1. "Viewing the Cutting of Wheat"
Tang Dynasty - Bai Juyi
The Tian family has few free months, but in May people are twice as busy. At night, the south wind blows, and the wheat is covered with yellow.
Women and aunts carry baskets of food, children carry pots of pulp, and go to the salary fields with them. Young men and women are in Nangang.
It is full of heat and rustic weather, and the sky is burning on my back. I am exhausted and don’t know the heat, but I regret that the summer is long.
There is also a poor woman with a child beside her, holding an earring in her right hand and a basket hanging on her left arm.
Hearing his words of care makes those who hear them feel sad. When all the taxes on the family fields are exhausted, this is left to satisfy the hunger.
What merit do I have now? I have never been involved in farming and mulberry trees. The official salary is three hundred stones, and Yan has more than enough food every year.
I feel ashamed when I think of this, and I will never forget it.
Translation:
Farmers rarely have free months, and people are even busier in May. A south wind blew at night, and the wheat covering the ridges in the fields was ripe and turning yellow. Women carry meals in bamboo baskets, and children carry water in pots. They follow each other to the fields to deliver meals. The men harvesting wheat are all in Nangang.
Their feet were fumigated by the heat from the ground, and their spines were basking in the hot sun. Exhausted, it’s as if I don’t know the weather is hot, and I just cherish the long summer.
I saw a poor woman standing next to the wheat cutter with her child in her arms, picking up the fallen ears of wheat in her right hand, and a broken basket hanging on her left arm. Listening to her talk while looking at others, everyone who heard her felt sad for her. Because of the rent and taxes, all the land in the family was sold, so they had to pick up some ears of wheat to satisfy their hunger.
Now that I have any merits and virtues, I don’t have to engage in farming and sericulture. He received a salary of 300 shi meters a year, and at the end of the year there was still some food left. I feel ashamed when I think of these things, and I can't forget them all day long.
2. "Send off Taoist Xu for his eastward journey"
Shang Yan of the Tang Dynasty
The people in Chang'an are harassing me, but I have a leisurely mind alone. Go to the sea and the mountains, the wind sings in front of the moon.
The autumn fruits are ripe when the apes are attracted, and the cranes are hidden in the dark clouds. It is easy to change the surname and the number of names, but it is difficult to teach the disciples to find it.
Translation:
There are many people in Chang'an City, and I rarely have time to relax. I cross the island and go to the mountains. The breeze blows in the mountains, and I recite poems under the moon. The ripe fruits of autumn attract apes, and wild cranes hide deep in the clouds. It is not difficult to change one's name. What is difficult is to find the disciples.

Five Dynasties Former Shu - Li Xun
Ripe mountain fruits, fragrant water and flowers, and every house has a pond in the scenery . The bead curtain is rolled up on the Mulan boat, the singing is far away, and coconut wine is poured into the parrot cup.
Translation:
All kinds of fruits on the mountain are ripe, the water chestnuts also exude a clear fragrance, and every household has a pond where lotus roots are planted and fish are raised. The bead curtains were rolled up on the gorgeous Mulan boat, and I seemed to hear the singing from afar. I poured coconut wine into a parrot cup and drank.
4. "Gift to Liu Jingwen"?
Northern Song Dynasty - Su Shi?
The lotuses are gone and there is no rain cover, and the chrysanthemums are still covered with proud frost branches. It is a good time of year to remember that it is the time of orange and green.
You must remember the best scenery of the year, that is in late autumn and early winter when oranges are golden and green.
5. "Tian Family"?
Northern Song Dynasty - Zheng Xie?
Tian Family's gurgling water is muddy, and there is a tall tree and flowers in Mingyuan Village.
The clouds don’t know how good the remaining light is, but they send the light rain into the dusk. ?
Translation:
In this small village, several acres of low-lying fields are flowing with muddy muddy water, and there is a big tree full of flowers in the village, which is very eye-catching. People are here. Enjoy the shade under the trees, which shield you from the hot summer air. The breeze blows, and the tree flowers fall, just like light rain, sending away the dusk.
