Su Shi's Original Translation of Shuidiao Songs

The original text and translation of Su Shi, the head of Mink, are as follows:

Original text:

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? Ask heaven for wine. 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 to find out what shadows look like on the earth.

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 will darken or shine, and it will become round or round. Nothing is perfect, even in the past. We hope to live a long life for each other to share the beauty of this beautiful moonlight, even though we are separated from Wan Li.

Translation:

On the Mid-Autumn Festival in Chen Bing, I drank happily until the next morning and wrote this song. At the same time, I missed my brother's trip.

When will the bright moon come? I raised my glass and asked the sky. I don't know what year it is tonight. I want to go back to the sky in the breeze, but I'm afraid that the beautiful jade building that returns to the Moon Palace can't stand the cold of nine days. Dancing under the moon to enjoy the clear shadow, it is better to go back to the moon palace than to be on earth.

The moon turned the scarlet pavilion and hung low on the carved window, shining on people who were not sleepy. Mingyue shouldn't have any resentment against people, should she? Why is it round when people are gone? People have joys and sorrows, and the moon changes from sunny to sunny. This kind of thing has been difficult to be comprehensive since ancient times. I hope the people I love can be safe and healthy, even if they are thousands of miles apart, they can share this beautiful moonlight.
