Dong Jun-
I will go to the east and shine on my threshold;
Fu Xi drives safely, and the night is bright;
Riding a dragon and thunder, holding a cloud flag snake;
Take a long breath and you will be on the top, and your heart will be low.
Qiang wine entertains people, and the viewer forgets to return;
I play drums and Xiao Zhong plays drums.
Singing and blowing, thinking about the spirit and protecting the saints;
Flying, Cui Zeng, show poetry and dance;
If the law is combined with festivals, the spirit will come to our days;
Dressed in white, Qingyun shoots Sirius with a long arrow;
Cao Cao arcs down to help Beidou make cinnamon pulp;
I wrote that I was tall and camel, and I was heading east.
