Today, the sky is clear in Wan Li. I went to Qiantang Lake with a fan to enjoy the beautiful scenery. On the way, I felt that the sky was exceptionally clear, the water was exceptionally green and the flowers were exceptionally beautiful. My mood is particularly comfortable.
The blue sky turned the water into blue, and I couldn't tell where it was and who it was. Sunlight shines on the water through the cracks in the clouds. There are many trees on the mountain, and I walk through the Woods. I saw the famous Gushan Temple. Birds on both sides compete for the warm branches of the sun. When I walked past Gushan Temple, I saw Jia Ting, whose name was signed. I don't know where the swallows at home are.
I saw some people resting, the bells of Gushan Temple came from the west, some birds were singing loudly, and the birds gave me good news, as if they had something happy to say. In the distance, the flowers are blooming, and everyone is wearing gorgeous clothes. I don't know which one to look at.
After seeing this flower, I missed that one. Young grass grows very short, and some have sprouted. I just can't cross the horseshoe, and the buzzing bees are busy coming to collect honey. The green willows in the distance set off the great Bai Causeway very beautifully. The green willows seem to have turned into sand banks, and the water has also turned into emerald green, which makes spring return to the earth and everything revive. I was also deeply intoxicated by the scenery.
Spring outing in Qiantang River
Tang Dynasty: Bai Juyi
From the north side of Gushan Temple to the west side of Jiating, the lake is just level with the embankment, with low clouds and waves on the lake.
Several early orioles raced to the sunny tree, and their new swallows were carrying mud in their nests.
Colorful spring flowers will gradually fascinate people's eyes, and shallow spring grass can barely cover the horseshoe.
I love the beauty on the east bank of the West Lake, and I can't get enough of it, especially the white sand embankment under the green poplar.
Translation:
From the north of Gushan Temple to Jiating West, the spring water on the lake is just flush with the levee, and the white clouds are low and connected with the lake. A few early orioles scrambled to fly to the sunny tree, and the new swallows were busy building nests and holding mud.
The flowers are blooming, dazzling, and the shallow grass can just cover the horseshoe. I can't get tired of seeing the beautiful scenery on the east side of the lake. Willow trees cross a white sand embankment under rows of shade.

Writing background:
In July of the second year of Changqing (822 AD, Tang Muzong period), Bai Juyi was appointed as the secretariat of Hangzhou, and in March of Bao Liyuan (825 AD, Tang Jingzong period), he was appointed as the secretariat of Suzhou, so this song "Qiantang Spring Tour" was written in the spring of the third and fourth years of Changqing (823 and 824 AD).
The above two couplets of Qiantang Spring Tour are quite similar in artistic conception, but the white poems are more widely spread. William wrote about the poet's favorite sandbar in the east of the lake. Sentimentality in the landscape is the main feature of this poem. It not only writes a strong feeling of spring, but also writes a strong feeling of natural beauty. In the poem, feelings are attached to the scenery, and between the lines, the joyful and relaxed feelings and delicate and fresh feelings about the spring scenery of the West Lake are revealed.
The word "several places" summarizes Ying Ge's call to the other and the poet's modality of seeking sound from left to right. The doubt about the word "whose family" shows the poet's delicate psychological activities and makes readers have rich associations.
"Gradual desire" and "talent" are the feelings and judgments of the poet's observation and appreciation, which make the objective natural scenery turn into the scenery in the eyes with the poet's subjective feelings and infect readers.
Qiantang Lake, which runs through Bai Causeway, is located in the east of the lake and can win the whole lake. I saw that under the shade of Populus cathayana, the flat and slender white sand embankment was lying in the blue waves, and the people riding on the embankment were knitting and enjoying the beauty of spring. In the meantime, the poet enjoyed the lakes and mountains and was relaxed and happy. "Lack of action" means that the natural scenery is beautiful and the poet is still alive.
Bai Juyi (772-846), a native of Xinzheng, Henan Province, was born in Taiyuan, Lotte, Xiangshan, and drunk. He was a great realistic poet in the Tang Dynasty and one of the three great poets in the Tang Dynasty.
