When will there be a bright moon?
Song Dynasty: Su Shi
Chen Bing Mid-Autumn Festival, happily drank the next morning, drunk, wrote this word, and missed my brother Su Zhe.
When did the moon begin to appear? I take my glass from a distance. I don't know about palaces in the sky. What year is tonight? I'm willing to ride the wind to the sky, I'm afraid I can't stand the cold for nine days in a pavilion of fine jade. Dance and enjoy the shadow of the moon, which is in the world.
The moon turned into a scarlet pavilion, hanging low on the carved window, shining on the sleepy self. The moon should not have any resentment against people. Why is it round when people are gone? People are sad and happy, and they are separated and reunited. The moon will darken or shine, and it will become round or round. Nothing is perfect, even in the past. I hope people will live for a long time and have a good scenery thousands of miles away.

On the Mid-Autumn Festival in Chen Bing, I drank happily until the next morning, got drunk, wrote this word, and missed my brother Su Zhe.
When did the bright moon begin to appear? I raised my glass and asked the distant sky. The palace in the sky, I don't know what year and month tonight. I want to ride the breeze back to the sky, but I'm afraid that the buildings built by Meiyu can't stand the cold of nine days. Dancing and enjoying the clear shadows under the moon, is it like being on the earth?
The moon revolves around the scarlet pavilion, hanging low on the carved window, shining on the sleepy self. Mingyue shouldn't have any regrets about people, should she? Why is it round when people are gone? People have joys and sorrows, and the moon changes from sunny to sunny. This kind of thing has been difficult to be comprehensive since ancient times. I only hope that all the relatives in this world can be safe and healthy, and even if they are thousands of miles apart, they can enjoy this beautiful moonlight.

Creation background
This word was written by the author during the Mid-Autumn Festival in Song Shenzong on 1076 (the ninth year of Xining). The preface before the word explains the process of writing the word: "Chen Bing Mid-Autumn Festival, drunk with joy. I am pregnant for this article. " Su Shi begged for freedom and served as an official everywhere because of his different political views from Wang Anshi, a political reformer in power. He once asked to be transferred to a place near Su Zhe to be an official, so that his brothers could get together more.
In A.D. 1074 (the seventh year of Xining), Su Shi knew Mizhou. After arriving in Michigan, this wish still cannot be realized. On the Mid-Autumn Festival in A.D. 1076, the moon was bright and Yin Hui was everywhere. The poet and his younger brother Su Zhe had not been reunited for seven years. At this moment, the poet is facing a bright moon, and his heart is full of ups and downs, so he wrote this famous article with the strength of wine.
works appreciation
In the natural scenery, the moon is very romantic, and it is easy to stimulate people's artistic association. A crescent moon can be associated with new budding things; The full moon can be associated with a beautiful reunion life; The bright moon reminds people of an aboveboard personality. In the image of the moon, the infinite longing and ideal of human beings are condensed. Su Shi is a writer with bold personality and romantic temperament. When he looked up at the Mid-Autumn Moon, his thoughts and feelings seemed to have wings and fly freely between heaven and earth. Embodied in the text, it has formed a bold and free and easy style.
This article is one of the representative works of Su Ci. In terms of artistic achievements, it has a unique conception, a unique way and a romantic color, and has always been recognized as the swan song in Mid-Autumn Festival ci. Expressively, the first half of the word is written vertically, and the second half is narrated horizontally. The last film is strategically important, and the next film is full of twists and turns. The first half is the innovation of myths in past dynasties, and it is also the evolution and development of fairy poems in Wei, Jin and Six Dynasties. The second half is pure line drawing, and people and the moon are double. It's called deductive physics, but it actually explains personnel.
The pen is intricately circling and vacillating. In terms of layout, the top piece rises in the air and seems to be empty; The next wave is cascading, returning to reality. Finally, reality and reality are intertwined, Xu. Based on the beautiful and magnificent scenes, the whole poem expresses the contradiction and confusion between wandering immortals to heaven and dancing immortals to the world, leaving their feelings and entering the world, as well as optimism and good wishes for longevity, which is full of philosophy and human feelings.
High-minded, novel and picturesque. Finally, it is the natural expression of the poet's feelings to close the bundle with broad-minded feelings. Emotion and rhyme win each other, and the realm is magnificent, which has high aesthetic value. This word is a good sentence, which typically reflects the clear and broad style of Su Ci.
The author not only praised the "universal consciousness of the world", but also abandoned the modality of "being amazed in the face of magical eternity" (Wen Yiduo commented on the language of "Moonlit Night on a Spring River"). He doesn't treat the change and development of nature completely detached, but tries to seek the meaning of "following fate" from the laws of nature. Therefore, although this word is basically a kind of autumn rhyme with sparse feelings, it also has the charm of "touching the spring" and is fascinating.
This song "Water Tune" has been well received. Hu Zai's Tiaoxi Fishing in Conghua thinks this word is the best one to write Mid-Autumn Festival. This word seems to be a dialogue with the bright moon, in which the meaning of life is discussed. It is both reasonable and interesting, and it is very intriguing. So it has been talked for 900 years. Janice's "first frost Corner": "Singing Dongpo's" Water Tune "is clear and full of snow."
In the thirtieth time of the Water Margin, I wrote August 15th, "I can sing a song about Mid-Autumn Festival to the moon", and I sang "A Mid-Autumn Water Tune by a Dongpo bachelor." It can be seen that the song and yuan dynasties sang. The whole poem is bold and broad in artistic conception and optimistic and broad in feelings. The yearning for the bright moon and the attachment to the world, as well as the romantic color, unique style and flowing language, can all give people a healthy aesthetic enjoyment.
