The whole poem is divided into four layers.
On the first floor, the family has less leisure, and people are twice as busy in May. In the evening, the south wind rises and the wheat turns yellow.
On the second floor, the mother-in-law paid for food, and the child carried the kettle pulp. Go with Tian Xiang. Ding Zhuang is in Nangang. Filled with the heat of the country, the back was scorched by the sun. I don't know about the heat, but I regret the long summer.
On the third floor, there is a poor woman with her child in her arms. Grab the ear with your right hand and hang the basket with your left arm. Listening to his words of concern is very sad. My family's taxes are gone, so I can take this to satisfy my hunger.
Today, I have no merit, and I have never worked as a farmer. There are three hundred stones in the land, and there is surplus food at the age of eight. I am ashamed to read this in private, and I can't forget it every day.
