Meet at magpie bridge. According to China folklore, magpies bridge the Milky Way on the seventh night of the seventh lunar month, so that the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl can meet on the bridge. The rainy day on Tanabata is their tears.
Queqiao Meeting Poems
1, Watch Bixiao on Tanabata tonight, and let the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl cross the bridge. ? Every family watches the autumn moon, and every family wears HongLing. -Tang Lin Jie's "Begging for Cleverness"
In Chinese Valentine's Day, people look up at the sky one after another, as if they could see the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl crossing the Milky Way and meeting on the Magpie Bridge. Every woman has tens of thousands of red lines when she looks at the autumn moon.
2. The Magpie Bridge is vast, and Yu Pei has a thousand sounds over Lingling. -Tang Xuning's Tanabata
Que Qiaoxian built a small bridge on the vast Milky Way, and the bell rang softly, and the exquisite figure of the mythical woman came leisurely.
3, double starry night, lazy farming, should be envious of the immortals. Lonely immortals should be jealous: beautiful moon sister frowning bright eyebrows, aunt wind blowing abnormal wind and rain. Meeting in a hurry, getting together for a short time is too good, and the sorrow of parting is burnt. The joy of meeting each other is not worth the long sadness, but it adds new sadness to taste. -"Queqiao Xiantanabata" Song Fan Chengda
Tonight is a good time for the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl to meet, and the couple who meet are too lazy to be busy with farm work and weaving. Lonely fairy should be jealous: sister Meiyue is tight-browed, and her period is extremely stormy.
It is better to meet in a hurry than not to meet for a short time and stir up the sadness of parting again. The joy of reunion is always less than the sadness of long separation, but it adds new sadness to bring back to taste.
