ʻO ka mōʻī Mid-Autumn

He moʻolelo lōʻihi loa ka Mid-Autumn Festival. Ma Kina kahiko. Ua hahai nā mō'ī i ke ʻano o ka hāʻawi ʻana i nā mōhai i ka lā i ka pūnāwai a i ka mahina i ka hāʻule. Ma hope mai, kōkua ka poʻe aristocrats a me ka poʻe akamai i ka hoʻolaha ʻana i ka hana i ka lehulehu. Ua hōʻike ka poʻe i ko lākou mau manaʻo a me nā manaʻo i ko lākou nanea ʻana i ka mahina piha nani o ia pō. Ma ka moʻokūʻauhau Tang, ua lilo ka Mid-Autumn Festival i mea hoʻolauleʻa maʻamau, a ua lilo ia i mea kaulana loa i ka moʻokūʻauhau Song. I ka Ming a me Qing moʻokūʻauhau he ʻahaʻaina nui ia ma Kina.

Ma ka Mid-Autumn Festival, hui pū nā ʻohana a pāʻina nui. ʻAi mākou i ka keke mahina meaʻai maʻamau. Ma muli o ka manawa o ka pua o ka mea kanu. ʻO Cassia Wine ka koho kuʻuna no ka "waina hui hou" i inu ʻia i kēia manawa. Mai ka homophony ma waena o ka "waina" a me ka "mau loa" ma ka ʻōlelo Kina, ʻo Cassia Wine kekahi makana kuʻuna no nā lā hānau ma Kina.
