(35) On Mume Blossoms
应教题梅
Wang Mian (1287-1359)

When the violent northern wind blows, man would fall;
刺刺北风吹倒人，
There is no place on earth but overspread with sand.
乾坤无处不沙尘。
The Tartars frozen to death beneath the Great Wall,
胡儿冻死长城下，
Who know mume blossoms still bring spring to southern land?
谁信江南别有春。
