Li Bai's Drinking the Moon Alone describes the poet's loneliness.

First of all, until, holding up my cup, I asked the bright moon to bring me my shadow and make the three of us.

Meaning: raise a glass to the sky, invite the bright moon, shadow me, and it will be three people.

It shows that Li Bai's mood is too melancholy and depressed. One person is lonely, two people are cold and cheerless. After being drunk, his eyes become more like a movie, but he becomes three people. So drinking alone is a party for three people. But as we all know, when experts write poems, they will open their mouths when they are inspired. In ancient poetry, this technique is nothing more than to highlight the loneliness of the protagonist.

Second, a pot of wine from the flowers, drink alone. No one is with me.

It means: put a pot of wine among the flowers and drink it by yourself. There are no relatives or friends.

Said by: I drink the bright moon alone.

Extended data:

Drinking the bright moon alone is my full text:

Flowers in the next pot of wine, no friends, drink alone.

Raise my cup, I invite the bright moon, which brings me its shadow and makes us three people.

The moon doesn't know how to drink, but the shadow in front of it is behind.

I have to mingle with them and enjoy the happiness of spring.

The song I sing is bright and wandering, and I dance the shadow before wandering.

When you are awake, you are happy together, and when you are drunk, you go your separate ways.

I am willing to stay with them forever and forget the harm of friendship, just like the Milky Way.

Translation:

Put a pot of wine among the flowers, and no relatives and friends will pour it themselves.

Till, raising my cup, I asked the bright moon into three people before the picture.

Of course, Yue Ming won't drink. Her figure follows me.

I had to form a wine companion with them for the time being. If I want to enjoy myself, I must seize the beautiful spring scenery.

I sang about the moon, and my dancing figure was messy.

When you wake up, you will be happy together, and when you are drunk, you will be separated.

I would like to form an eternal friendship with them, forget the harm and meet at the edge of the misty galaxy.

Creation background: This poem was written in Tianbao period of Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty (744). Li Bai was in Chang 'an, when the officialdom was frustrated. Under the title of this poem, the two Song editions and Miao editions are marked with the word "Chang 'an", which shows that these four poems were written in Chang 'an. At that time, Li Bai's political ideal could not be realized, and he was lonely and depressed. But in the face of the dark reality, he did not sink or drift, but pursued freedom and yearned for the light, which is why.
