Good rain knows the season, and when spring comes, which poem is it?
Delighting in Rain on a Spring Night.
Du fu in Tang dynasty
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.
translate
Good rain knows the solar terms of rain. It is when plants sprout and grow in spring.
As the spring breeze quietly falls at night, it silently moistens everything in spring.
On a rainy night, the field path was dark, and only the lights on the river boat flashed alone.
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.

The poem begins with a word "good" and praises "rain". Why is it good? Because it "knows the season". Here is the personification of rain, in which the word "knowledge" is used vividly, and it simply gives life to rain. Spring is the season when everything germinates and grows. As long as it rains, it begins to rain. It's really good.
Zhuan Lian further shows the goodness of rain, in which the words "latent", "moist" and "fine" vividly describe the characteristics of rain. Rain is "good" because it is good at timing and "moistening things quietly". "Sneak into the night with the wind and moisten 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.
Then the tie describes the rainy night scenery from a visual point of view. On a less gloomy night, the path is easier to see than the field, and the river is easier to distinguish than 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. These two sentences describe the beautiful scene on a rainy night. "Black" and "bright" set each other off into interest, which not only points out the thick clouds and rain, but also gives people a strong sense of beauty.
Tailing is an imaginary scene after the rain. Close to the word "hi" in the title, write the beautiful scene of Jinguan City in the morning after the rain. 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 use of words such as "red wet" and "heavy flower" fully shows the delicacy of poetry.
The poet looks forward to such "good rain" and loves our "good rain". Therefore, although the word "Xi" in the title does not appear in the poem, the meaning of "Xi" breaks through the cocoon "(Pu Qilong's Reading). The poet looked forward to the spring rain "moistening things silently", and it began to rain. As soon as he came up, he called "good" with joy. The second couplet was written by the poet. The poet listened attentively and heard the rain pouring down underground on a spring night, just to "moisten things quietly". Dont Ask For Help knew he was naturally "happy" and couldn't sleep. Because the rain is "moist and silent", I can't hear clearly. I am afraid that the rain will stop, so I will go out and watch it. The third section is about what the poet saw. Seeing the strong rain, I can't help but imagine the beautiful scenery of the city in spring after dawn. Its infinite joy is very vivid. Li Yue, a poet in the middle Tang Dynasty, wrote a poem "Watching the Rain": "Mulberry leaves come from the soil without leaves, and the flute pipe welcomes the Longshui Temple. Seeing Zhumen singing and dancing, I am afraid that the sound of spring will swallow the strings. " Compared with those who watch songs and dances in Zhumen, Du Fu's joy of "moistening things silently" in the spring rain is naturally a noble feeling.
