Being a stranger in a foreign land, I miss my family even more during the festive season.

The whole poem is:

Remembering the Shandong brothers on September 9th

Tang Dynasty: Wang Wei

A stranger in a foreign land , I miss my loved ones even more during the festive season.

I know from afar that my brothers have climbed to a high place, and there is one less person planting dogwood trees everywhere. ?

Appreciation:

The poem was written because I missed my relatives in my hometown during the Double Ninth Festival. Wang Wei lives in Puzhou, east of Huashan, so he is titled "Remembering Shandong Brothers". He was probably seeking fame in Chang'an when he wrote this poem. Although the prosperous imperial capital was very attractive to the young scholars who were eager to pursue official careers at that time, for a young wanderer, it was, after all, a "foreign land" without any friends; and the more prosperous and lively the wanderer was in the vast sea of ??people, I seem more and more lonely and without relatives

I am a stranger in a foreign land, and I miss my family even more during the festive season. Wang Wei truly and unabashedly expresses the nostalgia of youth. Just this sentence can deeply touch you, making you feel that it is not only a wise saying that applies to everyone, but also a real feeling deep in your heart. This is the most sincere, blurted out, simple and yet Touching.
