We will introduce you to the "good rain season" in detail from the following aspects:
First, the full text of Delighting in Rain on a Spring Night
Good rain knows the season, when spring comes.
Sneak into the night with the wind, moisten things silently.
The wild path is dark, and the river is bright.
Look at the red and wet place, the flowers in Jinguancheng are heavy.
Second, the background
This poem was written in the spring of the second year of Shang Dynasty (AD 76 1). When writing this poem, he had lived in Chengdu Caotang for two years. After a period of exile, Du Fu finally settled in Chengdu. He cultivates self-cultivation, grows vegetables and flowers, and interacts with farmers. He has deep feelings for the spring rain, so he wrote this beautiful poem, describing the rain on a spring night and nourishing everything.

Four. translate
Good rain knows the season, when spring comes.
Good rain knows the solar terms of rain, and plants germinate and grow in spring.
Sneak into the night with the wind, moisten things silently.
As the spring breeze quietly falls at night, it silently moistens everything in spring.
The wild path is dark, and the river is bright.
On a rainy night, the field path was dark, and only the lights on the river boat flashed alone.
Look at the red and wet place, the flowers in Jinguancheng are heavy.
Looking at the flowers soaked in rain at dawn, they are beautiful and red, and the whole Jinguan City has become a world of flowers and flowers.
Five, Du Fu's other poems
Eight arrays, Wang Yue, Wang Chun, Delighting in Rain on a Spring Night, quatrains. Sixth, appreciate
Delighting in Rain on a Spring Night expresses the poet's love and praise for the selfless dedication to the drizzle on a spring night.
At the beginning of the first couplet, the word "good" was used to praise "rain". In life, "good" is often used to praise people who do good things. Praising rain with "good" now will arouse the association of people who do good things. Next, personify the rain, saying that it "knows the season" and knows how to meet the objective needs. Spring is the season when everything germinates and grows. As long as it rains, it begins to rain. It's really good.
Zhuan Xu "sneaked into the night with the wind and moistened things silently." This is still anthropomorphic. The combination of "sneaking into the night" and "silence" not only shows that rain is drizzle accompanied by breeze, but also shows that rain is intended to "moisten things quietly" and has no intention of seeking "goodness" If you are interested in seeking "good", it will come during the day and create a little momentum for people to see and hear clearly. Just because it deliberately "moistens things quietly" and has no intention of seeking "goodness", it chose a time that does not hinder people's work and labor, and quietly and carefully went underground at the night when people were sleeping. If it rains so well, I hope it rains enough and stays up all night. If it clears up just for a while, then "moistening things silently" will not be very thorough.
Necklace is easier to see in the path than in the field, and the river is easier to distinguish at night when it is not too gloomy than on the shore. Now, looking around, "the wild trails are all black, and the rivers and boats are bright." Only the lights on the boat are on. Besides, you can't even see the river, and you can't tell the path clearly. The sky is covered with dark clouds and the ground is as black as clouds. It looks as if it will rain until dawn.
The tail couplet is about an imaginary scene. After a night of such "good rain", everything will be nourished and prosperous. One of the flowers of all things, the flower that best represents spring scenery, is about to drop with the rain. The poet said: wait until tomorrow morning to have a look. The whole Jinguan City (Chengdu) is full of peanut trees, which are "red and wet", red and heavy, and merge into a sea of flowers.
The description of this poem is exquisite and moving. The plot of the poem ranges from general narration to image description, from hearing to seeing, from that night to the next morning, with meticulous structure and exquisite words. The rainy night scenery, which is quite difficult to write, is very dazzling and makes people breathe a pleasant spring breath between the lines.
