The seven-character quatrains of the ancient Mid-Autumn Festival poem are as follows:
1. "Mid-Autumn Festival": The atmosphere of Mid-Autumn Festival is like the Double Ninth Festival, and fortunately there is the fragrance of osmanthus in front of the court. There is nothing at the base of the book, leaving it desolate in the wind and rain.
2. "Mid-Autumn Festival": Corn cobs and soybean leaves turn yellow, and geese return home singing in the sky. The bright moon sheds silver to evoke autumn thoughts, and relatives express their heartfelt feelings during the festive season.
3. "Mid-Autumn Festival": The moonlight is bright during the Mid-Autumn Festival, and the old woman is panicking under the tree. I advise you not to give up climbing the tower to look at Chang'e and Hou Yi longing for a foreign land.
4. "Mid-Autumn Festival": A pool of autumn water sways the quiet beauty, leaning alone on the railing, the flying mirror is round. Sitting on a high mountain in sorrow, listening to magpies, chanting short sentences and being lazy to tune the strings. I summoned the Jade Rabbit from afar to drink wine, and looked up at the sky while inspecting the spaceship. My friends are admiring the moon together on other mountains, and Gesang is picking up Luan paper.
5. "Mid-Autumn Festival": It's the time of year to hold the moon in my arms, when the lights are dim and the moon is full. The jade rabbit is obsessed with making medicine, and Chang'e is drunk and listening to the strings. The whole family divides the melon cakes, and the country strives for glory without nightfall. Don’t miss the good times tonight, the soul of poetry leaps across the green paper.
6. "The Eve of Mid-Autumn Festival": The flowers of Longxi have fallen for many years, and the wild geese have passed in front of Nanling. The autumn wind of thousands of miles is the brightest night, and it is the day of the Xijiang Fishing Fire Moon.
7. "Climbing the Tower in Mid-Autumn Festival": The Xijiang River is very prosperous this night, and there is a bright pearl in the blue sky. The autumn wind blows through the Longguang Pagoda, and you can smell the vast cold red osmanthus.
8. "Chan Juan Yan Ying": Forty-five years of flower moonlight night, why is this autumn so sad? Chanjuan should be released to other places, to illuminate the long shadows of the geese in the clouds.
The origin of the Mid-Autumn Festival:
The Mid-Autumn Festival evolved from the story of Chang'e flying to the moon. Hou Yi shot down the nine extra suns, and then God gave him the medicine to become an immortal. But he was reluctant to leave his wife Chang'e and gave the medicine to Chang'e for safekeeping. On August 15th, Chang'e took the fairy medicine and flew to the moon. Because Hou Yi missed Chang'e very much, on this day every year, Chang'e's favorite food was placed in the yard. Something, looking forward to her return and reunion.
This happens every year and has evolved into a festival for generations. Because this day coincides with the Mid-Autumn Festival, it is called the Mid-Autumn Festival. The Mid-Autumn Festival evolved from worshiping the God of the Land. In a farming society, crops are extremely important to farmers, so people often worship the land. During the autumn harvest season, farmers will worship the God of the Land, and August 15th in the lunar calendar is the time of harvesting crops, so Gradually evolved into the Mid-Autumn Festival.
