The Lunar New Year’s Day
By Wang Anshi
With crackers’ cracking noise the old year passed away;
The vernal breeze brings us warm wine and a warm spring day.
The rising sun sheds light on doors of each household,
New peach wood charms are put up to replace the old.
(Translated by Xu Yuanchong)

爆竹聲中一歲除，
東風送暖入屠蘇。
千門萬戶曈曈日，
總把新桃換舊符。
