Lot 22他乡作客
下下秋水伊人各一方
天南地北恨偏长
相思诗问凭谁寄
不尽凄凉几断肠
Basic reading
AI-assisted readingThe poem in plain language
Autumn water separates people across distant places, extending the ache of longing. A poem of affection has no clear messenger. Physical separation deepens into the sadness of not knowing how to communicate.
The central idea
People are separated by water and distance, with no way to send their longing. The sorrow lies both in separation and in a lack of connection. Longing can be cherished without suspending all of life in waiting; present companionship and a place to belong still deserve care.
