Song sushi
Chen Bing Mid-Autumn Festival, happily drank the next morning, drunk, wrote this word, and missed my brother Su Zhe.
When did the moon begin to appear? I take my glass from a distance. I don't know the palace in the sky, and I don't know the month and time. I'm willing to ride the wind to the sky, I'm afraid I can't stand the cold for nine days in a pavilion of fine jade. Dance and enjoy the shadow of the moon, which is in the world.
The moon turned into a scarlet pavilion, hanging low on the carved window, shining on the sleepy self. The moon should not have any resentment against people. Why is it round when people are gone? People are sad and happy, and they are separated and reunited. The moon has yin and yang, and there are gains and losses. Nothing is perfect, even in the past. I hope people will live for a long time and have a good scenery thousands of miles away.
Translation:
On the Mid-Autumn Festival in Chen Bing, I drank happily until the next morning, got drunk, wrote this word, and missed my brother Su Zhe.
When will the bright moon appear? I asked the sky with my glasses. I don't know what day the palace in the sky is. I want to fly to the sky in the breeze, but I'm afraid I'll feel cold in a palace made of precious jade because it's too high. Dancing to see the shadows is really not like on the earth.
The moon revolves around the scarlet pavilion and hangs low on the carved window, keeping me awake. The bright moon shouldn't hate people. Why is it round when people are gone? People have joys and sorrows, and the moon is dark, bright, full and incomplete. This matter has never been satisfactory. Support people to enjoy this beautiful moonlight for a long time.

Creation background
This poem was written by the author during the Mid-Autumn Festival in Mizhou 1076 (the ninth year of Xining in Song Shenzong). At that time, it was the Mid-Autumn Festival. Facing the bright moon, the poet was in high spirits and wrote this famous poem.
As far as artistic achievements are concerned, this poem is unique in conception, plot and romanticism, and has always been recognized as the swan song of Mid-Autumn Festival ci. Expressively, the first half of the word is written vertically, and the second half is narrated horizontally. The last film is strategically important, and the next film is full of twists and turns.
The first half is the innovation of myths in past dynasties, and it is also the evolution and development of fairy poems in Wei, Jin and Six Dynasties. The second half is pure line drawing, and people and the moon are double. It's called deductive physics, but it actually explains personnel. The pen is intricately circling and vacillating.
