Listen to this article《有美堂暴雨》是宋代苏轼创作的一首七言律诗。此诗生动地展现暴雨由远而近、横跨大江、呼啸奔来的壮观景象。首联非常特征地写出了雨前一刹那的气氛，在拨不开的浓云堆积低空的时候，一声炸雷从云中钻出来了，预示暴雨即将来临。颔联三句是想象，四句是亲见。颈联二句具体写暴雨，西湖比作小小的金樽，把急雨比作羯鼓声。尾联写观感，突发奇想，联想到李白故事。诗如写生画家即兴挥毫，临摹自然实景，展现大自然的壮丽雄伟之景。
《有美堂暴雨》 苏轼
游人脚底一声雷，满座顽云拨不开。
天外黑风吹海立，浙东飞雨过江来。
十分潋滟金樽凸，千杖敲铿羯鼓催。
唤起谪仙泉洒面，倒倾蛟室泻琼瑰。
A Cloud-Burst at Youmei Hall
Su Shi
A clap of thunder under the visitors’ feet,
Massed clouds around too dense to sweep away;
A hurricane on the skyline whips up the sea,
And rain pelts down across the River Zhe.
With the sparkle of wine brimming over a golden goblet,
The din of a thousand drumsticks on leather drums,
Heaven splashes the poet’s face with water to wake him,
And the mermaid’s cave pours forth its treasures of jade and jasper.
