Poems about Magnolia

Tang Dynasty Poetry about Magnolia

"Spring Evening in Fujian" Tang Dynasty: Pei Tingyu

Wushan appears in my dream, the journey to the post station is long, and I follow a lone sailor on the seashore. It rained most of the time in spring for ninety days, and I have not returned home after a journey of three thousand miles. The palm trees are moist and the soil is covered with wild smoke; the willow trees and the deep river are covered with miasma. Leaning on the railing, my sorrow is as vast as the sea, the cuckoo cries over the magnolia flowers.

"Walking Down the Pond" Tang Dynasty: Meng Jiao

The sun is setting by the pond, and the young man returns home early. I use the white feather fan to flirt with my concubine, the magnolia flower. It's not a tree on the city wall, so crows are roosting there.

"Xinyiwu" Tang Dynasty: Wang Wei

Hibiscus flowers bloom at the end of the tree, and red buds bloom in the mountains. The streamside hut is deserted, flowers are blooming and falling one after another. Magnolia is also known as magnolia.

"Three Poems in the Same Rhyme as He Bowen" Song Dynasty: Hong Zikui

The magnolia flowers in front of the yard are bright and shining in the spring sun. The cranes cry at noon, and I sing alone among the flowers. The low dew soaked my clothes, the bright moon was shining brightly on the beams. No one can speak when I reflect deeply, my heart is empty and hidden.

"Ten Poems on Xinshi" Song Dynasty: Huayue

The red doors and white walls are like the home of an exiled immortal, and the autumn tares outside the willows are set against the setting sun. The green clouds in the stream cannot be washed away, and the Mulan boat is tied to the magnolia flower.

Poems about Magnolia in the Yuan and Ming dynasties

"The Red Edition of Zhao Daizhi's Manuscript of Mulanhua Man, Printed by Zhenqitang" Yuan Dynasty: Zhao Yong

I regret to say goodbye to you in such a hurry, looking back, I can only sigh deeply. I remember holding hands by the river, riding horses slowly away, and the vast flat sand. I feel sad and heartbroken at this moment, with only a trace and the bright moon as the distance between us. The lonely boat is heading southwards and getting farther and farther away. Whose house shall I stay at tonight? It’s been more than ten days since we last met, but it feels like several years have passed. Even though I look far to the cliffs, where are my old friends? My tears fall on the reeds. Gathering and separation are hard to predict in ancient and modern times, so let’s ride on the wind and sing the magnolia flower song. I wish my youthful beauty would always remain, without worrying about the distant mountains and rivers.

The thick shade of willows covers the window screen, and the wind carries a wisp of smoke from the stove sideways. The grass in the yard turns green at dusk, and the cuckoo sings on the magnolia flowers.

"Spring Evening in Fujian" Ming Dynasty: Zhang Yu

Leaning on the railing, my sorrow is as vast as the sea, the cuckoo cries over the magnolia flowers.
