Ewì ìbànújẹ máa ń fi ...?

An ewì ìbànújẹ́ is a poem of sadness or sorrow, and a poem in this category is built to express negative, painful emotion rather than pleasant feeling. Among the options given, only ìrunú hàn, the display of distress or agitation, carries a negative emotional charge consistent with sadness.

Joy, laughter, and inner happiness are all positive emotions that belong to poems of celebration rather than sorrow, so they contradict the mood that a poem of sadness is meant to convey.

When identifying the tone a sad poem expresses, rule out any option describing happiness or amusement first, since a poem of sadness must show pain, grief, or distress instead.
