White hair three thousands of feet,
Fate is like a long sorrow.
I don't know. In the mirror,
Where to get autumn frost.
explain
The white hair on my head grows to three thousands of feet! Just because I've been sad for too long.
Facing the bright mirror, my hair is as white as autumn frost. I really don't know where this kind of eyes come from!

1, Qiupu Song: In the 13th year of Tianbao (754), Li Bai wrote poems when he lived in Qiupu 17.
2. Qiupu: Now Puyi, located in the southwest of Guichi County, Anhui Province, produces silver and copper.
3, fate: because, it means because of sadness for too long.
4. One: Like this
5. Autumn frost: refers to white hair.
There are many sad examples in classical poetry. Luo Song Dajing's Record of He Lin Yu said: "Poets have a mountain to express their worries, Du Shaoling.
As the saying goes,' Worry comes like a mountain' (press: "Qi Zhong Nan"), the hole cannot be broken; There is a metaphor about sad water, Li Qiyun: "Please!
The water in the East China Sea looks shallow and deep. Li Bai's unique way of describing the depth of sadness with the length of "white hair and three thousands of feet" is particularly novel.
Strange ","there is a ratio between Xing and China, which means more "(ibid.). Not only will people not be offended by the irrationality of the "Three thousands of feet", but they will also look at each other.
On the contrary, I sincerely appreciate this unnatural and popular strange sentence and find the poet's exclamation really sympathetic.
