Appreciation of Deng Taibailou's Translation

Climbing Taibai Building [Ming] Wang Shizhen heard Li Xian and climbed the building alone. If you look down on this place, it will be famous for a hundred generations. White clouds, sea color, bright moon, Tianmen, autumn. Those who want to find a new life will help the water flow.

I heard that Li Bai once boarded this balcony alone to recite poems. As soon as he came here, this place and his name were handed down from generation to generation. White clouds are long, the sea is sparkling, the moon is in the sky and the autumn colors are pleasant. The gurgling water is flowing. I have seen past lives all over, but I can't find the person who has been here again.

Note Taibai Building: In Jining, Shandong Province today. Tang is from Jining and Rencheng. Li Bai once lived in his hometown. He wrote poems such as "The Wall of Rencheng County" and "A Book for Rencheng Land". According to legend, Li Bai used to drink upstairs. In Tang Xiantong, Shen Guang wrote Li Bai Restaurant, which is famous all over the world. Later generations added to it, and celebrities of all previous dynasties lived here, and there were many poems. Li Xian: That's Li Bai. Xiao: The cuckold voice is long and clear. This refers to chanting. Look down: patronize and condescend. Shu: The color of dawn. Tianmen, star name. It belongs to Virgo. This means the sky. Chān yuán: The current is slow.
