Is it a famous saying that young people don't work hard, but old people are sad?
Strictly speaking, it's not, but it's more suitable for encouraging people to cherish time. The original poem is called Long Song Line, written by an anonymous person in Han Dynasty. Guo Maoqian in Song Dynasty was included in Yuefu Lyrics, and the original poem is as follows:

Long Song Line

Sunflowers in a green garden, the morning dew is waiting for the sun.

in the spring, everything is brilliant.

I'm always afraid that the autumn festival will come, and the yellow flowers will wither.

when will a hundred rivers go east to the sea and return to the west?

if the young don't work hard, the old will be sad.

solving problems

this poem is selected from volume 3 of Yuefu Poems, which belongs to the genus and is a flat tune in the lyrics. "Yuefu Solving Problems" said that this ancient poem "It's not long before you talk about it. When you work hard, you will be happy. If you don't get to the boss, you will be sad." It is obviously a misinterpretation to understand "hard work" as "hard work for pleasure". Many of the five-character ancient poems in the Han Dynasty lamented the short life span and advocated carpe diem. From the overall concept, this poem mainly means that the seasons change quickly and the time is gone forever, so it advises people to cherish their youth and work hard to make a difference. Its emotional tone is positive.

the leaves will turn yellow and the grass will fall and wither.

thousands of rivers are rushing eastward into the sea.

when can they flow westward again?

people don't work hard when they are young,

when they grow old, they can only regret in vain.

as soon as the sun comes out, the dew on the vegetable leaves is dried.

The warm spring is spreading her kindness.
