How many flowers do you know about falling flowers in a dream? Which ancient poem does it come from?

Meng Haoran●How much do you know about falling flowers in your dreams

Spring Dawn

You don’t realize the dawn when you sleep in spring,

You can hear the singing of birds everywhere.

The sound of wind and rain comes at night,

How many flowers have fallen.

The first person to propose that one knows how many flowers fall in dreams was actually Meng Haoran. In this ancient poem of his, which is well-known to women and children, the sentence "How many flowers have fallen is known" implies the poet's faint sadness and infinite reverie about the passing of spring.

Sanmao●How many flowers do you know in your dreams

I remember when I was young

You loved chatting and I loved laughing

Once we were side by side Sitting under the peach tree

The wind is in the treetops and the birds are singing

I fell asleep somehow

I know how many flowers have fallen in my dream

This poem is quoted in Guo Jingming's "How Many Flowers Have Fallen in My Dreams", but it is actually derived from San Mao's "How Many Flowers Have Fallen in My Dreams".

After the death of her husband Jose, the grieving Sanmao wrote this collection of essays, which is full of her longing for her husband.
