Peach Blossoms in the Temple of Great Forest
大林寺桃花
[唐] 白居易(许渊冲译)
All flowers in late spring have fallen far and wide,
But peach blossoms are full-blown on this mountainside.
I oft regret spring’s gone without leaving its trace;
I do not know it’s come up to adorn this place.
人间四月芳菲尽,
山寺桃花始盛开。
长恨春归无觅处,
不知转入此中来。
[词汇] full-blown
adj.成熟的;(花)盛开的;(帆等)张满的
The border dispute turned into a full-blown crisis.
边境争端已演变成全面危机。
