瑞鹤仙 圣诞夜的天空

引蓝移凤阙。三垣间，黑色天蟒挛屈。烟云泽渚接。应玄象，伯利恒灯悬堞。童贞秀澈。降世尘、泥槽石穴。奈歧迷肆扰，明暗星文，梦魂芒惚。

湍濑涡流纹理，冷杉青幻，耸突超越。白髯运斡。杳冥察，灵襟绝。乍麒麟，最大光环流照。腾驾驯鹿彗孛。对灯轮水月，歌云墨晶采缬。

小注：

“蓝移”：当一般将星光的红移被视为是宇宙膨胀的证据时，天文学中同样有很多蓝移现象，例如：同在本星系群的仙女座星系正在向银河系移动。所以从地球的角度看，仙女座星系发出的光有蓝移现象。观察螺旋星系时，旋臂朝向地球接近的一端会呈现蓝移。

“三垣”：中国古代天文学家将天体的恒星分为三垣、二十八宿及其他星座。三垣，即太微垣、紫微垣、天市垣的合称。宋王应麟《小学绀珠·天道·三垣》：“三垣：上垣太微十星，中垣紫微十五星，下垣天市二十二星，三垣，四十七星。”

“伯利恒”：巴勒斯坦南部城市。耶稣降生地，是犹太教和基督教圣地，建有耶稣诞生教堂，地位仅次于耶路撒冷的圣墓教堂。又有拉结墓，故亦为犹太教圣地。

“冷杉”：松科冷杉属的树木常常被装饰成圣诞树，是世界上用作圣诞树最多的树种。作为是圣诞节重要的组成元素之一，近代圣诞树起源于德国，后来逐步在世界范围内流行起来，成为圣诞节庆祝中最有名的传统之一。

“麒麟”：麒麟座V838，是位于麒麟座的一颗红色变星，距离太阳为19892光年。哈勃太空望远镜的科学团队拍摄的麒麟座V838照片，与世界著名画家梵高的巨作《星夜》中的湍流有着相似的神韵。

应玄象，伯利恒灯悬堞。童贞秀澈。降世尘、泥槽石穴。奈歧迷肆扰，明暗星文，梦魂芒惚。欣赏大作，问好威廉兄，

Auspicious Crane-riding Immortal  
One Starry Christmas Eve
By William He

Infalling radiation is blueshifted by now.
In the dazzling nature dim,
Celestial black serpents writhe round and spit.
Flying wisps of clouds seem not to wilt.
The prophecy is delivering,
A wondrous star hanging on Bethlehem wall.
A host of angels appear in the air.
Chiming with silvery rhyme,
Heralding the Child-Christ born.
Hope and depression alternate in life of all,
Thinking of dawn and dusk clear,
The soul fights desperately to keep.

Pure devotion wrapped in the luminous flux,
The Xmas tree finding a home,
A way up high above the clouds.
Santa Claus is stable as his gifts.
White flakes around him whirl,
Tangible symbol of all the gods.
Bright echoed by Monocerotis,
He is riding to the Christian land in field of blue.
The sledges with the reindeers four-in-hand.
People's eyes flicker like broken lights,
Basking in the glory of the overwhelming might.


瑞鹤仙
圣诞夜的天空
作者：何威廉

引蓝移凤阙。
三垣间，
黑色天蟒挛屈。
烟云泽渚接。
应玄象，
伯利恒灯悬堞。
童贞秀澈。
降世尘、
泥槽石穴。
奈歧迷肆扰，
明暗星文，
梦魂芒惚。

湍濑涡流纹理，
冷杉青幻，
耸突超越。
白髯运斡。
杳冥察，
灵襟绝。
乍麒麟，
最大光环流照。
腾驾驯鹿彗孛。
对灯轮水月，
歌云墨晶采缬。

Notes:

“Blueshift”: A term that astronomers use to describe an object that is moving toward another object or toward us. Someone will say, "That galaxy is blueshifted with respect to the Milky Way", for example. It means that the galaxy is moving toward our point in space. It can also be used to describe the speed the galaxy is taking as it gets closer to ours.

“Black Serpent”: The Black Serpent was an incredibly powerful mabeast created by Daphne, the Witch of Gluttony, during the time when the Witch of Envy was free to wander the world. Alongside the White Whale and the Great Rabbit, the Serpent was considered one of the Three Great Mabeasts created by Daphne.

“Bethlehem”：A city in the central West Bank, Palestine, about 10 km south of Jerusalem. Its population is approximately 25,000, and it is the capital of the Bethlehem Governorate. Bethlehem is the birthplace of Savior Jesus Christ. Bethlehem, meaning "house of bread," was also the renowned City of David.

“Monocerotis”: V838 Monocerotis, a spectroscopic binary star system in the constellation Monoceros about 19,000 light years from the Sun. The previously unremarked star was observed in early 2002 experiencing a major outburst, and was possibly one of the largest known stars for a short period following the outburst.

“Reindeer”: The reindeer, also known as the caribou in North America, is a species of deer with circumpolar distribution, native to Arctic, subarctic, tundra, boreal, and mountainous regions of northern Europe, Siberia, and North America. This includes both sedentary and migratory populations. It is the only representative of the genus Rangifer.
