Mid-Autumn Festival, drinking and getting drunk, writing this article, and conceiving a son.
When is the moon? Ask the wine to qingtian. I don't know what year it is in the heavenly palace. I want to go home by the wind, and I am afraid of Qionglou Yuyu, and the high places are cold. Dancing to clarify the shadow, how does it seem to be in the human world?
Turn zhu ge, low Qi household, no sleep. There should be no hatred, why should it be long to go to the other time? People have sorrows and joys, and the moon has clouds and sunshine, and this matter is difficult to complete. May people be long-lasting, and thousands of miles will be cherished together.
This figure is an edited manuscript of this article
【Background】This poem was composed by Su Shi in Mizhou in the Mid-Autumn Festival of 1076 AD (the ninth year of Emperor Xining of the Song Dynasty). At that time, due to the difference in political views between Su Shi and the powerful law changers Wang Anshi and others, they were ostracized, so they asked for release and went to various places to become officials. He once asked to be transferred to a place closer to his brother Su Rui as an official, in order to reunite the two brothers. However, until 1074 (the seventh year of Xi Ning), he was transferred to Mizhou and was still unable to reunite with his younger brother Su Rui. On the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival in 1076 AD, when the Moon was empty, at this time he and his brother Su Rui had not seen each other for seven years, facing a round of bright moon alone, taking advantage of the wine to be in full swing, and could not help but be excited, so he wrote this masterpiece.
【Translation】 During the Mid-Autumn Festival of the first year, I drank wine until the next morning, drunk until I was drunk, Wrote this poem, and missed my brother Su Rui at the same time.
When did the bright moon start to appear? I raised my glass and asked the heavens. I don't know what year and month it is in the heavenly palace. I wanted to ride the breeze back to heaven, and I was afraid that I would not be able to withstand the cold of the nine days of towering in the buildings made of jade. Dancing and enjoying the shadow under the moon, which seems to be in the human world?
Yue'er turned around the vermilion pavilion and hung low on the carved window, illuminating herself without sleep. Mingyue should not have any resentment towards people, why is it only round when people leave? People have changes in joy and sorrow, and the moon has the transformation of clouds and sunshine, which is difficult to be considered since ancient times. I only hope that the relatives of all people in this world can be safe and healthy, and even if they are thousands of miles apart, they can share this beautiful moonlight.
【Appreciation】 This word is the work of the Mid-Autumn Festival, expressing the person's infinite longing for his brother Su Rui. This person uses the image depiction technique to outline a realm atmosphere of haoyue, relatives thousands of miles, and loneliness and distance, setting off his own independent situation and slightly lonely emotions.
In the scenery of nature, the moon is very romantic, and it is easy to inspire people's artistic associations. A crescent moon can be associated with the budding things of the first birth; a full moon can be associated with a beautiful reunion life; the purity of the moon is reminiscent of a bright and upright personality. In the image of the moon, the infinite beautiful vision and ideals of human beings are concentrated. Su Shi is a literary scholar with a bold personality and a romantic temperament, when he looks up at the Mid-Autumn Festival and the bright moon, his thoughts and emotions are like wings, soaring freely in the heavens and on earth. Reflected in the words, a bold and free style was formed.
Su Shi regarded Qingtian as his friend and asked him about the wine, showing his bold personality and extraordinary courage. "I don't know what year it is in the heavenly palace." The praise and yearning for the bright moon are further advanced. "Dancing to find out the shadow, how it seems to be in the human world!" Instead of flying to the cold Moon Palace, it is better to stay in the human world and dance in the moonlight! "Clear shadow" refers to his own clear figure under the moonlight. "Dancing to clarify the shadow" means to dance and play with your own shadow. "Cold in the heights" is not the fundamental reason why the author does not want to return, "dancing to find out the shadow, how it seems to be in the human world" is the fundamental place. Instead of flying to the cold Moon Palace, it is better to stay in the human world, dance in the moonlight, and at least accompany your own shadow. "People have sorrows and joys, and the moon has clouds and sunshine, and this matter is difficult to complete." Of course, people have sorrows and joys, and the moon also has clouds and sunshine. She has been covered by dark clouds, there are times when she has lost and crippled, and she has also had her regrets, since ancient times, it is difficult to have a perfect thing in the world. If so, why grieve over a temporary parting? "May people be long-lasting, and thousands of miles will be cherished together." Since the parting of the human world is inevitable, as long as the relatives are alive for a long time, even if they are thousands of miles away, they can still connect the two places through the bright moon that illuminates the world, and communicate each other's hearts together. "I hope that people will be long-lasting" is to break through the limitations of time; "thousands of miles together" is to open up the barrier of space. Let the common love for Mingyue unite those who are separated from each other. It can be said that this poem is Su Shi's good wishes to all those who have endured the pain of parting on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival.
Since ancient times, people have used the bright moon to express their thoughts, reunions, sorrows..., "I send my sorrow and the bright moon, with the wind until the night Langxi", "raise a glass to invite the bright moon, the shadow into three people", "the sea is born of the bright moon, the end of the world is at this time", "only wait for the bright moon, a thousand miles and the same as the jun"... Do you remember the poems with the bright moon?
