In South Land grows the tangerine;All the winter its leaves shine green.Is the soil so warm over there?The tree by nature can cold bear.Its fruit should good guests entertain,But the valleys so deep remain.One's chances his fate determine,Like nature that ends to begin.Peaches and plums are loved by all;Can't this tree cast a shade at all?译者简介:
