The beginning of the poem only uses a short pair of couplets, which vividly depicts the happy scene of a pair of swallows and Yaner getting married. From the word "Pianpian", we can feel the unrestrained and free happy mood of the two swallows. Of course, they are excited to build a love nest together, hoping to live a sweet and happy life from now on.
In particular, "Si Er is born in one litter", which is a rare blessing for modern people. This sentence alone draws a picture of a happy family life, which is also the author's deep blessing to the swallows and his joy at their promising future.
The next quartet describes the process of Shuangyan's hard work in raising Xiaoyan, which profoundly reflects the greatness of her parents' kindness in raising Xiaoyan. The love of two swallows for their children is selfless. Although "green worms are not easy to catch", they are willing to sacrifice and go out to find food for their children's satiety.
Day after day's hard work makes them "hungry", but they are still "tireless" and tirelessly "spend ten minutes with each other" just because they are still afraid of hunger in their nests.
