Flying down thousands of feet, it is suspected that the Milky Way has set for nine days.

"Flying down to thousands of feet for three days, it is suspected that the Milky Way has fallen for nine days" means that the water in the waterfall falls from a very high place, as if the Milky Way had fallen from nine days. This poem is from Two Waterfalls of Lushan Mountain written by Li Bai, a poet in the Tang Dynasty. This is a landscape poem written by Li Bai when he lived in seclusion in Lushan Mountain at about fifty years old. This poem vividly depicts the magnificent scenery of Lushan Waterfall and reflects the poet's infinite love for the great rivers and mountains of the motherland.

The original poem "Looking at Lushan Waterfall":

The purple mist is illuminated by sunlight, and the waterfall hangs in front of the mountain.

On the high cliff, it seems to be thousands of feet high, which makes people think that the Milky Way has fallen from heaven to earth.

The censer peak gives birth to a purple mist under the sunlight, and a waterfall hangs in front of the mountain like white satin from a distance.

There seems to be thousands of feet of waterfalls on the high cliff, as if the Milky Way had fallen from the cliff for nine days.

This is a landscape poem written by the poet Li Bai when he lived in seclusion in Lushan Mountain at the age of about fifty. This poem vividly depicts the magnificent scenery of Lushan Waterfall and reflects the poet's infinite love for the great rivers and mountains of the motherland.

This poem is very successful in the application of metaphor, exaggeration and imagination, with unique conception, vivid language and vivid washing and training. Su Dongpo appreciates this poem very much, saying that "the emperor sent the Milky Way to fall into the pulse, and there were fallen immortals in ancient times." The "immortal" is Li Bai. Looking at Lushan Waterfall is indeed an example of body description and lyricism.
