1. Wang Jian of the Tang Dynasty "Watching the Moon on the Fifteenth Night and Send it to Du Langzhong"
Crows roost on the white trees in the courtyard, and the cold dew wets the sweet-scented osmanthus silently.
Tonight, when the moon is bright and everyone looks around, I don’t know who is missing my autumn thoughts.
Translation: The moonlight of the Mid-Autumn Festival shone in the courtyard, and the ground seemed as white as a layer of frost and snow. The crows in the trees stopped chattering and fell asleep. It's late at night, and the cool autumn dew quietly wets the sweet-scented osmanthus in the garden. Tonight, the bright moon is in the sky, and people are admiring the moon. I wonder whose house those vast autumn thoughts fall on?
2. "Looking at the Moon in the Pavilion on the Night of August 15th" by Bai Juyi of the Tang Dynasty
In the past year, on the night of August 15th, there was an apricot garden beside the Qujiang Pool.
On the night of August 15th this year, in front of the Shatou Water Museum in Penpu.
Looking to the northwest, where is my hometown? To the southeast, I can see how full the moon is.
No one could catch the wind yesterday, but tonight the light is as clear as in previous years.
Translation: On the night of August 15th last year, we celebrated the festival at the apricot orchard beside Qujiang Pool in the capital. The night of August 15th this year was spent in front of the Shatou Water Pavilion in Penpu, which had been demoted. How can you see where your hometown is when you look to the northwest? When you look to the southeast, you can see that the moon has become full several times. Yesterday's autumn wind blew through and no one paid attention to the desolate autumn mood. Tonight, the clear moonlight is still as clear as before.

When the autumn wind is seen in Luoyang City, the writer is full of ideas.
I’m afraid I can’t say it all in a hurry, and the travelers have to open it again before leaving.
Translation: The autumn wind is blowing in Luoyang city, and my thoughts are racing in my heart, and I want to write a letter to the family to wish them peace. Worried that there might be something left unwritten in the rush of time, I opened the envelope again and checked it before the sender was about to leave.

Where does the autumn wind come? Xiaoxiao sends the wild geese off.
When a visitor enters the garden tree, the solitary guest is the first to smell it.

The Yangtze River has sadly stagnated, and it will return thousands of miles away.
The situation is high and windy at night, and yellow leaves are flying in the mountains.
