Wouldn't My Generation Be Artemesia's People from Li Bai's Farewell to the Children at Nanling to the Capital - Laughing up at the sky and going out the door, Wouldn't My Generation Be Artemesia's People.
1, the whole poem
White wine is newly ripened in the mountains, yellow chickens pecking millet in autumn is fat. I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to do that, but I'm going to be able to do it, and I'm going to be able to do it. I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to get a good deal out of this, but I'm sure I'm going to be able to get a good deal out of it. It was not too early for him to travel the world, so he took his whip and crossed his horse to travel a long way. I left my home and went west to Qin. I'm going out with a big smile on my face, I'm not an artesian.
2, Note
Just brewed white wine, I tasted it when I returned from the mountains, golden chickens are pecking at the plump grain. Calling on my servants to cook a stew of yellow chickens and pour the wine, the laughter of my children tugs at my coat. Under the clear sky, I sing and drink, trying to soothe myself with drunkenness, my drunken dancing figure competing with the setting sun.
The lobbying monarch has realized that time is rushing by, and he is fast and furious, running to a faraway land. The foolish woman of Huiji mocked the poor Zhu Baichen, and at this moment I also left my hometown and traveled westward to Chang'an and entered the land of Qin. Laughing up to the sky, I stride out, will I be a man who has lived in the wilderness for a long time?
