There has just been an autumn rain in the empty and silent mountain forest; The air in the mountains is particularly fresh at night. The bright moon is in the sky, and the bright moonlight is quietly sprinkled in the dense pine forest; The clear spring water slowly flows over the rocks, making a gentle sound of running water. What a quiet and charming night.

At this time, there was a burst of laughter in the bamboo forest. Oh, so the cheerful girl came back from washing clothes; Suddenly, the lotus leaf in the pond was swinging, and it turned out that a fishing boat was floating down the river lightly. The wheat straw in spring might as well let it rest, and the prince and grandson in the mountains can stay in autumn.

Original poem:

The empty mountains are bathed in a new rain, and feel the early autumn at night.

The bright moon shed clear light from the cracks and cleared the fountain on the rocks.

The bamboo forest is sonorous, the washerwoman returns, and the lotus leaves are swaying to get on the canoe.

Spring spring might as well give it a rest, and the autumn sun can stay on the hills for a long time.

Poetry appreciation

The first couplet points to the theme, the middle two couplets depict the beauty of Mid-Autumn Festival in the mountains, and the last couplet shows the nostalgia for seclusion in the mountains. This poem not only reveals the quiet and tranquil features of the author's pastoral poetry, but also exudes a certain interest, which is one of his representative works of pastoral poetry.

The pen is fresh and natural, without any trace of carving, "writing at will makes you feel comfortable", but it is moist and colorful in the simple nature. The whole poem rhymes beautifully and is poetic.

In particular, the couplets of "Moonlight in the pine forest and Crystal stone in the stream" and the necklaces of "Laundry girl singing in bamboo, lotus leaf in front of fishing boat" are vivid, colorful, dynamic and static, and have the beauty of agility and order. This poem typically embodies the characteristics of Wang Wei's "painting in poetry".
