Translation of Classical Chinese by Night Thinkers in Winter Solstice in Handan

When I lived in Handan Inn, it coincided with the winter solstice of the lunar calendar.

Sitting in front of the lamp with my knees in my arms at night, only shadows accompany me.

When I think that people at home may stay up like me,

When talking about me as a "traveler", I can't help thinking of my hometown. ...

The first sentence "moderate hospitality" has taken root in "homesickness". In the Tang Dynasty, the winter solstice was an important festival. There is a festival in the palace where people give each other food and wear new clothes to celebrate the New Year. Everything is similar to New Year's Day. It is only interesting to celebrate such a festival with relatives at home. How will you spend this festival in the inn in Handan? In the second sentence, he spent his holiday in the inn. The word "tuck" vividly describes a sitting posture. The word "in front of the lamp" not only dyes the environment, but also points "night" to show "shadow". A word "companion" connects "body" with "shadow" and gives "shadow" human feelings. Only the shadow of kneeling accompanies the kneeling body, and his loneliness and homesickness are beyond words.

In three or four sentences, write "homesick" on the front. What is touching is that the scene he imagined when he was homesick was the family's yearning for himself. This winter solstice, my family must be very unhappy because I am far from home. When I miss my family in front of the lamp until late at night, my family is still awake, sitting in front of the lamp, "talking about travelers"! what did you say ? This leaves readers with a broad imagination. Everyone who has enjoyed family happiness and had similar experiences can think a lot according to their own life experiences and feel that kind of emotion.
