This poem comes from Du Fu's Delighting in Rain on a Spring Night in the Tang Dynasty, and the original text of the whole poem is as follows:
Good rain knows the season, when spring comes.
Sneak into the night with the wind, moisten things silently.
The wild path is dark, and the river is bright.
Look at the red and wet place, the flowers in Jinguancheng are heavy.
Interpretation of vernacular Chinese: Good rain seems to have picked the right time, coming in the spring when everything was born. With the breeze, quietly into the night. Fine and dense, nourishing everything on the earth. Thick dark clouds covered fields and alleys, and small lights were lit, and fishing boats on the river flashed. Look at the flowers with dew tomorrow morning, and Chengdu will be full of flowers.

Creation background: This poem was written in the spring of 76 1 year (the second year of Shang Yuan). After a period of exile, due to the drought in Shaanxi, Du Fu finally settled in Chengdu, Sichuan. When writing this poem, he had lived in Chengdu Caotang for two years. He cultivates self-cultivation, grows vegetables and flowers, and interacts with farmers. He has deep feelings for the spring rain, so he wrote this beautiful poem, describing the rain on a spring night and nourishing everything.
This poem describes in detail the characteristics of Chengdu spring rain and the scene of rainy night with great joy, and enthusiastically eulogizes the timely and moist spring rain. The poet uses anthropomorphic techniques to describe the spring rain, which is subtle, delicate, vivid and vivid. The whole poem is elegant in artistic conception, quiet in meaning and integrated with painting. This is a poem about rain, with vivid and unique charm.
This is a masterpiece depicting the rainy scene on a spring night and showing a happy mood. From the beginning, I respected the word "good", personified the rain, and said that it "knows the season" and knows how to meet objective needs. Among them, the word "knowledge" is used incisively and vividly, which simply brings the rain to life. Spring is the season when everything germinates and grows. As long as it rains, it begins to rain.
Zhuan Xu described the occurrence of rain, further showing the beauty of rain, in which the words "latent", "moist" and "fine" vividly described the characteristics of rain. Rain is "good" because it is good at timing and "moistening things quietly". Spring rain usually moistens everything with breeze and drizzle.
The beautiful scenery of rainy nights is written in these two sentences. "Black" and "bright" set each other off into interest, which not only points out the thick clouds and rain, but also gives people a strong sense of beauty. The ending is a virtual scene, closely following the word "hi" in the title, and writing the beautiful scenery of Jinguan City in the early morning after the rain.
