Spring Breeze

Waves thousands of feet crossing the river, bamboos slanting amidst ten thousand stalks.
Sneaking into the night with the wind, silently moistening everything.

The whereabouts of a face unknown, yet the peach blossoms still smile at the spring breeze.
The east wind releases a thousand trees of flowers at night. Blowing even more, stars fall like rain.
I do not know who trims these delicate leaves, but the February spring breeze seems like a pair of scissors.
Despite being ground and struck a thousand times, it remains strong, facing winds from all directions.

Poems of Spring Breeze and Summer Breeze

Spring Breeze:

“Spring Thoughts” - Li Bai (Tang Dynasty)

The swallow grass is like green silk, the Qin mulberry has low green branches. When you think of returning, it is when I, your heartbroken concubine, feel devastated. The spring breeze doesn’t recognize me, so why does it enter through the silk curtains?

“Ode to the Willow” - He Zhizhang (Tang Dynasty)

Jade green makeup adorns a tall tree, with countless branches of green silk cascading down. I wonder who tailored the delicate leaves, for the spring breeze in February is like a pair of scissors.

“Docking at Guazhou” - Wang Anshi (Song Dynasty)

Guazhou of the Jingkou region, with only the Zhongshan Mountain standing in between. The spring breeze once again reaches the southern bank, but when will the bright moon shine upon me?

Summer Breeze:

Autumn Wind:

“Yu Meiren” (Beauty of Yu) - Unknown

The lotus flowers lose their tender faces, and the willow leaves shed new eyebrows. The shaking and falling leaves make people sorrowful, but who knows the heartbreak?

Winter Wind:

“The East Wind Knows My Desire to Travel to the Mountains” - Su Shi (Song Dynasty)

The east wind knows I want to travel to the mountains, blowing away the accumulated rain sounds between the roof edges.

“In Winter Wind, the Manes of Horses Are Proudly Blown” - Wang Anshi (Song Dynasty)

In winter wind, the manes of horses are proudly blown, but how can I ask about their whereabouts once they’ve left?

“North of Jinhua Mountain, West of Fu River” - Du Fu (Tang Dynasty)
