微雨即将降临，大地也会散发出清新的气息
燕子在空中盘旋，不时发出优美的叫声
池塘里的青蛙在夜里歌唱
野李树闪烁着白色的光芒
知更鸟会穿上火红色的羽衣
在低矮的铁丝网栅栏上鸣噪着奇思怪想
谁也不会知道这场战争
谁也不会关心它会何时结束
没有谁介意，无论鸟还是树
人类是否会彻底消亡
当春天在黎明时醒来
她几乎不会知道我们已经死去
注：此诗写于1918年，正值德国发动春季攻势的一战期间。也正是这一年，全球流感疫情爆发。
作者表达的是对和平的渴望，当今世界太需要微雨降临。
原文
There Will Come Soft Rains
by Sara Teasdale
There will come soft rains and the smell of the ground,
And swallows circling with their shimmering sound;
And frogs in the pools singing at night,
And wild plum-trees in tremulous white;
Robins will wear their feathery fire
Whistling their whims on a low fence-wire;
And not one will know of the war, not one
Will care at last when it is done.
Not one would mind, neither bird nor tree
If mankind perished utterly;
And Spring herself, when she woke at dawn,
Would scarcely know that we were gone.
