MAIN MEANING OF THE POEMLISTEN TO SHIRLEY PLAY & SING THE POEM

Peach Blossoms of Da Ling Temple

By Bai Juyi   ( Tang )

Fragrant flowers have withered in April,
Peach blossoms in the Temple on the mountain just start to open,
I often feel a pity there is no a place to find spring,
I did not know it has transferred here...
