The ancient banks are covered with green gardens, and the new canals carry blue currents. Will see all the ten thousand buildings. Remember that he helped the road and entered Xizhou in that year.

Translation

The lake mud under the green grass was excavated from the ancient shore, and grape-colored green wine flowed in the new canal. You will see: The light of the lake fills Wanjia Painting Building. Please remember: you can enter Hangzhou in western Zhejiang on the way. The Mid-Autumn Festival takes place after the plum rain, and the rest of my life depends on a small boat that can hold water chestnuts, chicken heads, and the thousands of hectares of West Lake at the bright moon at the same time.

Appreciation

The first film depicts the beautiful scenery on the shore of the West Lake: "The ancient shore is green, and the new canal is flowing with blue water. You will see thousands of buildings filled with light." That ancient On the shore of the West Lake, there is a cluster of green wildgrass roots; the newly opened canal is rolling away green water; I just happen to see the sparkling lake light, illuminating thousands of buildings. Then, the pen suddenly changed: "Remember that he helped the sick and came to Xizhou." He helped the sick and managed to do things even though he was sick. Facing the beautiful scenery of the West Lake, the poet reminded himself: "You should keep in mind that your political ambitions are still difficult to realize!" It was like a heavy fist hitting the chest, giving people a violent impact, showing that the poet's ambitions are difficult to achieve. Inner depression. The sudden change of words makes the pen and ink open instantly.

In the second film, the scenery is used to describe his own embarrassing and bumpy road. It echoes and develops the depressive sigh in the previous film: during the Dragon Boat Festival, we encountered continuous plum rain, which made people feel overwhelmed, as if they had placed their rest of their lives on a small boat and let it drift; however, there was another thing on the side of the boat. Encountered overgrown water chestnuts and wild rice roots, floating on the lake surface, blocking each other. "What's more, the moonlight shines thousands of hectares, and it stays for a while." The thousands of hectares of moonlight on the lake are bright and clear, making people nostalgic and hard to return.

This poem is sometimes sad and sometimes happy, with twists and turns and euphemisms. It finally reveals the author's contradictory and complex mood, which has the artistic feeling of "a village with dark flowers and bright flowers".
