Original Poem
飒飒东风细雨来,芙蓉塘外有轻雷。
金蟾啮锁烧香入,玉虎牵丝汲井回。
贾氏窥帘韩掾少,宓妃留枕魏王才。
春心莫共花争发,一寸相思一寸灰!
Pinyin
sà sà dōng fēng xì yǔ lái, fú róng táng wài yǒu qīng léi。
jīn chán niè suǒ shāo xiāng rù, yù hǔ qiān sī jí jǐng huí。
jiǎ shì kuī lián hán yuàn shǎo, mì fēi liú zhěn wèi wáng cái。
chūn xīn mò gòng huā zhēng fā, yī cùn xiāng sī yī cùn huī!
English Meaning
Rustling, the east wind brings fine rain; beyond the lotus pond, soft thunder. Through the golden toad's lock, incense smoke enters; the jade tiger draws water, silk rope in hand. Jia's daughter peeked through the curtain at young Han Shou; the goddess Zhen left her pillow for the Prince of Wei. Let the heart's spring not bloom with the flowers: one inch of longing, one inch of ash!

About the Poem
One of Li Shangyin's 'Untitled' love poems. Locked doors and drawn well-water figure the difficulty of love; the allusions to longing maidens end in the famous line — each inch of desire burns down to an inch of ash.
