Jing Zhao (now xi 'an). A famous frontier poet in the prosperous Tang Dynasty, later generations praised him as the "Seven Wonders".
Wang Changling was born in a poor family in his early years, and lived mainly by farming. At the age of 30, he became a scholar. First, he served as the secretary of the provincial school book lang, then as a learned and ambitious official, and was demoted to Lingnan for his merits. Wang Changling had deep contacts with Li Bai, Gao Shi, Wang Wei, Wang Zhihuan and Cen Can. At the end of Kaiyuan, he returned to Chang 'an and awarded Jiangning Cheng. The slandered dragon captain. An Shi rebelled and was killed by Lu Qiuxiao, the secretariat. His poems are famous for their four wonders, especially the frontier poems written in northwest frontier fortress before he ascended the first place, which is known as "the poet king Jiangning". Wang Changling's poems are dense and clear, just like Gao Shi and Wang Zhihuan, who are called Wang Jiangning. There are six volumes of anthology, and four volumes of poetry are compiled today. Representative works include Seven Songs of Joining the Army, Out of the Shanzhai, Always in My Heart, etc.

Stay on the boat in Taihu Lake. In the moonlight, the boat moved slowly on the water.
The night is so quiet, the lake is so cold, and a layer of frost falls on Dongting Mountain.
Like sleeping but not sleeping, like dream a dream, I vaguely feel the sea breeze blowing and hear the sound of geese flying south in the distance.
Brief analysis
Wang Changling recited Suzhou's poems, only one. One night in late autumn, the poet stayed on a boat in Taihu Lake. In the moonlight, the boat moved slowly on the water. The night is so quiet, the lake is so cold, and a layer of frost falls on Dongting Mountain. The poet seems to sleep but not sleep, like dream a dream. He vaguely felt the sea breeze blowing and heard the sound of geese flying south in the distance. The poet painted a quiet autumn night picture of Taihu Lake for us.
[Modern Translation]
The water and light in Dongting Lake are in harmony with the autumn moon.
The water is as calm as a bronze mirror.
Seen from a distance, the Dongting Lake landscape is green.
Like a silver plate with green snails.
[Appreciation]
This is a landscape poem written by the poet overlooking Dongting Lake, which is clear and meaningful. The first sentence is about the blending of water, light and moonlight, which shows the breadth and distance of the lake. This should be the scene at dusk. It is not dark yet, but the moon has come out. If it is dark, you can't see the fusion of the two colors. The second sentence uses the metaphor of a mirror to show the calm of the lake at night, because the sun has set and the lake is not reflective, just like a mirror is dull without polishing. The third sentence is about the green of Junshan Mountain in Wangyuan Lake. The "landscape" here actually refers to the mountain, that is, Junshan in the lake. The usage of "scenery" belongs to the usage of "compound words with partial meanings" in ancient Chinese. The fourth sentence uses another metaphor, comparing Junshan floating in the water to a green snail on a silver plate. The whole poem is full of pure scenery, with detailed descriptions and vivid metaphors, which is very interesting to read.
