On the Lake
Song Dynasty-Xu Yuanjie
The flowers are blooming, the mangroves are in chaos and the orioles are singing, and the grass is growing and the egrets are flying across the lake.
The weather is sunny and people are in good spirits, and the boats are returning home with flutes and drums at sunset.
The first two sentences describe the beautiful scenery of the West Lake in spring. The flowers are blooming on the mangroves, the grass is growing, the warblers are singing, and the egrets are flying. There are sounds and colors, movement and stillness, and it is a beautiful scenery.
The last two sentences describe the tourists’ interest in visiting. The beautiful wind and sunshine actually describe people's good mood. In the sunset, listening to the drums and returning from rowing, it is very harmonious and happy.
