Old friends frequently waved to me, bid farewell to the Yellow Crane Tower, and traveled to Yangzhou in this beautiful spring filled with catkins and flowers.

My friend's sail shadow faded away and disappeared at the end of the blue sky, only seeing the first line of the Yangtze River and heading for the distant horizon. ?

Excerpts from the original poem are as follows:

Yellow Crane Tower —— Meng Haoran's farewell on his way to Yangzhou

Tang Dynasty: Li Bai

Old friends frequently waved to me, bid farewell to the Yellow Crane Tower, and traveled to Yangzhou in this beautiful spring filled with catkins and flowers.

My friend's sail shadow faded away and disappeared at the end of the blue sky, only seeing the first line of the Yangtze River and heading for the distant horizon. (Pass only: Only)

The Yellow Crane Tower Farewell to Meng Haoran in Yangzhou is the work of Li Bai when he entered Sichuan to visit Zhuang. Li Bai is a poet who loves nature and likes to make friends. He is "according to a constant habit in my life". He traveled all his life in wandering and wandering, and his footprints spread all over the Central Plains, leaving many works praising the beauty of nature and friendship.

In the fifteenth year of Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty (727), Li Baidong returned to Anlu, Hubei, at the age of 27. He lived in Anlu for ten years, but most of the time, he made friends with poetry and traveled abroad. In his own words, "it's a waste of ten years to keep wine in the land." That is, while living in Anlu, Li Bai met Meng Haoran who was twelve years older than him. Meng Haoran admired Li Bai very much and they soon became close friends. In March of the 18th year of Kaiyuan (730), Li Bai learned that Meng Haoran was going to Guangling (now Yangzhou, Jiangsu), so he sent someone to Jiangxia (now Wuchang District, Wuhan) to meet Meng Haoran. A few days later, Meng Haoran took a boat to the east, and Li Bai personally sent it to the river. When I was leaving, I wrote this song "Farewell to Meng Haoran on the way to Yangzhou by the Yellow Crane Tower".
