The whole poem (excerpt) is as follows:
When Princess Ming first left the Han Palace, her eyes were moist. There's nothing Wang can do about it.
When you come back, you will complain about Dan Qing's hand. I've seen it in my life. I couldn't understand the meaning, so I killed Mao Yanshou for nothing.
The translation is as follows:
When Princess Ming first left the Han Palace, her temples hung slightly and her face was covered with tears. Looking back, there is no such color around the drawing room, which makes my king's mood difficult to control.
Come back after parting, blame painter Dan Qing. I have never seen such a beautiful scenery in my life. It is difficult to describe the immortal's will with an autogenous brush, and the painter Mao Yanshou was unjustly killed at that time.
Extended data:
This group of poems was written in the fourth year of Jiayou (1059), after Wang Anshi played Renzong Yanshu. At that time, Mei, Ouyang Xiu, Sima Guanghe all wrote peace poems.
In the Northern Song Dynasty, Liao and Xixia "invaded each other, with an annual currency of one million" (Zhao Yi's Notes on Twenty-two Histories). Since the reign of King Youwang (1034-1038), "Western (summer) affairs are particularly difficult". At that time, Shi Yisheng, Bird and others defected to Liao and Xia due to the frustration of Song Dynasty, and made suggestions for Liao and Xia, which caused the border chaos in Song Dynasty. Poets borrow Song Ci and Ming Fei's thoughts.
Wang Anshi's Two Songs of Fei Ming was written under this social background.
