Zhuge Liang Enters Shu孔明入川
On summer days of blazing heat, the day is longest;
everyone suffers from the oppressive heat.
Yet heaven and earth understand people's hearts:
a gentle breeze brings coolness of its own accord.
English rendering: our editorial version.
Discomfort will be relieved naturally. Relief comes at the right time.
詩意:此卦人人愁熱之象。凡事隨心從意也。

另本 Variant:夏日初臨日正常,人皆愁惱熱非常,天公也解諸人意,故遣薰風特送涼。

The traveller is about to set off home.
