Among the Chinese and foreign Huang surnames, there is a kind of confession poem unique to Huang. This kind of poem is like a special cultural code. Any Huang clansman, no matter where he is, as long as he can recite this "secret code poem", he can recognize his ancestors and return to the clan, and he will be regarded as a brother of the same clan and get mutual care from his surname.
Huang's confessional poems are divided into so-called "eight external sentences" and "eight internal sentences".
The other eight sentences were written by Shao Wu and Huang, a relative of the Huang clan, when he bid farewell to the philosophers, also known as "poems on horses". The full text of this poem is:
A good horse embarked on a journey to a different place, usually standing at a resort.
Living abroad or in my country, living abroad for a long time is my hometown.
Don't forget to kiss your life sooner or later, and recommend your ancestors sooner or later.
The roots are deep and leafy, and the Sanqi Gate is always flourishing.
The words in this poem are different in all kinds of poems, but they are all the same. Our whole poem was revised in the forty-eighth year of Qing Qianlong (AD 178 1).
The so-called inner eight sentences are quite different in content and writing, circulation in various places, and literature records. Eight farewell poems written by Huang Zhi's wife Shangguan Shi and Wu's wife. 178 1 Chaozhou Huang unified its text as follows:
Qiao Lao once married three wives, Guan, Wu and Zheng Cong.
After leaving on business, I returned to my mother-in-law.
When I was in my 80s, it was difficult to meet each other. Mao Ye and Kyushu had the same roots.
Rich or poor, rich or poor, meet at the beginning of time.
The first two sentences in the poem were written by Guan Shi, and the last one was written by Wu Shi, which is widely spread in Fujian, Guangdong, Jiangxi and China Huang in Southeast Asia. But its characters are slightly different from those circulating around the world. In addition, Huang's Genealogy written by Kangxi and Huang's Genealogy written by Zhang Feng all think that "Neiba Sentences" were written by Huang himself, not by Guan and Wu.
According to Chaozhou Spectrum, another kind of "Inner Eight Sentences", also known as "Dismounting Poems", circulated among Huang surnames in Fujian, Guangdong and Southeast Asia, matched with "Dismounting Poems". The legend was also written by Huang, and the whole poem is as follows:
A pulse is spread in a foreign land, and the eight-character will is very true.
Children and grandchildren chase the former territory of Bentun, and still seek the source from generation to generation.
Ding's case solved everything, obeyed orders, and the ritual was delicious.
Pro-work ancestors are blessed, and the distribution of houses in Sanqi is abnormal.
Others regard the following poem as "eight internal sentences". It is said that the first four sentences of this poem were written by Huang's third wife Zheng, and the last four sentences were given to his younger brothers by Guan Jia's eldest son, the eldest brother of the twenty-one sons, when he left. Their words are circulated, and there are some similarities and differences in different places, but the general content is the same. Some genealogies call it "Ode to Twenty-one Public Names", and its poem reads:
He changed Chu Guiyang and Qu Tang,
Zu Tancheng Guangchang expensive, official Zheng Wujia Yongxiang.
Gong Qiao's official position that day was the cabinet minister of Zhang Kui in the Song Dynasty.
All generations of children and grandchildren should bear in mind that the branches are full of books.
The word 2 1 in the first three sentences of the poem is the name of Huang 2 1 son. These eight sentences are found in Shaowu Peace Spectrum in Fujian and Chaozhou Spectrum in Guangdong, and spread in Fujian, Guangdong, Nanyang and other places.
According to the genealogy of Huang's family in Pingshan, Baoan, Shenzhen, Guangdong Province, "Inner Eight Sentences" is Huang's original song, and its poem goes:
Meijiang is in the old huatang, and the valve is read from the legend of Jiangxia Huang.
Bailihua sealed political traces, and Hanyuan was good at writing for thousands of years.
Face appeared ze Liu sun, and the family followed the Han and Tang dynasties.
If you see Pop, you should respect him. Today, people look back on Levin.
This poem describes the origin of the Huang family. Meijianggai refers to Jia Ying and Levin refers to Zhuan Xu. It says that Hakka Huang is a descendant of Emperor Zhuan Xu and sent Yan Jiangxia. Therefore, this poem is mainly circulated in the Huang family of Hakka. This poem is also found in Chaozhou Pu, and it is believed that this poem is written by the poet Huang Yinggu to congratulate his lineage, rather than "eight internal sentences". According to Chaozhou Genealogy, there were three poems written by Huang Yinggu in that year, and the first and third poems were also regarded as "eight genealogies". This poem says:
Jiangxia is a famous country with a high reputation, and the government is rich in children.
Imperial furnace fairy branch gold list, king valve Yao step edge brocade robe.
The legendary poet Cheng Zude wrote Guo Hua's Second Grass.
This branch will last forever, and the clothes of the ages will be crowned with giant towers.
The ancestral poems such as "eight sentences inside" and "eight sentences outside" unique to Huang family are still widely circulated among Huang surnames all over the country, which shows the cultural characteristics of Huang clan system. It also reflects the cultural mentality of the Huang family in Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan and overseas Chinese.
In addition to the ancestral poems, there is also a palindrome poem circulated in the southeast and Nanyang at home and abroad, which should be read from the word "Cai" and the poems are as follows:
Huang Jun learned the Tao.
School begins, Jun Ying said.
To welcome you back, 1000 horses,
Go back to Ma He and Huang Xiucai.
According to Chaozhou Spectrum, this poem is a tribute to Huang's gathering talents, and its warm grand occasion is vividly on the paper.
