From the Southern Song Dynasty poet Chen's "Watching the Rain", the original text:
Shanke Longzhong doesn't understand farming, and the porch sits and watches the wind and rain.
The front river and the back ridge are covered with clouds, and thousands of valleys and forests send rain.
The bamboo branches are depressed in Shanghai, and the wind blows the mountain corners.
I don't think the house is leaking, but I'm going to wash my armor.
Translation:
The doddering hermit is not familiar with farming, but he sits in the room with the window wide open and watches the changes of rain and dew outside the window.
The river in front of the house and the mountains behind the house are cloudless in Wan Li, and the rolling mountains and green forests send rumbling rain.
The wind blowing from the water made the bamboo branches fall and rise again, and the ridge surging with dark clouds was clearly destroyed.
I don't mind that my residence is shabby and leaking, but I just use this wind and rain to wash the swords and guns of the army.

As an outstanding poet at the turn of the Northern and Southern Song Dynasties, Chen admired and studied Du Fu in his poetry creation. Pay attention to the reality and the national movement and people's livelihood; There are few allusions and clear words, unlike Huang Tingjian, his predecessor, who pursues "no words and no place". Although the poem "Watching the Rain" has some allusions, it is simple and clear. Due to the clever use of figures of speech such as puns, this work has a broad realm and rich connotations.
Although the violent clouds and rain covered everything, everything in the rain did not completely yield, and the situation was not dark. There is also unyielding resistance in the cloudy rain curtain, and there is also a chance of life in the shaky crisis (here mainly refers to the active anti-gold move of Changsha Shoushuaiyan at that time). Necklace is not only the real scene in front of us, but also the poet's expectation of the situation.
The bamboo branches stand tenaciously, and the light is exposed to the high mountain corners, where the wind blows. Here, the poet's careful observation of rain changes shows that he is highly concerned about reality.
