Delighting in Rain on a Spring Night.
Y incarnation Zhu Xijie.
Good rain knows the season, when spring comes.
I mean ..?
Sneak into the night with the wind, moisten things silently.
yīng yún jühíI，Jing chuan Huǒdúmíng .
The wild path is dark, and the river is bright.
Xiǎo kàn hóng shchü？ ，huā zhòng jǐn guān chéng？ .
Look at the red and wet place, the flowers in Jinguancheng are heavy.
This is a poem written by Du Fu, a poet in the Tang Dynasty, in the spring of the second year of Shang Yuan (76 1). This poem depicts the characteristics of Chengdu spring rain and the scene of rainy night with great joy, and enthusiastically eulogizes the timely rain that moistens everything.
Good rain seems to pick the right time, in the spring when everything is born. With the breeze, quietly into the night. Fine and dense, nourishing everything on the earth. Thick dark clouds covered the fields and paths; Small lights, flashing fishing boats on the river look at the flowers with dew. Tomorrow morning, Chengdu will be full of flowers.
