The verses of Yuntai Mountain are as follows:
I am a stranger in a foreign land. I miss my relatives even more during the festive season. I know that my brothers have climbed to the heights, and there is one less person planting dogwood trees everywhere.
Verse translation:
I am away from home alone as a guest in a foreign country. I miss my loved ones especially when the festival comes. I think back to today when my brothers climbed high and looked far into the distance, with dogwoods on their heads, it was a pity that I was the only one missing.

"Remembering Shandong Brothers on September 9th" is one of the famous poems by Wang Wei, a poet of the Tang Dynasty. This poem expresses the homesickness of a wanderer. The poem focuses closely on the title at the beginning, describing the loneliness and desolation of life in a foreign land. Therefore, I miss my hometown and people all the time, and when I encounter a good festival, I miss you even more. Then the poem jumps to write about the brothers far away in their hometown. When they climb high according to the custom of Double Ninth Festival, they are also missing themselves.
Wang Wei's calligraphy and painting are so exquisite that later generations regard him as the ancestor of Nanzong landscape painting. Together with Meng Haoran, he is known as "Wang Meng" and is known as the "Poetry Buddha". There are more than 400 poems in existence, and representative poems include "Lovesickness", "Dwelling in the Mountains in the Twilight of Autumn", etc. His works include "The Collection of Wang Youcheng" and "Secrets of Painting".
Keywords for the style of the work: painting shadows and shapes, which has the beauty of freehand brushwork and vivid expression, with both form and spirit. "There are paintings within poems, and poems within paintings." With his fresh, distant, natural and refined style, Wang Wei created an artistic conception of "painting in poetry, poetry in painting" and "Zen in poetry", setting up an unfailing banner in the poetry world.
