Youzhou tower
Author: Chen Ziang? Dynasty: Tang Dynasty
No one can see the ancient wisdom of the ancient king, only those wise men who can't see the afterlife can see it.
I think of heaven and earth, there is no limit, there is no end, I am alone, tears fell down.
Translation:
You can't see the ancient sages moving forward, and you can't see the wise masters today.
I feel sad at the thought of boundless heaven and earth, and cry alone.

Literary appreciation:
"Before me, where was the past era? Behind me, where are the future generations? "The ancients here refer to wise monarchs who were kind to virtuous corporal in ancient times. Poets can't see the ancient sages, and the ancients didn't have time to see poets; The poet can't see the future Yingjie, and the future Yingjie can't see the poet. What poets can see, what they can see, is only the present era.
This poem expresses the poet's frustrated situation and lonely and depressed mood in a generous and sad style. This kind of sadness is often shared by many talented people in the old society, so it is widely read.
This poem does not describe Youzhoutai in a word, but only expresses the feeling of coming to power, but it has become a masterpiece through the ages. The style of this poem is beautiful and vigorous, and it is the pioneering work of Tang poetry in the style of Han and Wei Dynasties. It has the power to expand the territory and open the way for clearing the flashy and delicate formalistic poetry style of Qi and Liang Dynasties.
In terms of diction, this poem is deeply influenced by Songs of the South, especially Journey. "Travel" has a cloud: "Only the infinity of heaven and earth is sad for the long diligence of life. I can't smell the past. " The sentences of this poem have changed since then, but the artistic conception is more boundless and vigorous.
