Are there any folk songs or rhymes about the Double Ninth Festival?
One: September ninth, it's the Double Ninth; fly kites, the string is long.Two: August is Mid-Autumn Festival, the brother sends cakes; September ninth is the Double Ninth, the sister sends shoes.
Three: Chrysanthemum is yellow, the strong are stronger; chrysanthemum is fragrant, the healthy are healthier; on September ninth, drink chrysanthemum wine, people get drunk together with chrysanthemums at the Double Ninth.
Four: September ninth, everyone goes up the mountain; look at these young men, they are all panting. Fly a kite high in the air, the sound of the bow is loud, calling the weak ones to stand at the forefront. You need to try hard. Although you have strength, you lack feathers, and you fear falling from the sky, which would bring eternal regret. Don't think the rope can tie the sky, it can only help others suffer. Where else won't it cause suffering? Alas! It's hard to take care of one's fate, hoping only for heaven's mercy, giving you some achievements.
Five: The Double Ninth Festival, again called climbing the mountain. Why do people do this every year? What's the benefit? Even though the autumn mountains are picturesque, it's fine to visit them. Why must we go to the Double Ninth Day specifically to show off our elegance? You say it can avoid disasters, then why not do it earlier? Why do you go alone and leave your family behind? Reading a whole book, you can't see the future. Besides, these small traces, why worry so much? Since you didn't know yesterday, I don't blame you for doing it. Alas! Save your steps, why seek trouble? Instead of sitting quietly and thinking about what else can be done.
