HSK 3

每到母亲节，我都想起"报得三春晖"这句话。

Měi dào Mǔqīnjié, wǒ dōu xiǎngqǐ " bào dé sān chūn huī " zhè jù huà.

Every Mother's Day I think of the line 'repay the warmth of spring sunshine.'

HSK 7-9

谁言寸草心，报得三春晖，母爱是永远报答不完的。

Shéi yán cùn cǎo xīn, bào dé sān chūn huī, mǔ'ài shì yǒngyuǎn bàodá bu wán de.

Who says a blade of grass could repay the spring sun? A mother's love can never be fully repaid.

history

出自唐代孟郊《游子吟》：慈母手中线，游子身上衣……谁言寸草心，报得三春晖。诗人以寸草比游子，以三春阳光比母爱，形成强烈对比。

usage

几乎总与上句谁言寸草心连用。三春晖比喻母爱的温暖，寸草则比喻儿女的微薄心意。
