Others laugh at me for being crazy, but when I laugh at them, they can’t see what the last two sentences mean?

The last two sentences are "There are no tombs of heroes in Wuling, and there are no flowers, no wine, and hoeing in the fields." It means: Although the heroes in history once achieved glory for a while, their tombs do not exist now. , can only be regarded as a field for cultivation, how can I, Tang Yin, be as free and easy as drinking wine while leaning on flowers.

Original text:

Peach Blossom Temple in Taohuawu, under Peach Blossom Temple Peach Blossom Fairy. The Peach Blossom Fairy planted peach trees and picked peach blossoms in exchange for wine money.

When I’m sober, I just sit in front of the flowers; when I’m drunk, I come to sleep under the flowers. Half drunk and half awake day after day, flowers fall and bloom year after year.

I wish I could die of old age and spend my time drinking wine, and I don’t want to bow my carriage and horse three times. Cars, dust, horses, and wealth are the things of a rich man, wine-gold and flower branches are the fate of a hermit.

If we compare the manifest ones to the hermits, one is on the ground and the other is in the sky. If flowers and wine are compared to chariots and horses, how busy they are and how idle I am.

The world laughs at me for being crazy, but I laugh at others because they can’t see through it. There are no tombs of heroes from the Five Tombs, and there are no flowers or wine to cultivate the fields.

When you are sober, sit quietly among the flowers; when you are drunk, sleep under the flowers.

Day after day between half awake and half drunk, year after year between flowers blooming and falling. (I) just want to die among peach blossoms and fine wine, and I don't want to bow and flatter in front of the carriages and horses (of dignitaries). Busy traffic is the aspiration of the nobles.

Wine glasses and flower branches are the fate and hobby of poor people like me. If you compare my poverty with the poverty of others, one is in the sky and the other is on the ground; if you compare my poverty with the carriages and horses of the dignitaries, theirs are galloping to their heart's content, but I get leisurely pleasure.

Other people laugh at me for being crazy, but I laugh at others for not being able to see through the world. Don’t you see, although those heroes once had their glory, now their tombs are gone and they can only be regarded as In the fields used for farming, there is no way I, Tang Yin, can be as free and easy as I am, leaning on flowers and drinking wine.

"Peach Blossom Temple Song" is a seven-character ancient poem written by Tang Yin, a litterateur in the Ming Dynasty. In this poem, the poet refers to himself as a peach blossom fairy, and uses "aging and dying among flowers and wine" and "bowing in front of chariots and horses" to refer to two completely different lifestyles. The rich and the poor each have their own losses, forming a clear and strong contrast. In contrast, it shows his true heart with a vulgar and negative side in his ordinary reality, with a cynical attitude. The whole poem has clear layers and simple language, but it contains infinite artistic tension, giving people continuous aesthetic enjoyment and a strong sense of identity.

"Peach Blossom Temple Song" is one of Tang Bohu's most famous poems. The poems are majestic and majestic, with a bit of lazy unruliness in the middle, a little sadness in the arrogance, and a literati's nobility in the wildness. .
