Author Wang Bo? the Tang Dynasty
Other places are early autumn, and Jiangting Yue Ming brings rivers.
I already feel that I have lost Sichuan, and I feel sorry for it. I saw Jin Shu hiding behind the boat.
Return to the boat and ride, facing each other in the south and north of the Yangtze River.
Who said that waves are just a piece of water, and mountains and rivers are two townships?
The translation is as follows:
Being a guest in a foreign country for a long time, I don't know when I will drift. At this time, it is early autumn and July. I bid farewell to my friends in the small pavilion by the river and watched the dim moonlight flowing with the sparkling river.
Facing the rolling river, I feel that time is passing. I thought I was sad for the frequent parting in my life, and now I see the boat you left parked in the shade of the ferry.
Ships coming and going home on the river seem to be lined up, cars and horses coming home on the river seem to be lined up, and missing people on both sides of the river look at each other in the distance.
At the moment of parting, who can say that this turbulent river is just a stream of water? Being cut off by rivers, I feel that the mountains and rivers on both sides of the strait belong to different people's hometowns.

Make an appreciative comment
These two poems (the first four sentences are the first and the last four sentences are the second) are interesting in using repeated words, showing a kind of circuitous beauty: the first word and the sixth word in the first two sentences are the same, and the first word and the third word in the last two sentences are the same. Wang Bo's opposition between land and water is one of his most common and lasting duality.
The first poem wrote the poet's inner sadness when he was at home, and showed the poet's feelings for friendship. The poet has always been sentimental about the river and its practical and symbolic significance to parting, but he finds it particularly unbearable that the trees on the land block his sight and make it difficult for him to see his friends who have left. The words "early" and "general" are used in the first sentence and the second sentence in an overlapping way, which has aesthetic feeling and compact rhythm. Compare the following two sentences, the rhythm changes, and the rhythm changes from tension to relaxation, which coincides with the sadness of parting and the melancholy after parting. The third and fourth sentence says that seeing the river that never returns adds to the sadness of parting, not to mention seeing a friend's boat disappear into the Woods at the ferry.
The second poem is also very affectionate. In the poem, the poet used a very common court metonymy method to skillfully demonstrate: "Who says A is true (in fact, A is true) because B (ingenious conception) contradicts A." Because of parting, the river is no longer a small area, but the dividing line between two different worlds. In the last two sentences, the poet further describes his deep love for friendship, and also makes people feel the sincerity of the poet's heart.
This is a set of seven-character quatrains, as well as farewell poems, landscape poems and water poems.
Creation background
Tang Gaozong was banned for three years (AD 668), and was expelled from Chang 'an for writing A Chicken Written by Ba Wang, and then went south to Shu. Judging from the two aspects of "Qiu Jiang" in the title of the group poem and "different places" in the second poem, this group of poems may have been written in the middle of Shu.
