A silvery moon is shining through the pines, The limpid brooks are gurgling o'er the stones. Bamboos laugh out as girls from washing whirl, The lotus stirs where boats out fishing curl. The scents of spring may go; that's Nature's will. This season here attracts the noble still. 中文解析：  空旷的群山沐浴了一场。 新雨，夜晚降临使人感到已是初秋。 皎皎明月从松隙间洒下清光， 清清泉水在山石上淙淙淌流。 竹林喧响知是洗衣姑娘归来，
