All kinds of animals look for a place to take shelter from the cold. The sky is wintry, the ground frozen. Only the winter wheat, planted in the deep autumn of the "Cold Dew," is nurtured in the earth, in hope that come spring of next year it will sprout and grow tall.
天寒地凍中，惟有深秋「寒露」時節種下的冬麥，這時正在土中孕育，希望來年春天，能夠發芽茁壯。
