This poem was written at the beginning of Dali when Du Fu lived in Kuizhou. This is a song of lonely geese thinking about the crowd. Wonderful body music and the author's thoughts and feelings appear at the same time, which is a masterpiece. This poem describes the image of lonely, bitter, passionate and persistent geese flying alone and missing their companions. Through the lonely goose, the poem expresses the poet's yearning for relatives and friends who were displaced in the war, his desolate feelings about wandering life, and his lofty pursuit and persistent spirit of not falling into the blue sky.
Lonely goose
Du Fu
A lone goose doesn't want to drink water, refuses to eat, just flies low and longs for its companion.
The geese disappear in the sea of clouds, who will pity the geese in the sky?
Looking at the horizon, I seem to see the figure of my companion; The voice in the valley seems to hear the voice of the companion.
Wild birds don't understand the lonely goose's heart, but make noise for their own voice.
