Poems in memory of deceased ancestors, grandparents

1. "Two Hundred and Five Stanzas" by Shi Zhengjue of the Song Dynasty

Zhan Zhan is not faint, but lingering.

Three generations of Buddhas have protected and protected it as its top form, and ancestors of all generations have received it as their life root.

The gray-headed grandfather occupies the throne in a cold position, and his white-haired children and grandchildren visit him at night.

Vernacular Interpretation

Zhan Zhan is not faint, but lingering. The Buddha of the third generation protects his top appearance, and the life root taught by the ancestors of all generations. The servant grandfather lives in a cold position, and his white-haired children and grandchildren pass by the door at night.

2. "Jihai Miscellaneous Poems 11" by Gong Zizhen in the Qing Dynasty

My grandfather's title was Xiguang, and I was also called Lang in the ancestral hall.

Jun En is enough to say to Yuqiao, why does the seal tomb need to be a hundred words long?

Vernacular interpretation

My grandfather’s title was old Xiguang, and I also tried to be Langci Cao. Your kindness is not enough. Tell Yuqiao, what does the seal script tomb require?

3. "Thirty-Four Stanzas" by Shi Rujing in the Song Dynasty

The protagonist is not exposed in court, but Yuan is from the old days.

With the help of the shadow, the first one is today.

In the Golden Crow Hall on a snowy night, the Jade Rabbit turns around in the summer.

Miaoye’s children and grandchildren all deserve their grandfather.

The wooden man is holding a wooden board and is photographed in the cloud, while the stone girl is sucking the water under the water.

Vernacular interpretation

The hall is not exposed, and the protagonist is originally from the old era. The borrowed shadow is all obvious, the first grievance and trouble today. The golden crow is in the prayer hall on a snowy evening, and the jade rabbit is turning around in the summer. Miaoye’s children and grandchildren all owe their lives to their grandfather. The wooden man is taking a shot with a cloud in his hands, and the stone girl is breathing underwater.

4. Song Dynasty Chen's "Bingxu people drank together with their nephew Wang Jingyuan in Yiwan two poems"

Recalling the past when I was playing with my grandmother, now Jiazi is strong.

It is a long-lasting wish to share the love with our children and grandchildren in the third generation.

Vernacular interpretation

Recalling the past when I was by my grandmother’s side, if the day is strong, the week is strong. It makes a lot of sense to allocate the words of three generations of relatives to children and grandchildren.

5. "Chen Dong of the Song Dynasty" "Xu Shi's Lamentations"

I recall that I often lived with my grandmother in the past, and I went to the hall to celebrate the ceremony.

We have been wandering for ten years, meeting each other underground with no results.

Vernacular Interpretation

I remember that I used to live with my grandmother, and I would hang my beard even when I was celebrating. We have been wandering for ten years, and we meet again underground.
