Source: Four quatrains (the third) A group of poems by Du Fu, a great poet in the Tang Dynasty, describing the scene of early spring. Four sentences and four scenes are integrated into a vibrant picture. In the cheerful and bright scene, the poet is endowed with the loss of time and loneliness.
The whole poem is as follows:
"Two orioles sing green willows, and egrets cover the sky."
My window framed the snow-covered western hills. My door often says "goodbye" to ships sailing eastward.
Two orioles sang among the green willows, and a row of egrets flew into the blue sky. The scenery of Xiling Snow Mountain seems to be embedded in the window, and ships coming and going to Soochow are parked by the door.
