Birds fly without a trace, and lonely clouds floating in the sky don't want to stay and drift away slowly. Only when I look at the high Jingting Mountain and Jingting Mountain looks at me silently, neither of us will feel bored. Who can understand my lonely mood at this time, only this tall Jingting Mountain.
Background:
This five-element work was written in Xuanzhou in the twelfth year of Tianbao (753), and it has been ten years since Tianbao was forced to leave Chang 'an in the third year. The long-term wandering life made Li Bai taste the bitterness of the world and see through the coldness of the world, thus deepening his dissatisfaction with reality and increasing his sense of loneliness. The interest of this poem when sitting alone in Jingting Mountain is a portrayal of the poet's life with lonely feelings and seeking comfort in the embrace of nature.
