It means: Don’t sigh that the dust in Kyoto will stain your white clothes. During the Qingming Festival, you still have time to return to your hometown of Sanin by Jinghu Lake.
From "The First Spring Rain in Lin'an" by Lu You of the Southern Song Dynasty, the original text is:
The world has been as thin as gauze for many years, who makes people ride in Beijing? The small building listens to the spring rain all night, and the deep alley sells apricot flowers in the Ming Dynasty.
The short paper is laid slantingly, making grass, and the fine breasts of the clear window are used to share tea. Wear plain clothes and don’t sigh in the wind and dust. It’s still time to arrive home during the Qingming Festival.
Translation:
In recent years, the interest in being an official has been as light as a thin veil. Who asked me to ride a horse to Kyoto as a guest and be tainted by the prosperity? Living in a small building, I listened to the patter of spring rain all night long. In the early morning, I heard people hawking apricot blossoms deep in the alley.
I spread out a small piece of paper and scribbled it calmly and diagonally, each word in order. I carefully boiled water, made tea, skimmed foam, and tried to taste famous tea in front of the window on a sunny day. Don't lament that the dust in Kyoto will stain your white clothes. During the Qingming Festival, you still have time to return to your hometown in Sanin by Jinghu Lake.
