Chun Xue translation:
The New Year is the first day of the first lunar month, and spring begins on this day, so it marks the arrival of spring. There are no fragrant flowers in the Spring Festival, which makes people who have been looking forward to spring scenery for a long time in the long cold winter particularly anxious. There are no flowers in February, but from the side, the feeling is not just a sigh and regret.
On the surface, three or four sentences say that there is snow but no flowers, but the actual feeling is that people can wait for late spring scenery. They can see the figure of spring from the grass buds in February, but the snow can't wait, and it has become a buzz, dancing among trees and decorating themselves with spring.
Introduction to Chun Xue:
Chun Xue is a seven-character quatrain written by Han Yu, a poet in the Tang Dynasty. This poem is novel in conception and unique in association. The first sentence is about people's anxiety about spring in the long cold winter. A word "Du" reveals this eagerness. In the second sentence, the best thing to ponder is the word "essence". It expresses the novelty, surprise and joy when people finally see the bud of "spring scenery" in anxious expectation, which is very vivid.
The poem expresses the feeling that spring has come after all, although it is late. On the surface, there is snow without flowers. In fact, it means that snow can't wait more than people, and flying flowers through trees is spring scenery. In fact, this is the spring scenery that poets expect when there is no spring scenery in nature, which is full of strong romanticism.
