岛是海哭碎的新水是海哭尽的泪
[dăo shì hăi kū suì de xīn shuĭ shì hăi kū jĭn de lèi]
'The island is the scattered tears, and the new water is the sea cried out all its tears,' an analogy that the island is the result of the ocean 'crying out all its tears.' This suggests the loneliness and melancholy of waiting and longing.
