Sweet-scented osmanthus stuffed with walnuts, rice like the Pearl River. See who is good at dropping powder and try to sell Yuanxiao in the wind. ("Shangyuan Zhi Zhu Ci")
Poetry theory
(Song) Jiang Baishi
The honored guests look at the Imperial Street with a hook curtain, and the treasures in the city come for a while.
There is no way out for the flower stand in front of the curtain, and there is no money to refuse to pay back.
The full moon of Lantern Festival
Minnan ballad
Lantern Festival, full moon, the hearts of compatriots in Fujian and Taiwan depend on each other,
Help the old and bring the young back to their hometown, but forget the cross-strait Sauvignon Blanc.
What's it like to have tears in your eyes? It feels so good to meet again after such a long separation!
Lantern Festival, cooking jiaozi, reunion of flesh and blood,
Men, women and children are sitting around the table, and the family is eating Yuanxiao.
The blood in the cradle is hard to break, and the fallen leaves are empty talk in the final analysis.
1. Interpretation: It is explained in the poem that eating Yuanxiao symbolizes reunion. At first, Yuanxiao was called "Tangyuan" because it floated in the bowl, just like a bright moon hanging in the sky. There is a full moon in the sky, jiaozi in the bowl, and the family is reunited, just as the folk song "Selling jiaozi" in Taiwan Province Province sings: "A bowl of soup is full, and eating jiaozi is a good reunion." Symbolizes reunion and good luck. Because glutinous rice balls were originally only available on the market during the Lantern Festival, over time, they were directly called Yuanxiao.
