Original works:
Gu lang yue hang
When I was young, I didn't know the bright moon in the sky, so I called it Bai Yupan.
I suspect it is Yao's platform, flying in the sky.
Is the fairy in the moon hanging her feet?
Why do laurel trees become round in January?
The white rabbit is not an old panacea. Can you tell me who eats it?
Toads eat the full moon, the moon, the moon is so dark, I don't know.
After Yi shot down nine suns, the paradise on earth was clear and peaceful.
The moon has been lost, and there is nothing to see except to walk away. Worry, how can I bear the pain, sadness breaks my heart.
Vernacular translation:
When I was a child, I didn't know the moon, so I called it a white jade plate.
I also suspect that it is the bright realm of Yaotai immortals, flying to the sky.
When you look at the moon at night, you can first see that the feet of the immortals begin to appear slowly, and then a group of big osmanthus trees also appear.
Legend has it that there is a white rabbit pounding fairy medicine in the moon. Who is it for?
It is also said that there was a big toad in the moon, which gradually eroded the moon.
Once upon a time, there was a hero who shot down nine suns, leaving only one, so that heaven and man could be at peace.
Obsessed with the destruction of yin essence, the moon lost its luster and was no longer worth watching.
I am very worried about this, and my sadness is really heartbreaking! ?

Overall appreciation
This poem was probably written by Li Bai to cope with the darkness of state affairs at that time. In his later years, Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty indulged in debauchery, favoring Yang Guifei, and became a traitor, eunuch, and border general, making the country a mess. In the poem, "The toad eats a round shadow, and the bright night is over" seems to satirize this dark situation. Shen Deqian said, this is "insinuating that the imperial concubine will confuse the Lord".
The poem begins with the understanding of the childlike innocence of the moon in childhood: "I didn't know the moon when I was a child, so I called it a white jade plate." I also suspect that Yao Taijing is flying on the other side of Qingyun Mountain. " The metaphor of "White Jade Plate" and "Yaotai Mirror" vividly shows the shape of the moon and the bright and lovely moonlight, which makes people feel very novel and interesting. The verbs "shout" and "doubt" convey the innocence of children.
This is a Yuefu poem. Bao Zhao has "Long Moon Tour", writing a beautiful woman's string song about the moon. Li Bai adopted this point.
