"Autumn Insects"
Bai Juyi
Under the dark window, there is a humming sound in the deep grass.
My heart misses my wife in autumn, and my ears feel sad on rainy nights.
Interpretation: Hiding secretly under the dark window, hiding gently in the deep grass, thinking about what others are thinking in autumn, and fearing to disturb others on rainy nights.
