The eternal famous saying is: There is no colorful phoenix flying wings in the body, but there is a clear understanding in the heart. It means: There are no colorful phoenix wings on the body, so they cannot fly together;

But the heart is like a consonance, and the emotions are closely connected.

The stars were shining brightly last night, but there was a cool breeze in the middle of the night;

Our banquet was held on the west bank of the painting building and east of Guitang.

There are no colorful phoenix wings on the body, so they cannot fly together;

But in the heart, they are like a consonant, and their emotions are closely connected.

Appreciation

The chin couplet writes about today’s lovesickness.

The poet has been separated from the one he loves twice. "I don't have the wings of a colorful phoenix" to write about the deep nostalgia and the pain of lovesickness: I hate that I don't have wings like a colorful phoenix to fly to my lover. . "The hearts are connected and connected" describes the depth of mutual understanding: each other's thoughts are like the supernatural rhinoceros horns, closely connected.

"Nothing in the body" and "being in the heart", one outside and one inside, one sad and one happy, are contradictory and wonderfully unified. There is sweetness in pain, there is expectation in loneliness, and the pain of lovesickness is inseparable from the heart. The joy of the story is blended together, and the complex and subtle mentality of lovers who are deeply in love but cannot stay together is portrayed in a detailed and vivid way. These two sentences have become famous throughout the ages.
