Yuan JIU ge dong Huang tai yi

When the auspicious day is good, Mu will go to see the emperor happily;

Caressing the sword like jade is beautiful.

Yao Xi Yu Tang, but I want to put Xi Fang Qiong;

Steaming Ji, drinking cinnamon wine jiao pulp.

Raise your voice and drum, (I suspect there is a missing sentence here)

Relieve the festival, An Ge, and Chen Yu, who advocated it.

Lingyan Xi Jiao Fu, Xi Mantang;

The dispute of five tones is complicated, and you are happy in Lekang.

Vernacular translation

Good days, respectful and solemn entertainment for the emperor.

Holding a sword like jade is a warning, and Yu Pei has a sonorous voice.

The luxurious seats on the edge of Yuzhen Town are filled with fragrant flowers.

Cao Hui wrapped himself in Caryophyllum as a cushion to pay homage to the fine wine floating in Gui Xiang.

Hold the drumstick high and beat the drum to slow down the singing.

The gongs and drums are melodious.

The costumes of those witches are beautiful and full of fragrance.

All the voices will ring everywhere, and the emperor will be very happy and happy.
