The green bamboo is half hidden, and the new buds are out of the wall. The color invades the book late, and the shadow is cooler than the bottle.
The rain washed Juanjuan clean, and the wind blew a fragrance. But without cutting, I will meet the clouds.
2. Translation:
Half of the new green bamboo is wrapped in bamboo shoots, and the newly grown bamboo shoots are higher than the wall. Light green invades the book cover and never retreats for a long time; When the bamboo shadow moved, the wine suddenly became cold. After the new rain, bamboo is more beautiful and clean; As soon as the breeze blows, you can smell a faint fragrance. As long as it is not destroyed, Hsinchu will surely grow into the sky.
