The creative background of Youzhou Tower: the political ambition has not been realized, but it has been hit. Seeing that his ambition to serve the country failed, he boarded the Jibei Tower and generously wrote an inscription on the Youzhou Tower.
Youzhou Tower: Where was the past before me? Behind me, where are the future generations? . Only the boundless universe, boundless, can't stop the tears full of sadness.
Translation: You can't see the ancient sages forward, and you can't see the present wise masters backward. I feel sad at the thought of boundless heaven and earth, and cry alone.
Appreciation of Poetry: This is a sad song of life, from which we can see the poet's lonely feelings of being alone in the world. This poem expresses the poet's long-suppressed grief and indignation and the infinite emotion caused by today's nostalgia for the past by describing going upstairs and overlooking. It profoundly reveals the depressed situation of intellectuals in feudal society and expresses their lonely and depressed mood when their ideals are shattered, which has profound typical social significance.
