Original poem:
Leaves fall to the south and the north wind is bleak.
My home is wandering by the river, and the sea of clouds is far away.
Tears of homesickness in the journey, see the back of the sail on the horizon.
The smoke in the wind blurs where the ferry can be, and the vast river ripples in the sunset.
Translation:
The deciduous geese fly south, and the bleak north wind makes the river extremely cold.
My home is near the winding water, far away from the vast sea of clouds in Chutian.
Tears of homesickness run out during the journey, watching the returning sail wander in the horizon.
The wind and smoke blurred where the ferry could be, and the vast river rippled in the sunset.
Appreciate:
This poem begins with prosperity, and the geese fly south to make the guests homesick; In the middle, I saw the lonely sail from a distance and thought of my disappointment that I could not accompany it; Finally, write about the stagnation you want to return to.
This poem begins with autumn scenery in Xiao Suo, and describes his infinite longing for his hometown when he lives in a foreign land, and his confused mood when he faces the choice of seclusion and politics. The poet looks at his hometown in a foreign land and misses Xiangyang and Xiangshui deeply, but his hometown is out of reach, so he can only shed tears of homesickness and look at the lonely sails in the sky. This sense of drift can only be deeply felt by people on the road. This poem expresses the resentment and melancholy of the author Chang 'an after hitting a wall. His homesickness and the sentence of writing scenery are integrated, deep and implicit. The whole poem is full of scenes and scenes, with light words and far-reaching implications. And the heartfelt nostalgia for the Han River has aroused the echo from beginning to end.
I hope it helps you.
