(Qing) Qianhetan
Tomorrow after tomorrow, there are so many tomorrows.
Tomorrow will never come.
If the world is tired tomorrow, it will go to Qiu Lai as a veteran in spring.
Watch the water flow eastward and the sunset at dusk.
What will tomorrow be like in a hundred years?
Please listen to my song tomorrow.
Song of Tomorrow has been widely praised by the world for hundreds of years. In his works, the poet warns and exhorts people to firmly grasp the fleeting today, do well what they can do today, and don't pin any plans and hopes on the unknown tomorrow. Today is the most precious. Only by grasping today, can we have a full tomorrow, do something and achieve something. Otherwise, "the day after tomorrow" will only end up as "all in vain" and accomplish nothing. So, whatever you do, remember that everything starts today and everything starts now.
This poem mentions "tomorrow" seven times, repeatedly warning people to cherish time, do today's work well, don't put it off until tomorrow, and don't waste time. Poetry has simple meaning, clear language, easy-to-understand reasoning and great educational significance.
The enlightenment of this song of tomorrow is that many things in the world can be fought for and saved as much as possible, and only time is hard to retain. There is only one life, and time never looks back. Don't put off till tomorrow what you can do today and the day after tomorrow. "Never put off till tomorrow what you can do today."
