Green bamboo hats, green coir raincoats, no need to return in the slanting wind and drizzle.

Translation of "Yu Gezi"

Appreciation of "Fishermen's Song"

This is a poem that praises the joy of fishermen's life through describing the scene.

A fisherman wearing a bamboo hat on his head and wearing a raincoat, is very leisurely and contented in the slanting wind and drizzle in spring. The colors of the whole poem are bright and soft, with green mountains, clear water, egrets, and red peaches... There is movement in the silence: the river rises, the egrets fly, the slanting wind, the drizzle, everything is shrouded in the mist of the spring river, the leisurely and free joy of life .
