What are the poems that press the Milky Way?

A ship full of dreams presses the Milky Way.

From: Cao Qinghu, Longyang County, Tang Xun [Yuan Dynasty]

The autumn wind has blown, and Dongting Lake seems to be aging a lot. After a night of melancholy, Xiang Jun should have more white hair.

Completely drunk, I can't see the sky in the water. A ship full of dreams sank into the Milky Way.

The autumn wind blows hard, and Dongting Lake seems to have aged a lot. After a night of melancholy, Xiang Jun also has more white hair. Drunk in a boat, I saw a starry world, which seemed unreal and confusing. I wonder if the stars in the sky are reflected in the water, or am I dreaming?
