1, Altair
Anonymous [Han Dynasty]
Distant Altair, Jiao Jiao Hehan girl.
Skillful hands, make a loom.
There is no chapter all day, and tears are pouring down.
The river is clear and shallow, with many differences.
Between water and water, there are no words.
translate
Altair can be seen far away in the southeast of the Milky Way, and Vega is bright and bright in the west of the Milky Way.
The weaver girl is waving her long white hands, and the loom keeps ringing.
I didn't knit a piece of cloth all day, and tears rained down.
The Milky Way looks clear and shallow. How far apart are the two banks?
Although only separated by a galaxy, we can only look at each other with deep affection and silence.
2. Hangxiangzi Tanabata
Li Qingzhao [Song]
Grass can fly. Stunned by the phoenix tree. There is a deep sorrow on earth and in the sky. Yuntai moon and earth, locked a thousand times. You come and I go, don't meet.
I haven't seen you for years, but I want to leave my feelings and don't hate being poor. Penny Weaver, this is just separation. Sometimes it's sunny, sometimes it rains, sometimes it's windy.
translate
Crickets in the grass kept chirping, and the buttonwood leaves on the top seemed to be startled by the chirping. From the scene in front of us, it is associated with the sad season on earth and in the sky. In the starry sky on the moon bank in the cloud world, the cowherd and the weaver girl are blocked by thousands of locks and have no chance to meet each other. We can only meet briefly once a year, and the rest of the time is like a floating river in the vast milky way, swimming around, unable to meet or get together.
Magpies can only meet once a year. Maybe Penny and Weaver didn't get together when they broke up. I guess at this time, the black magpie has built the Star Bridge, but the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl have not met yet. Look at the unpredictable weather, wind and rain. Isn't the meeting between the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl blocked again?
3. Indulge in Dongfeng Tanabata

The light from the silver candlestick lit up the painting screen and sat quietly in the pavilion on a sunny night. Women thread spider silk through embroidery needles, dragons and incense burn in the golden tripod, and people are celebrating Chinese Valentine's Day. They lay watching the morning glory and Vega meet at the Magpie Bridge, and the moon floated across the buttonwood and cast a reflection.

Yang Pu [Song Dynasty]
If you don't care, you must ask the weaver girl to get the golden shuttle.
Begging every year is uncontested, but there are also many ingenious ways.

I don't know what the Cowherd is thinking, but I must invite the fairy in the sky to weave the brilliant clouds all over the sky.
On the evening of July 7th every year, people beg the Weaver Maid in the sky for the wisdom and originality of embroidery and textile, but in fact, there are a lot of originality in the world.
5. Autumn night
Du Mu [Tang Dynasty]
In the autumn night, candlelight reflected the screen, and Fan slapped the fireflies with his hand.
The stone steps at night are as cold as cold water, sitting and staring at the cowherd and the weaver girl.
translate
The candlelight of the silver candle reflects the barren painting screen, flapping fireflies with a small fan.
The stone steps in the night are as cold as cold water, lying staring at the morning glory and Vega on both sides of the Tianhe River.
