Seven poems describing the Dragon Boat Festival (two poems)

Dragon Boat Festival

Wen Xiu (Tang)

The festival is divided into Dragon Boat Festival, which is said to be Qu Yuan.

I can laugh at the emptiness of the Chu River, but I can't wash it straight.

Competition songs (excerpts)

(Tang) Zhang Jianfeng

On May 5, the sun was shining, and Huayang sang Xiaoying by the river.

Before the monarch left the county, he heard the harmony on the river early;

The monarch came out, and the horse was led by the red flag;

The clothes on both sides of the strait smell fragrant, and the silver hairpin shines on the frost blade;

The drums sounded three times and the red flag opened, and two dragons jumped out of the water;

Shadow waves fly to Wan Jian, and the drums sound like thunder;

The drums are getting closer and closer, and the eyes of the two dragons are like an instant;

The people on the slope thundered and the rainbow on the pole was dizzy;

The front boat won the bid to launch, and the rear boat lost momentum and waved.
