What are the verses of traditional Chinese festivals?

The verses of traditional Chinese festivals are as follows:

1. On this day, the six armies were stationed together, and at that time the Tanabata laughed at leading the ox.

Translation:

This day, the day when Yang Guifei was overflowed to death. At that time, Altair and Weaving Maiden stars were secretly promised to be husband and wife.

Appreciation:

The poem describes the historical fact that when Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty was fleeing to Shu and passing through Mawei Slope, he sacrificed his favorite concubine Yang Guifei in order to save his own life in the face of danger. In the sharp mockery, he rebuked his hypocritical love for the Concubine, which is quite thought-provoking.

2. The wind and rain at the Dragon Boat Festival every year seem to be the cause of Qu Yuan's past grievances.

Translation:

It rains and winds every year at the Dragon Boat Festival, as if it were a cry of injustice for Qu Yuan.

Appreciation:

The poet was touched by reading history at the Dragon Boat Festival, but could not find anyone to talk to. There is a possibility that the poet was also wronged, so he thought that he was in a similar situation with Qu Yuan and felt something.

3. The moonlight and lamps fill the imperial capital, and the fragrant cars and treasures cover the thoroughfares.

Translation:

The imperial capital was filled with moonlight and lanterns, and the spacious avenues were clogged with splendidly decorated and fragrant carriages.

Appreciation:

Zi Gu: the name of a legendary goddess. In the southwest of China, especially in the western Hunan region, folklore says it is the god of toilet, also known as Zigu, toilet, Maogu. Zigu died in anger on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month. Zigu was killed in the toilet and manifested herself on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month. People have formed the custom of welcoming her on the 15th day of the first month to remember her.
