Sunflowers in the garden are lush and crystal clear, waiting for the sunshine. Spring brings sunshine and rain to the earth, and everything is full of vitality and prosperity. I am always afraid that the cold autumn will come, the leaves will turn yellow and the grass will wither. When can a hundred rivers run into the sea and return to the west? If you don't work hard when you are young, it's no use being sad when you are old.

This is a song about life. Singing life begins with the sunflower in the garden, which is called "making things interesting" in writing, that is, "saying something else first causes the words to be sung". In the spring morning, the sunflower in the garden is slim and graceful, with dew rolling on the green leaves, shining in the early morning sun, like a teenager full of youthful vitality. The poet extended from the vigorous growth of sunflowers in the garden and wrote about the whole nature. Because of the sunshine and rain in spring, everything shines with the brilliance of life, and everywhere is full of vitality and prosperity.
