春雪
新年都未有芳华，
二月初惊见草芽。
白雪却嫌春色晚，
故穿庭树作飞花。
The New Year comes, yet no fragrant blooms are seen;
In second month I'm startled by grass green.
But snow resents that spring is late to wake;
So through the courtyard trees it flies, for spring's sake.
逐句注释
新年都未有芳华，
新年：指农历正月初一，也代表早春。都：完全。芳华：芬芳的花朵。此句写新春已至却仍无花开放，以‘未有’制造期待与怅惘，为下文写雪作铺垫。
New Year: the lunar New Year, also early spring. Dou: entirely. Fanghua: fragrant blossoms. The line says spring has arrived but no flowers have bloomed, using negation to create expectation and mild disappointment, preparing for the snow image below.
二月初惊见草芽。
二月：农历二月，早春。初：刚刚。惊：惊喜、惊讶。草芽：刚长出的草尖。‘惊’字写出诗人突然发现春意的惊喜，情感由抑转扬；草芽象征微弱而顽强的生机。
Second month: the second lunar month, early spring. Chu: just. Jing: surprise and delight. Caoya: newly sprouted grass tips. The word jing captures the poet's sudden joy at discovering spring's presence, turning the mood from disappointment to hope; the grass buds symbolize fragile yet tenacious life.
白雪却嫌春色晚，
却：反而、可是。嫌：嫌弃、抱怨。春色晚：春意来得迟。运用拟人，把白雪写成有情感、会抱怨的人；‘嫌’字使冷雪显得俏皮多情，也暗含诗人盼春之切。
Que: but, instead. Xian: to dislike or complain. Chunse wan: spring's colors are late. This line uses personification, making white snow a sentient being that complains; the word xian makes the cold snow seem playful and affectionate, while hinting at the poet's eager longing for spring.
故穿庭树作飞花。
故：故意、因此。穿：穿过。庭树：庭院中的树木。作：当作、化作。飞花：飞舞的落花。白雪故意穿过庭树，冒充飞舞的花朵，既拟人又比喻；以雪为花，弥补春色来迟的遗憾，想象奇巧，富有乐观幽默情趣。
Gu: intentionally, therefore. Chuan: to pass through. Tingshu: trees in the courtyard. Zuo: to serve as, to become. Feihua: flying fallen blossoms. The snow deliberately drifts through courtyard trees, pretending to be flying flowers. This is both personification and metaphor; by turning snow into blossoms, the poet compensates for spring's delay with ingenious imagination and optimistic humor.
今日赏析
韩愈生活于中唐，此诗大约作于唐宪宗元和年间他在长安任职之时。一个早春时节，新年已过而百花未开，忽见草芽又逢春雪，诗人借雪抒怀，以拟人化手法写盼春、惜春之情，也体现其散文家、诗人善于翻新出奇的笔力。
Han Yu lived in the mid-Tang period. This poem was probably written during the Yuanhe reign of Emperor Xianzong, when Han Yu held office in Chang'an. In an early spring, after the New Year had passed but before flowers bloomed, he saw fresh grass shoots and then a spring snow. He used the snow to express his longing for spring and his delight in its belated signs, employing personification and unexpected imagery characteristic of his inventive style.
