When will there be a bright moon?
[Song] Su Shi
Chen Bing Mid-Autumn Festival, drinking as drunk as a fiddler, wrote this article. Pregnant. When did the moon begin to appear? Ask heaven for wine. 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 to find the shadow, what is it like!
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.
This famous Mid-Autumn Festival poem was written in the ninth year of Xining, Song Shenzong (1076), that is, the Mid-Autumn Festival of Chen Bingnian. It is for the author to express his feelings when he is drunk and misses his brother Su Zhe.
The whole poem uses imagery description and romantic imagination to describe, express feelings and discuss closely around the Mid-Autumn Moon, and thinks from the related categories of heaven and earth, moon people, time and space, and sublimates the feelings for my brother to the philosophical height of exploring optimism and misfortune in life, expressing the author's optimistic and broad-minded attitude towards life and his good wishes and infinite love for life.
