" Flowers bloom in the south of the city and wish you peace. Flowers bloom in the south of the city and wait for you to return."" The fragrance of flowers overflows in March, and three cups of warm wine toast the south of the city." What did this poem mean?
This poem was from the Tang Dynasty poet Bai Juyi's "Fu De Gu Yuan Cao Farewell." The whole poem was as follows: The grass on the plain withers and thrives once a year. The wildfire never ends, and the spring breeze blows, it grows again. The far-off fragrance encroaches on the ancient road, the clear green connecting the deserted city. And send the king's grandson away, full of parting feelings. Flowers bloom in the south of the city, I wish you peace, flowers bloom in the south of the city, waiting for you to come back. The fragrance of flowers overflows in March, and I drink three cups of warm wine to the south of the city. This poem described Bai Juyi's nostalgia for his homeland and his blessings to his friends when he left. The first line," Flowers bloom in the south of the city, wishing you peace ", expressed the inner prayer and peace of the poet when he bid farewell to his friends in the south of the city. The second sentence," Flowers bloom in the south of the city, waiting for you to return." It depicted the beautiful scene of spring, which meant that the friend was about to return and the two would be reunited again. The last two lines," The fragrance of flowers overflows in March, and three cups of warm wine toast the south of the city ", used the fragrance of flowers and wine to bless his friend, and also expressed the poet's own thoughts and blessings for him. The entire poem was smooth, beautiful, and sincere. It was one of the best poems of the Tang Dynasty.
