In summer, banana leaves flutter and spread clear sounds; in autumn, rain and wind do not make it bitter. It knows that after autumn comes winter and spring, and it is never pessimistic and has an open mind. This is the character of banana.
夏天，芭蕉翻动绿叶，播撒清音；秋天，秋雨秋风，也不以为苦。它知道秋后是冬，是春，永不悲观，心胸豁达，这就是芭蕉的风骨。
《芭蕉》 乔浞
绿云当窗翻，清音满廊庑。
风雨送秋寒，中心不言苦。
Musa Basjoo
Qiao Shi
Afront the window the green clouds unfurl and turn over,
Arousing a dulcet sound throughout the corridor and chamber.
In chilly fall, she suffers from wind and rain.
And, nevertheless, utters not even a single word of grievance or pain.
