Yang Wanli: Light Rain on a Variety of Fields

Light Rain On a Variety of Fields

雨 后 田 间 杂 纪

行 到 深 村 麦 更 深
放 低 小 轿 过 桑 阳。
再 三 传 语 春 寒 道
好 为 农 家 惜 绿 针!

Yu Hou Tian Jian Za Ji

Xing dao shen cun mai geng shen
Fang di xiao jiao guo sang yang.
Zai san chuan yu chun han dao
Hao wei nong jia xi lu zhen!

Light Rain On a Variety of Fields

During my travels, villages deep with grains
So many mulberry trees and bridges built too low, officials in sedan chairs have to get out and walk.
Several times passed on my complaints of cold and early spring roads
Able and efficient family farmers value these green rice sprouts!
