The first period of spring rain in Lin' an
Lu you? Song dynasty.
In recent years, officials are interested in a thin layer of gauze. Who will let me take a bus to Kyoto to visit this bustling city?
Living in a small building and listening to the falling spring rain, you will hear the sound of selling apricots in the depths of the alley early in the morning.
Slowly spread out small pieces of paper sideways, every word is organized, carefully boil water and tea under the sun window, skim it and try to taste famous tea.
Oh, don't sigh that the dust in Kyoto will stain the white clothes, and there is still time to return to the mirror house in Lake Ubak.
Translation:
Nowadays, this situation is as vague as a veil. Who let me ride a horse to Kyoto to pollute the bustling?
Living in a small building and listening to the spring rain all night, tomorrow morning, someone will sell apricot flowers in a deep alley.
Spread out a small piece of paper to write cursive script leisurely, and carefully boil water to make tea in front of Xiaoyu's early Qing dynasty window and taste famous tea.
Don't sigh that the dust in Kyoto will stain the white clothes, and there is still time to return to my hometown by Yinshanjing Lake during the Qingming Festival.
Appreciate:
The first couplet of the poem expresses the inner indifference to the world and laments that the world is as thin as translucent gauze. Zhuan Xu pointed out "poetic eyes" and described them from the perspective of hearing, thus depicting a bright and vivid spring scene.
On the surface, it is a very leisurely and quiet realm, but behind it is the poet's infinite feelings and complaints. The couplet not only expresses the hardships of traveling in the wind and frost, but also implies the evil of Beijing and the intention of staying for a long time.
