The Twenty-four Seasons Song
The plum blossoms of the first spring are exceptionally colorful, the red apricot blossoms of the rainy season are bright; the thunder of the hibernation is heard in the forests of the reeds, and the butterflies dance among the flowers on the vernal equinox.
The kite is flying off the line at Qingming, and the tea is green in the valley rain; the mulberry fruit is like cherries at the beginning of summer, and the silkworms are planting in the field at the end of the day.
Manchu Jade seedling is placed in front of the court, the summer solstice rice flower is like a white practice; the wind in summer urges the early beans to be ripe, and the red lotus is appreciated by the poolside in summer.
Autumn is a time of sleep, the sunflower in the summer is a smile; white dew, the swallow returns to the geese, the autumn equinox, the fragrance of cinnamon fills the garden.
The cold dew vegetable seedlings green field, frost fall reed flower floating in the sky; the winter report to dedicate the three Rui, snow goose feather piece fly.
The snowy cold plums welcome the wind wild, winter solstice snow omen abundant year; small cold travelers think of home return, big cold years at the end of the celebration of reunion.
