Frost on the door can wake up bones, and the afterglow on the window is good for reading. I plan to sing Xue Mei on March 9th, borrowing the meaning of my own stove.

Interpretation: The door is covered with frost and snow, which is biting cold and sobering. Some sunshine shines through the window, which is just convenient for me to study. Furthermore, I think when it is cold on March 9, you can sing poems and enjoy the plum blossoms and snow, but you still need to borrow your own small stove to keep warm.

I'm going to sing Xue Mei on March 9th and borrow my own small stove.

Full text interpretation:

Today, in early winter, I stood in front of my house. The water in the pond is shallower than before. Lotus is full of dead flowers, and the west wind gradually turns to the north wind. Boxwood does not easily succumb to this cold weather, and still maintains its previous color. The birch tree has lost many leaves weakly, and the remaining half leaves hang sparsely on the branches.

The door is covered with cold frost and snow, which is biting and thought-provoking. Some sunshine shines through the window, which is just convenient for me to study. Furthermore, I think when it is cold on March 9, you can sing poems and enjoy the plum blossoms and snow, but you still need to borrow your own small stove to keep warm.
