Said by: Tang Li Bai, Climbing Mount Tianmu in a Dream.
Excerpts from the original text:
This is the consistent way of human happiness, and all kinds of things will always flow to the east like water.
So I'm leaving you. I don't know how long it will take. But let me raise a white deer on my green hillside and ride to you when I need you, Dashan.
Oh, how can I bow and scrape to those people with high status and important positions? They never want to be seen with a sincere face!
Explanation:
The joy of the world is like a dreamland. Since ancient times, everything has gone forever.
Say goodbye to friends and fly away (Donglu). What time are you coming back? For the time being, put the white deer between the green cliffs, and when you want to travel far, ride it to visit famous mountains.
How can I grovel for the powerful, so that I can't have a comfortable smile!
East flowing water: like east flowing water, it is gone forever. White deer: Legend has it that immortals or hermits ride white deer more often. Must wait.
Extended data creation background:
This poem was written by Li Bai after he left Hanlin. In the third year of Tianbao reign of Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty (744), Li Bai was pushed out of Chang 'an by powerful people and was released from Beijing. In the fourth year of Tianbao (745), Li Bai will travel to wuyue from the east foot (present-day Shandong) and write down this poem describing sleepwalking in Tianmu Mountain, leaving it to his friends in the east foot, so he took "Sleeping in Tianmu Mountain but not going to the east foot" as the topic.
