The story about Prelude to Water Melody（《水调歌头》） dates back to the Mid-Autumn Festival in 1076.Su Shi, a great writer in the Song Dynasty, couldn't sleep that night. For seven years, he had been separated from his brother. Looking at the moon and thinking of his brother, as well as the ups and downs of his life, he wrote the poem. Here are some famous lines.
Men have sorrow and joy; they part or meet again;
The moon is bright or dim and she may wax（月满） or wane（月缺）.
There has been nothing perfect since the olden days.
So let us wish that man will live long as he can!
Though miles apart, we'll share the beauty she displays.
For the first two lines, the writer compares the life of a man to the changing face of the moon. In Chinese culture, a full moon symbolizes perfection and getting together. When the moon is round and fair but people are separated with their loved ones, that's heartbreaking.
Before the comparison, Su Shi complained about the “ruthless” moon. However, he soon realized that no one had an easy ride, just like the moon may not always be bright. That's why the poet said “此事古难全”.
