The long grass is so lush that the withered grass will thicken the color of the grass every autumn and winter. Wildfire can't burn it out, but the spring breeze can revive it.
Weeds and wild flowers are all over the ancient road, and the end of the grass in the sun is your journey. I once again sent my bosom friend, and the thick grass represented my deep affection.
2. Translation

"Wildfire never completely devoured them, and they grew taller in the spring breeze." This is the development of the word "withered glory", which changed from a concept to an image. The ancient grass is characterized by tenacious vitality. You can't cut or hoe. As long as a few roots are left, the next year will be greener and longer, and will soon spread to Yuanye.
Grasping this feature, the author does not say "endless chopping and hoeing", but writes "wildfire never consumes them completely", creating a heroic artistic conception. Wildfires start a prairie fire, and the flames are terrible. In an instant, a large area of hay was burned to the ground. Emphasizing the power of destruction and the pain of destruction means emphasizing the power of regeneration and the joy of regeneration.
Fire can "burn out" all weeds, even stems and leaves, but the author says it is "inexhaustible" and is of great significance. Because no matter how fierce the fire is, there is no way to help the roots buried deep underground. Once the spring breeze melts into rain, the life of weeds will revive and cover the earth again with rapid growth in response to the abuse of fire. Look at that "vast sea of grass", isn't it a green flag of victory?
The language of "they have grown taller in the spring breeze" is concise and powerful, and the word "rebirth" has three points and ten meanings. Song Dynasty and Notes on Remnant Gaizhai said that these two sentences were "not as concise as Liu Changqing's poem Burning Green in Spring", but they were not really seen.
