The Little Rain

(By Tu Fu)
Oh, she is good, the little rain!
and well she knows our need
Who cometh in the time of spring
to aid the sun-drawn seed;
She wanders with a friendly wind
Through silent nights unseen,
The furrows feel her happy tears, and lo!
The land is green.
Last night cloud shadows gloomed
The path that winds to my abode,
And the torches of the river-boats
Like angry meteors glowed.
Today fresh colours break the soil,
And butterflies take wing.
Down broidered lawns all bright
With pearls in the garden of the king.

So class, did you understand the poem?
