The street lights in the distance are very clear.
There seem to be countless stars shining.
Stars in the sky. Now,
It seems that countless street lamps are on.
I think that empty sky,
There must be a beautiful market.
Some items on display in the market,
It must be a rare thing in the world.
You see, the shallow Tianhe,
Certainly not very broad.
Cowherd and Weaver Girl across the river,
I'm sure I can ride a cow.
I think now,
You must walk in Tianjie.
If you don't believe me, please look at that meteor.
Even if they walk with lanterns.

Appreciation of masterpieces
Guo Moruo's poems have always been famous for their strong emotional catharsis, and his "Phoenix Nirvana" is passionate. His "Tiangou" has the momentum of destroying everything; His "Good Morning" and "There is Coal in the Furnace" once made our hearts beat. But this poem is quiet and peaceful, with beautiful artistic conception, fresh and simple. When the poet wrote this poem, he was studying in Japan. Like many overseas students in China at that time, he missed his motherland and was confused about his ideal future. Poets have to think about this with the help of nature and often wander by the sea. One night, the poet walked by the sea, looking up at the beautiful sky and twinkling stars, and his mood became cheerful. The poet seems to have found his ideal, so he wrote it down in his poem-as if it were a scene in heaven.
The poet compared the stars to street lamps. Stars are scattered in the sky, and the distant world arouses people's infinite reverie. Street lamps are a common sight, close to us and can be seen almost everywhere. The poet compared the street lamps in the distance to the stars in the sky, and also compared the stars in the sky to the street lamps on the ground. Is it the poet's illusion, or does the poet want to lead us into the "ethereal realm"? In the poet's mind, heaven and earth are one.
There is a market in the ethereal sky, a prosperous and beautiful market. There are many items on display, all of which are treasures of the world. The poet didn't write these anecdotes specifically, which left us a lot of room for imagination. We can regard them as what we need and bring us peace and comfort of mind.
It is not only a market, but also a life scene. Across the shallow Tianhe River, what is the life of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl who are unswerving in love? Still guarding the Milky Way, can we only face each other from a distance? "You must ride a cow," said the poet. On that beautiful night, they must have wandered in the colorful market. Meteors are lanterns they are holding. A few simple words have subverted the myth that has been circulated for thousands of years and resolved the tragedy of sighing for thousands of years and people's yearning and sorrow.
The style of this poem is desolate, expressing the poet's pure ideal with natural and fresh language, neat short sentences and harmonious and beautiful rhythm. The artistic conception is general and the rhythm is slow, such as a trickle and ripples. But it is this simple artistic conception that brings us rich imagination and makes our hearts wander in the distant sky with poetry and enjoy their beautiful dreams.
