Translation:
Taking Nanyue Temple as the background, this poem expresses thoughts and sighs about the passage of time and natural changes by depicting the scenery and natural elements of the temple.
The first sentence "Brahma Ancient Wooden House" depicts the ancient trees and solemn atmosphere in Nanyue Temple. Vatican refers to the place where the Buddha is, symbolizing the protection and sanctity of religion.
The second sentence, "a curtain of spring shoots", depicts a quiet scene, implying the arrival of spring. Curtain spring refers to the spring water that gushes from the crevices of the stone, and one action means tasting new buds. Here expressed the author's pursuit and hope for new things.
The third sentence, "The official symbol sparks to promote spring roasting", describes the emissary sent by the government to ignite the sparks and urge the arrival of spring. Official symbols and sparks symbolize human power and intervention. Spring baking means the arrival of spring, and baking means baking. This sentence expresses people's desire to chase after spring, and also implies that human resources can't control natural changes.
The last sentence, "but it makes the monk complain about the white snake", is a turning point and irony. Monks should have longed for spring, but because of government intervention, they hated the white snake. The white snake is a symbol of good fortune in China culture, but it is used here to symbolize the interference and destruction of the government. This sentence expresses the author's dissatisfaction with human intervention in nature and his awe of nature itself.
