Miscellaneous Feelings on the Farm in Summer by Fan Cheng-da (Author)
Ripe plums golden almonds in bounty,
Wheat flowers like snow vegetable flowers scanty.
Long solitary days no one passes my hedged-in space,
Except dragonflies and butterflies dash enjoying their plays.
Grain Full by Wu Ou-ting (author)
White Tung flowers were all falling, breaking the eaves,
It is likely Chinese catalpas will blossom every year.
During Grain Full, we search for herbs between fields,
In winter, we won’t use the three agricultural vehicles.
Inviting Guests by Zhao Shi-xiu (author)
When the plums turn yellow, it rains in every household.
Sounds of frogs are heard from the pond full of grass.
It has passed mid-night, but the guests haven’t shown up.
I have nothing to do but to knock the chess gently and make the snuff fall.
Bamboo Twigs Ballad by Liu Yu-xi (author)
Calm are the river waters, green the willows,
From this bank I’ve heard my love singing fine
Here the sun shines but there it showers,
Can you read my mind if it’s rain or shine?
Enjoying the Cool Air by Qing Guan (author)
I brought my cane with me to look for a good place to enjoy the cool air.
At the south of Hua Bridge, I can sit on the bed leisurely.
Under the moonlight, the sounds of ship horns were heard here and there.
When the breeze of the night stopped, the blossoming lotus in the pond spread wonderful fragrance.
A Pavilion in the Mountain on a Summer Day by Gao Pian (author)
The summer day's as long as the green shade's cool;
The pavilion casts its shadow into the pool.
The gentle breeze ripples the water crystal-clear;
The trellis of roses spreads fragrance far and near.
