Untitled-The Stars Last Night and the Wind Last Night
The stars were bright last night, but there was a cool breeze at midnight. Our banquet is on the side of Hualou Temple and the east of the county.
Without Cai Feng's wings, it is impossible to be Qi Fei in fly with me; The heart is like a soul, and the feelings are the same.
Guessing and intrigue, wine warms the heart; This group of people came to the bet of drinking friends, and a win-lose red in candlelight.
Alas, it's time to call the roll in the morning when you hear the drums of the fifth watch; Riding to Lantai is like the wind in the wind.
Translation:
The starry sky last night and the spring breeze last night are in the west of the painting building and the east of Guitang.
Although the body flies to a place without Cai Feng's wings, the heart is connected.
How warm it is to send spring wine every other seat, and the wax lamp in every other group is particularly red.
Alas, I was encouraged to go to the official office, and riding a horse to Lantai was like climbing over the eaves.

The first two sentences of the first song evoke memories of last night from the scene tonight. This is a beautiful spring night: the stars are shining, the breeze is blowing gently, and the air is filled with intoxicating warmth. Everything seems the same as last night. However, the scene of meeting relatives in the West of Huafang and the East of Guixiangtang last night has become a beautiful memory that is hard to trace. The poet didn't specifically describe last night's events, but with the help of the bright wind of the stars and the contrast between the painted buildings and Guitang, he set off a warm, charming and suggestive environmental atmosphere for readers to understand. The repetition of "last night", the self-correction in the sentence, and the sentence pattern in which the previous sentence and the next sentence are connected in one breath constitute a beautiful and plaintive style, which makes the lyrical atmosphere of recalling last night more intense. Three or four sentences describe the distance between today and the complex and subtle psychology caused by recalling the status quo last night. In short, although I don't have wings like Cai Feng's, I can fly over the fence and meet each other after a brief encounter, but my heart is like a magical rhinoceros horn, with its own communication lines. Cai Fengfei and I are often used as a symbol of happy love. Here, "although my body doesn't have bright wings like a phoenix" is used to imply the obstacles of love, which can be said to be an innovation of the common language. It is entirely original and ingenious of the poet to describe the harmonious induction of two lovers' hearts with "however, I feel the harmonious heartbeat of the sacred unicorn". In ancient times, rhinoceros horn was regarded as a supernatural thing, especially with a white line (actually horny) running through the center, which added a magical color. It is from this point that the poet developed his imagination and endowed it with the peculiar nature of loving mind, thus creating such a novel and appropriate metaphor. This association is more symbolic. In these two sentences, "physical absence" and "mental presence" reflect each other and form a contradictory unity with rich connotations. It is a deep pain that the two sides who love each other can't meet each other; But it is a great comfort that the body cannot be connected, and the heart is connected. What the poet wants to show is not the simple depression of love interval or the joy of spiritual fit, but the fit of interval, the joy in depression and the comfort in loneliness. Although the joy of this fit is hard to avoid bitterness, it is precious because it is blocked. So it is not a negative sigh, but a positive affirmation of good feelings. It is typical to express the mutual penetration and wonderful blending of contradictory feelings in such a profound and meticulous way, which truly shows the poet's power to express his spiritual feelings.
The first five or six sentences seem to describe the real situation experienced by the poet, but in fact they are the imagination of people's situation inspired by the barrier. Sending a hook and patting a reply are both games at the banquet (the former is to hand the hook to someone to guess, and the latter is to let the artifact guess under the towel bowl, and you will be fined if you lose). In the poet's imagination, the other party must be attending a lively banquet in Guitang of Hualou at the moment. On top of the banquet, there were feasts, flowers, laughter, hooks and shots. What a warm atmosphere! The more isolated you are, the more anxious you are to meet each other, and the more vivid you imagine the situation of the separated Mr. Right. "Warm Spring Wine" and "Wax Lamp Red" not only vividly show the intoxicating atmosphere at the banquet, but also pour into the poet's strong yearning and admiration, as well as the feeling of "having no wings of Cai Feng". The sadness and loneliness of the poet's situation at this moment are self-evident. This naturally leads to the exclamation of the last couplet. "So the stars weren't last night, and the wind stood in the middle of the night for whom?" In the yearning for the night, unconsciously, the morning drum has rung and it's time to go to work. It's a pity that I am like a wandering grass, and I have to go to Lantai (when the poet worked in the secretary province) to start a lonely and boring school life. This ending, which combines the frustration of love interval with the floating energy of life experience, not only expands the connotation of the poem, but also deepens the meaning of the poem, making this untitled poem with "fu fa" contain some self-harming life experiences like some of his untitled poems with metaphors and meanings.
