A whole ancient poem describing the desert

Riding a bike to visit the border and passing through Juyan County.

Pengpeng also floated out of Korea, and the geese heading north also flew into the sky.

The vast desert is lonely, and the Yellow River sets the yen.

When I arrived at the small pass, I met a spy waiting for the knight and told me that Dou Hu was in Yan.

From: To the plug.

Author: Wang Wei

Dynasty: Tang Dynasty

Translation:

I will visit the border without pomp, and all the countries I pass by have passed by.

Like a grass drifting with the wind, wild geese belonging to the north are flying in the sky.

Solitary smoke goes straight to the vast desert, and the sunset is round by the Yellow River.

When I arrived at Xiaoguan, I met a reconnaissance knight who told me that Doohu had arrived in Yanran.

Extended data:

This poem is included in The Complete Poems of Tang Dynasty, Volume 126. The following is an appreciation of this poem by Mr. Zhang Yanjin, an expert in ancient Chinese literature, a member of the Chinese Writers Association and a former doctoral supervisor of the Chinese Department of Capital Normal University.

The Ambassador to the Great Wall depicts the strange and magnificent scenery beyond the Great Wall, and shows the poet's praise for the patriotic spirit of the frontier guards who are brave in danger and lead the motherland. This poem is concise in narration and magnificent in picture.

"Bike wants to ask the side", there is no bus to go there, where to go-"belonging to the country, living in Yan", living in the northwest of Zhangye County, Gansu Province, far from the northwest frontier.

The poet compared Peng and Yan to "going out to Han like grass, flying into the lake like a wild goose flying north". In ancient poetry, flying over the eaves and walking over the wall is often used as a metaphor for a wandering wanderer, but here it is a metaphor for a minister with a court mission, who is secretly writing the poet's inner anger and depression. It echoes the "bicycle" in the first sentence. The trip to Wan Li took only ten words.
