Xiangzishurao village
Author Qin Guan, Song Dynasty
Trees surround the village and water fills the pond; Leaning against the east wind, wandering in high spirits; The small garden is full of spring. There are peach blossom red, plum blossom white and cauliflower yellow.
Far from the wall, the hall is faint; Green flag, by the living water bridge. Occasionally cross Donggang. Yinger is singing, Yaner is dancing and butterflies are busy.
Translation:
Green trees surround the village, spring water overflows the pond and bathes in the east wind. I walk with enthusiasm. Although the small garden is small, it is full of spring. Peach blossom is red, plum blossom is white and cauliflower is golden.
There are several thatched cottages in the distance. The blue flag fluttered in the wind, and the small bridge stood by the stream. Occasionally, I will take a walk through the hills in the east. Birds are singing, swallows are flying and butterflies are flying. It is a beautiful spring.
This word describes the pastoral scenery in spring, with lyrical and simple scenery and vivid and fresh language. Ci poems in Tang, Five Dynasties and Northern Song Dynasty generally describe the love between men and women and the love between husband and wife. Describing farm scenery in simple language and light style is different from Qin Guan's usual ci style.
