The whole poem "The grass is rich in bean sprouts and the bean sprouts are sparse" is as follows:
Original text: Beans are planted at the foot of the southern mountain, and the grass is rich in bean sprouts and the bean sprouts are sparse. I wake up in the morning to sort out the wasteland and filth, and return with a hoe in the moonlight. The road is narrow, the grass and trees are long, and the evening dew touches my clothes. It's not enough to regret the stain on your clothes, but your wishes are fulfilled.
Translation: I plant beans at the foot of Nanshan Mountain, where weeds are lush and bean seedlings are sparse. I get up early in the morning and go to the fields to remove weeds, and return home under the moonlight when night falls. The mountain path is narrow and overgrown with vegetation, and my clothes were wet with dew at night. It's not a pity that my clothes got wet, I just hope I don't violate my intention to go into seclusion.
In 405 AD (the first year of Yixi reign of Emperor An of the Eastern Jin Dynasty), Tao Yuanming served as county magistrate in Pengze, Jiangxi Province. After only more than eighty days, he claimed that he did not want to "bow down to the village children for five measures of rice" and signed a seal go home. From then on, he ended his life of being sometimes invisible and sometimes official, unable to control himself, and he ended his life in the countryside. After returning, he wrote a set of five poems called "Returning to the Garden and Living in the Fields", of which this poem is the third.
Appreciation of the work "Returning to the Garden and Living in the Fields (Part 3)":
"Returning to the Garden and Living in the Fields (Part 3)" is the third of the five poems "Returning to the Garden and Living in the Fields" written by Tao Yuanming Three songs. This poem describes the poet's experience of farm labor life very delicately and vividly. The use of allusions in the work not only makes the poems more profound, but also does not make the poems lose their true and sincere sentiments due to the use of allusions. The style is light yet elegant, and is filled with the poet's happiness and pride in his retreat.
