Think of my brothers on a moonlit night.
Dufutang
A vagrant heard the drums heralding the battle, which was the first call of a wild goose on the border in autumn.
The dew turns to frost tonight, and the moonlight at home is bright!
Brothers are scattered, and no one can ask about life and death.
It is inevitable to send books. What can you expect in the war? .
Translation:
The drums on the garrison building cut off people's communication. In autumn, a lonely goose is singing.
Starting from tonight, I entered the Millennium solar term, and the moon in my hometown is still the brightest.
Brothers are scattered, and life and death are homeless.
Letters sent to Luoyang city are often not delivered, not to mention frequent wars.

This poem was written by Du Fu in Qin Zhou in the autumn of 759 AD. In September this year, during the Anshi Rebellion, An Lushan and Shi Siming led troops from Fan Yang to the south, captured Bianzhou and entered Luoyang in the west. Shandong and Henan are at war. At that time, Du Fu's younger brothers were scattered in this area, and because of the war, there was no communication, which made him feel intense anxiety and yearning. Remembering Brothers on a Moonlit Night is a true record of his thoughts and feelings at that time. In the poem, the two brothers were separated by the war and never heard from each other. Watching the autumn night and the moon dew in a foreign land with drums and lonely geese can only double the feeling of homesickness and missing my brother. Du Fu, an exiled poet, is even more sad for his country when he sees the broken mountains and rivers and misses his brother who doesn't know life and death.
