The four-character quatrains of the ancient poems on the Mid-Autumn Festival are as follows:
1. "Looking at the Moon and Huaiyuan" by Zhang Jiuling of the Tang Dynasty
The bright moon rises on the sea, and the end of the world is at this time. Lovers complain about the distant night, but they miss each other at night.
When the candle is extinguished, it is filled with pity and light, and when I put on my clothes, I feel the dew. I can't bear to give it away, but I still have a good night's sleep.
2. "Mid-Autumn Festival" Sikong Picture of the Tang Dynasty
Outside the leisurely singing of the autumn scenery, everything feels leisurely.
If there is no moon this night, the whole year will be like autumn.
3. "Shui Tiao Ge Tou" by Su Shi of the Song Dynasty
When will the bright moon appear? Ask the sky for wine. I wonder what year it is today in the palace in the sky? I want to ride the wind back, but I'm afraid it will be cold in the high places. Dance and clear the shadow, how can it be like being in the human world? Turn to the Zhu Pavilion, look down at the Qihu, and the light will make you sleepless. There should be no hatred, why should we be reunited when we say goodbye? People have joys and sorrows, separations and reunions, and the moon waxes and wanes. This has never been the case in ancient times. I hope that people will last forever and travel thousands of miles like a cicada.
4. "Feelings Under the Moon at Autumn Night" by Meng Haoran of the Tang Dynasty
The bright moon hangs in the autumn sky, moistened with lustrous dew. The startled magpies have not yet settled down, and the flying fireflies roll in behind the curtain.
The cold shadows of the locust tree in the courtyard are sparse, and the neighboring pestle sounds urgently at night. How long the good times are! Standing looking at the sky.
5. "Two Poems on the Moon on the Night of August 15th" by Du Fu of the Tang Dynasty
The full moon flies into the bright mirror and returns to the heart to fold the sword. Turning around and walking far away, climbing osmanthus and looking up to the sky.
There is frost and snow on the waterway, and feathers can be seen on the forest habitat. At this time, the purple air is floating, which is true to the real Cao.
6. "Climbing the Tower on a Mid-Autumn Night to Look at the Moon and Send People to People" Tang Dynasty Rong Yu
Seeing the moon in the west tower is like a river city, and the pulse is long and surprising. Thousands of colorful clouds cover the sky half dark, and a slanting sun halo shines brightly.
The guests went up and down the stairs, chatting and laughing in every house on the first night. The guests from the north have not returned yet, and the letters from the south are worth a thousand pieces of gold.
7. "Moonlight Night Homesickness" by Du Fu of the Tang Dynasty
The stars are sparse and the moon is cold in the Milky Way, and thousands of people are singing silently.
Where is the home thousands of miles away from the mountains, and there are many worries when visitors come to visit at night.
8. "Mid-Autumn Festival to the Moon" by Cao Song of the Tang Dynasty
On the third or fifth day of autumn in a cloudless world, you can see toads roaming the sea.
Until the end of the sky, I have never taken a private photo of anyone’s home.
9. "Chang'e" Tang Dynasty·Li Shangyin
The shadows of candles on the mica screen are deep, and the long river gradually sets and the dawn stars sink.
Chang'e should regret stealing the elixir, and her heart will be filled with blue sea and blue sky every night.
10. "Quelles to the Moon in Yaotai Temple on the Night of August + Fifth" by Quan Deyu of the Tang Dynasty
Yingnu Chengluan has ascended to the sky, and the Ren Temple is empty beside Ding Lake.
The cool breeze is far away in the clear autumn night, and I can see the golden waves shining on the pink fields.
