More than a thousand years ago, the poet Du Mu of the Tang Dynasty expressed his nostalgia for his deceased relatives by describing what he saw in the spring rain at the Qingming Festival which is also called Tomb-sweeping Day Festival.

一千年前,唐代诗人杜牧曾用自己在清明春雨中的所见情形,来表达对逝世亲人的怀念之情。清明节也叫祭祖节。

Qingming is one of the traditional festivals in China, which falls around April 5 of the solar calendar every year and is an important day for most people to go and sweep the tombs and commemorate their ancestors. 

清明是中国的传统节日之一,在每年阳历4月5日左右,也是大多数人们扫墓和纪念祖先的重要日子。

Traditionally, Chinese families clean the grave sites, pray to their ancestors, and make ritual offerings including tea, wine, flowers, food and other things on this festival. The holiday recognizes the traditional reverence of one"s ancestors in Chinese culture.

按传统,中国家庭会在这一天到祖先的坟墓前祭扫,虔诚地向祖先祈祷,并举行祭祀活动,祭品通常包括茶、酒、花、食物等。这个节日体现了中国文化中尊敬祖先的传统。

It’s also the 5th of traditional Chinese 24 Solar Terms. During April, everything in nature takes on a new look, as trees turn green, flowers blossom, and the sun shines brightly. It’s the festival that people can enjoy themselves as well.

清明同样是中国二十四节气中的第五个节气。4月伊始,大自然焕然一新,草木变绿,鲜花盛开,阳光普照,这也是一个人们可以充分享受生活的假期。

The activities of Qingming Festival are colorful, such as spring outing, eating green rice balls, planting trees and etc. It is a perfect time to go out and to enjoy the beautiful scenes of nature during the festival. 

清明的习俗是丰富多彩的,春游、吃青团、种树等等。这是出游的好机会,可以好好地去感受一下大自然的魅力。

In the movie "Coco", there is a classic line that says, "Death is not the end of life, forgetting is.". if you remember somebody in your heart, he will never disappear. Maybe he just accompanies you in another way even if he passed away.

在电影《寻梦环游记》中有这样一句经典的台词:“死亡不是生命的终结,遗忘才是。”只要你记得某个人,他就不会消失。哪怕他已经不在了,或许只是换了一种方式来陪伴你。

Taking the passing of life seriously also gives us the chance to think about the meaning of living.

认真对待生命的逝去,也给了我们重新审视生命意义的机会。

On this day, let"s review and cherish everything we have, as well as those who give love to us. And never forget how much your family loves you.

在这一天,让我们一起回顾和珍惜我们所拥有的一切,特别是那些给予我们爱的人。重要的是,永远不要忘记家人有多么爱你。
