Said by: Yao Nai's Mountain Trip in Qing Dynasty.

Original text:

The cuckoo flies to persuade early ploughing, and the hoe flies in the spring.

Thousand-layer stone trees travel thousands of miles, and the sound of running water in Shan Ye.

Translation:

Cuckoo flies around to persuade people to plant the land early. When the weather is fine, egrets flap their wings in the sky. Walking on the road between layers of stone trees, I heard the sound of running water in the mountains.

Extended data:

Walking on the Mountain describes the rural scene in the spring ploughing season. Based on the clues of mountain behavior, the work selects several typical spring ploughing scenes: the flying cuckoo diligently persuades the ploughing, and the egrets flapped their wings in the bright spring to show their charm. The farmers poured water into the ground, forming a vibrant spring ploughing map of the mountain village.

The mountain scenery of "Melaleuca Stone Tree" is vivid and brings readers into a wonderful realm full of vitality with the singing of birds, the flapping of simple wings and the underwater sound in the mountains.
