Lyrics praise its beautiful appearance as "a tree of red flowers", radiant, fiery as "a flame", resolute character, fearless of wind and waves, and covering the fog with clouds.
Every sentence in the lyrics is a thing, and every sentence is a person, reaching the realm of unity of characters and unity of characters. The lyrics are well-written, well-sung, concise, rich, popular and appealing to both refined and popular tastes, which not only easily arouses the composer's creative desire, but also lays the foundation for the whole music to appeal to both refined and popular tastes.
