What does "life is long, but this is Xiu Yuan" mean?

It means that the road ahead is long, and I have to look for the sun in my heart everywhere. This sentence is like this: "The road to Xiu Yuan is long and the road to Xiu Yuan is long, and I will go up and down for it" from Qu Yuan's Li Sao.

Li Sao (excerpt)

Pre-Qin: Qu Yuan

There is a long way to go in Xiu Yuan, and I will go up and down.

After drinking too much, the horses in the salty pond always rest on hibiscus flowers.

When the wood breaks, blow the sun and chat with the sheep.

Wang Shu was the pioneer before, and Fei Lian was the subordinate after.

translate

The road ahead is long, and I will pursue my ideal wholeheartedly.

Let my horse drink in the salty pool and tie the reins to the hibiscus tree.

If I break a branch to block the sun, I can wander leisurely for a while.

Let uncle Wang in front be the pioneer, and let Fei Lian in the back follow closely.

Lyrics generally have no stories. Li Sao is a long political lyric poem, which expresses his loyalty and resentment. However, in the first part of the poem, I narrated my family background, the fact of birth and exile, and in the second two parts, I even made up a story about a woman named Yuyuan, the last emperor Chen Yushun, visiting the princess of God, divining with spiritual atmosphere and shamanism.

The Journey to the West and a series of dreamland make this lyric poem have the elements of the story. As if at the end of one's tether, it is a new scene in the blink of an eye, with ups and downs, which makes narrative poetry and lyric poetry merge into one furnace.
