JohnWhen will the bright moon shine on me? The previous sentence is "the spring breeze is green on the South Bank of the river". It comes from "berthing Guazhou" by poet Wang Anshi of Song Dynasty.
At the beginning of the poem, it not only has Bixing, but also forms a strong contrast between the proximity of space and the length of time through exaggeration, which is close to the emotional burst of "when the bright moon shines on me" at the end, which has the potential of breaking the silver bottle. The whole poem is not only lyrical and emotional through the scenery, but also full of emotion in narration, open realm and fresh style.
Original text of ancient poetry:
Berthing Guazhou
There are only a few mountains between Guazhou in Jingkou and Zhongshan.
The spring breeze is green on the South Bank of the river. When will the moon shine on me.
Translation:
Standing at Guazhou ferry, looking to the south, there is only a Yangtze River between Jingkou and Guazhou. Zhongshan, where I live, is hidden behind several mountains.
The warm spring breeze once again greened the fields in the south of the Yangtze River. When can the bright moon shine on me and return to my home at the foot of Zhongshan?
