Compared with the translation of Su Shi's Dynasty and Song Dynasty,
Bingchen was drunk on Mid-Autumn Festival, so he wrote this article and was pregnant with his son.
when will there be a bright moon? I fetch the wine glass from afar. I do not know the palace in heaven, and what month and when. I would like to take the royal breeze back to the sky, and I am afraid that in the buildings of fine jade, it cannot withstand the cold of nine days. Dance to find out what shadows are like on earth.
turn to Zhuge, low-lying households, and take photos without sleep. The moon should not have any resentment against people, why is it that the people are only round when they leave? Men have sorrow and joy and they part and meet again. The moon dims or shines and it waxes or wanes. Nothing is perfect, not even in the old days. I hope people will live for a long time, and they will be beautiful for thousands of miles.
Translation Note
On the Mid-Autumn Festival in Bingchen, I drank happily until the next morning, got so drunk that I wrote this poem and missed my brother Su Zhe at the same time. When did the bright moon begin to appear? I raised my glass and asked the sky from afar. I don't know the year and month of the palace in the sky. I want to go back to the sky by the breeze, but I'm afraid the building built in Meiyu can't stand the cold that has been towering for nine days. Dancing and enjoying the clear shadow under the moon is not like being on earth. The moon turned around the scarlet pavilion and hung low on the carved window, looking after herself who was not sleepy. The bright moon shouldn't have any resentment towards people, right? Why is it round when people leave? People have changes in joys and sorrows, and the moon has a change from sunny to sunny. This kind of thing has been difficult to be comprehensive since ancient times. I only hope that the relatives of all people in this world can be safe and healthy, and even if they are thousands of miles apart, they can enjoy this beautiful moonlight.
