Translation of China Classical Rain Pavilion

This pavilion is named after Rain to commemorate the festival activities. In ancient times, when there were happy events, they were used to name things to show that they would never forget. When the Duke of Zhou got rice grains from the emperor, he used "Golden Harvest" as the title of his article. When Emperor Wudi got Baoding, he called it Ding Yuan. Uncle Suntong Chen De defeated Ren Di Qiao Ru and took Qiao Ru as his son's name. Their happy events are different in size, but they have the same meaning.

It was not until the second year of Fufeng that the official residence was built. I built a pavilion in the north of the main hall, dug a pond in the south, drew running water and planted trees as a resting place. This spring, it rained wheat to the south of Qishan, and divination is a good year this year. However, it didn't rain for a whole month, so people were worried. It rained on the third day of March, and it rained again on Jiazi Day. People think this is not enough. It rained heavily again on Ding Mao Day, and it didn't stop for three days. Officials celebrated together in the yard, businessmen sang together in the market, and farmers laughed together in the field. So, the sad people were happy, the sick people were cured, and my pavilion was just created.

So, I raised my glass to the guests in the pavilion and asked them, "Can it not rain for five days?" You will answer,' If it doesn't rain for five days, wheat won't grow.' He asked,' Can it not rain for ten days?' You will answer,' If it doesn't rain for ten days, you can't raise live rice.' No wheat, no rice, natural disasters in the year, many lawsuits and rampant thieves. So even if you and I want to have fun on this pavilion, is it possible? Now God does not abandon the people here. It rains whenever there is drought, so that I can have fun with you in the upper reaches of this pavilion. Thank you for the gift of this rain! Can this be forgotten again? "

After naming the pavilion with it, I went on to sing. The lyrics say: "if there is a pearl in the world, people who suffer from cold can't use it as a short coat;" If there is white jade in the world, hungry people can't take it as food. It rained for three days. Whose strength is this? The people say it's the satrap, and the satrap says it doesn't have this power. Thanks to the son of heaven, the son of heaven denied it. It belongs to the creator, and the creator does not regard it as his own credit, but belongs to space. And the space is so ethereal that I can't name it, so I use it to name my pavilion.
