A graceful lady, a gentleman is a good man.

Scattered waterlilies flow left and right.

A graceful lady, I long for her.

The Book of Songs·Jianjia (excerpt)

Jianjia is green, and the white dew is like frost.

The so-called beauty is on the water side.

If you follow it back, the road is long and blocked.

Traveling back from it, Wan is in the middle of the water.

The Book of Songs · Picking Wei (Excerpt)

In the past I have gone, and the willows are still there.

Chang Ge Xing

The sunflowers in the green garden are waiting for the sun to set in the morning dew.

Budze in spring brings brilliance to all things. I am often afraid that when the autumn festival comes, the yellow flowers and leaves will wither. From the east to the sea, when will the rivers return to the west? If a young man does not work hard, the old man will be miserable.

Mulan Ci (Excerpt)

Folk Songs of the Northern Dynasties

The chirping repeats, and Mulan is woven in every household.

The sound of the machine was not heard, but the woman sighed.

Ask her what she is thinking about, and ask her what she is remembering.

The woman has nothing to think about, and the woman has nothing to remember.

……

The male rabbit’s feet are twitchy, and the female rabbit’s eyes are blurred.

Two rabbits walking next to each other can tell whether I am male or female.

Chile Song

Cao Cao

Singing while drinking, what a life!

Like morning dew, it will be more painful every day. Generosity should be shown as generosity, and worries will be unforgettable. How to relieve worries? Only Du Kang. Qingqing Zijin, my heart is leisurely. But for your sake, I still ponder it. Yo yo deer roar, eat wild apples. I have guests who play the harp and sheng. It's as bright as the moon, when can I shed it? Worry comes from it and cannot be cut off. The more unfamiliar you are, the more you cross the border, the more useless you are. Qi Kuo Tan?, thinking about old kindness. The moon and stars are sparse, and magpies fly south. Three twists and turns around the tree, where is the branch to lean on? The mountains never get too high and the sea never gets too deep. The Duke of Zhou vomits food, and the world returns to its heart.

Poetry in Seven Steps

Cao Zhi

Boil the beans to make a soup, and strain the bean sprouts to make the juice.

Drinking, Jielu is in a human environment

Tao Yuanming

Jielu is in a human environment, but there is no noise of carriages and horses.

When I ask you how you can do it, your mind is far away and you are biased.

Picking chrysanthemums under the eastern fence, you can leisurely see Nanshan Mountain. The mountain air is getting better day by day and the birds are flying back and forth.

There is a true meaning in this, but I have forgotten to explain it.

Returning to the Garden and Living in the Fields·Part 1

Tao Yuanming

Seldom has no sense of custom, and his nature is to love hills and mountains.

I accidentally fell into the dust net and passed away for thirty years. The birds in the pond are nostalgic for the old forest, and the fish in the pond are thinking about the old abyss. Open up the wilderness in the south, stay humble and return to the garden. The square house covers more than ten acres and has eight or nine thatched houses. The elms and willows shade the back eaves, and the peach and plum trees in front of the hall. The distant village is warm, and the smoke in the ruins is still there. Dogs bark in the deep alleys, cocks crow in the mulberry trees. The courtyard is free of dust and clutter, and the empty room has plenty of leisure. After being in a cage for a long time, you can return to nature.
