《早春呈水部张十八员外》
作者：韩愈
天街小雨润如酥，
草色遥看近却无。
最是一年春好处，
绝胜烟柳满皇都。
The drizzles falling over the capital streets were so soft and smooth.
The green grass were visible from far away while invisible in close.
It is the early spring that the best of the spring,
its scenery is totally better than the entire capital was filled with willow catkins.

Light Rain in Early Spring
The royal streets are moistend by a creamlike rain;
Green grass can be perceived afar but not nearby.
It’s the best time of a year late spring tries in vain
With its capital veiled in willows to outvie.
