The verses on the eve of the Mid-Autumn Festival are as follows:
1. Looking at the moon on the fifteenth night and sending it to Dr. Du
The white trees in the atrium are covered with crows, 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 all admiring the moon. I wonder whose house those vast autumn thoughts fall on?
2. Guizi on the night of August 15th in Tianzhu Temple
A jade stone was found under the moon wheel, and a new one was found in front of the temple. So far, there is no such thing as happening in heaven. It should be thrown to people by Chang'e.
Translation: Osmanthus flowers fell from the sky, as if they were falling from the moon. Picking up the sweet-scented osmanthus in front of the temple, I saw that its color was white and fresh. I still don’t understand why Wu Gang has trouble with the osmanthus tree. This sweet-scented osmanthus was probably scattered by Chang'e and given to everyone.
3. Yangguan Song·Mid-Autumn Moon
The dusk clouds have collected and overflowed with clear cold, and the silver man turned the jade plate silently. This night in this life will not last long. Where can I see the bright moon next year?
Translation: As night falls, the clouds disappear, the sky and the earth are filled with cold air, the Milky Way flows silently, and the bright moon turns to the sky, as white and crystal clear as a jade plate. Every Mid-Autumn Festival night in my life, the moonlight is mostly hidden by wind and clouds, and I rarely encounter such beautiful scenery as today. It is really rare! But next year's Mid-Autumn Festival, where will I go to watch the moon?
4. Mid-Autumn Moon
Ten rounds of frost shadows turn to the courtyard, and this evening, people are alone in the corner. Su'e may not be without regrets, but the jade toad is cold and the sweet-scented osmanthus is lonely.
Translation: The Mid-Autumn Festival has a full moon, the moonlight shines in the courtyard, and the shadows of the plane trees in the courtyard are dancing. I am traveling alone in a foreign land. During the festival, I look at the shadows of the trees under the moon. Time passes slowly, and the shadows disappear unconsciously. Moving. Looking at the bright moon in the sky from a distance, thinking about Chanjuan in the moon palace, I feel regretful now. After all, the only ones accompanying her are the cold moon and the lonely laurel tree.
5. Mid-Autumn Festival to the Moon
On the third and fifth day of autumn in a cloudless world, you can see toads roaming the sea. Until the end of the sky, I never took a private photo of anyone.
Translation: On the Mid-Autumn Festival, the sky was clear and cloudless, and people were looking at the moon rising from the sea. Until there is no sky outside the horizon, the moon never shines just for one family.
