白居易
望海楼[1]明照曙霞，
护江堤[2]白踏晴沙。

柳色春藏苏小家[4]。

青旗[7]沽酒趁梨花[8]。
谁开湖寺[9]西南路[10]，
草绿裙腰一道斜。

Spring View in Hangzhou
Bai Juyi
Viewed from the Seaside Tower morning clouds look bright;
Along the riverbank I tread on fine sand white.
The General’s Temple hears roaring nocturnal tide;
Spring dwells in the Beauty’s Bower green willow hide.
The red sleeves weave brocade broidered with flowers fine;
Blue streamers show amid pear blossoms a shop of wine.
Who opens a southwest lane to the temple scene?
It slants like a silk girdle around a skirt green.
The General refers to Wu Yuan whose wrath against the King of Chu seems to be heard in the roaring tide. The Beauty refers to Su Xiaoxiao who was buried in the West Lake.\
《杭州春望》是唐代诗人白居易所写的一首七律。此诗对杭州春日景色作了全面的描写，把杭州春日最有特征的景物，熔铸在一篇之中，就像用五色彩笔，画出一幅工丽雅致的画图，流溢着浓郁活泼的生活情趣。全诗八句，前六句一句一景，最后两句为一景。七处景色都靠“望”字把它们联在一起，构成一个完整的画面。
