Farewell to Liu Yu
By Li Qi
In the eighth month the cold reed(芦苇) grows;
The autumn waves surge(涌动) with white crest(浪尖).
The mast(桅杆) shakes as north wind blows;
Why should my guest go to the west?
The rain no longer drops down on hilltop;
Out of the door rises the evening tide(潮汐).
At night along the beach my friend should stop;
Hear a lonely wild goose cry by riverside!
The poem “Farewell to Liu Yu” was an ancient poem written by Li Qi, a poet of the Tang Dynasty. The poem was made up of eight lines, which could be divided into two parts.
The first four lines were the first part of the poem, which started with writing the views. This poet used the cold reed in the wind to lightly point out the parting(离别的) emotions. However, at the moment of parting, Li Qi didn’t write the sad views to express his sorrow, but focused on the white waves of the autumn river, describing the environment. This way of writing has made this parting poem not so sad.
The second part of the poem expressed Li’s best wishes after Liu Yu’s leaving. He wished that the weather would change from rainy to clear, and the ship would sail with the tide so that his friend’s journey could go smoothly. Li also did well in turning his feelings into pictures. For example, in the last line, the wild goose is crying, making the parting alive.
