The first six sentences of this poem say: Today's banquet is really wonderful! This kind of happiness is simply disturbing. Let's play the guzheng. How elegant the sound is! That's the most fashionable music, great! Virtuous people express their opinions through music, and if they understand music, they can hear its true meaning. Here, the poet first talked about the beauty of the banquet and its music. Introduce people who know music through banquet music.
Then the lyric hero said: the real meaning is actually the common aspiration of ordinary people at present, but no one will make it clear. Everyone can understand, but it doesn't mean you can't say it, but you don't want to say it. This not only highlights the "wonderful new sound", but also "knows the fun and listens to the truth", laying a solid foundation for expressing your understanding and thinking about life in the future.
Behind it is a reflection on life: life is like a traveler staying in a hotel. Like dust, it was suddenly blown away by the strong wind. What the poet is saying here is that life is short, but wandering in the years, wasting time, the value of life has not been well reflected.
Since "life is at stake, the election is suddenly settled", then "why not aim high and take a good road first?" Why not take the lead first? In this way, you can enjoy wealth without wasting your life, which embodies the value of life.
Finally, the hero said: don't be sad and depressed because of poverty, and don't torture yourself because of depression. Speak your mind, don't keep it to yourself. "Don't be poor" is to persuade scholars not to cling to poverty. It can be said that the poet is exhorting scholars, which corresponds to the rhetorical tone of "why not aim high" and better emphasizes the urgent mood of "aim high and walk on the road". In other words, you should do something, say something and do something in life. People have the ability to "make virtue sing high words, know songs and listen to their reasons", so they must show it.
When the hero said this, he was in high spirits, full of joy and outspoken. There are many compliments and compliments in the middle. Talking about "banquet" and using "kindness" and "happiness" is "difficult to get old". When we say "playing the zither", we should use "Yi", "Xin Sheng", "Fan", "Virtue" and "Gao Hua". When it comes to seizing a high and important position, it also uses a beautiful metaphor: driving the whip and charging the front. Through the beauty of music, the whole poem tells readers, or people with lofty ideals, to be brave in speaking out, to be brave in struggle, to "go one step ahead", not to die for face, but to suffer. In this way, it is meaningful and valuable to life. This shows that this poem is really graceful and profound. It contains philosophy and involves a series of life and social problems, which is thought-provoking.
