In front of the Great Bright Palace, a golden figure stands like a rooster, With a red document clasped in its beak and sealing wax of purple. The messenger star shines brilliantly in the northern sky, And the divine road is treacherous, making its arrival delayed. The轻便小车 stays far away on the bank of the Wuxi River, Fearful of both the river's creatures and the tigers on the land. Mr. Yang is loyal and righteous, not afraid of fatigue, Riding alone southward to convey the divine message. The heavens have long been silent, not hearing thunder and lightning, While I lean on my staff with tears streaming down. The divine grace is so compassionate, So I, an ordinary grass and wood being, cannot be indifferent. On the hill of Stone Cow, drums are beaten, And in short clothes, people dance swiftly like parrots. Using a big gourd to pour liquor to reward Mr. Yang, His qi, like a rainbow, passes through the black dragon gate. Mr. Yang is so brave when killing enemies, Over the past ten years, he has held the banner in peace and war. What is in his empty but broad-minded chest? It's not only armor but also books and poems. As the rooster crows at dawn, signaling the end of the night, He mounts his horse and rides off without hesitation. In the future, when he visits the people in the office of Weicheng, He will tell them about recovery and urge them not to delay.

“杨君杀贼勇有馀,十年谈笑持旌麾”,回顾杨太守过往功绩,英勇杀敌,谈笑间指挥若定,十年军旅生涯,尽显其英雄本色。而“腹中落落果何物,兵甲之外皆诗书”,则揭示了其英勇背后的文化底蕴,表明他不仅是一位武将,更是一位饱读诗书的儒将。
最后,“雄鸡一鸣天欲曙,上马匆匆不回顾”,以雄鸡鸣叫预示黎明将至,杨太守匆匆上马,不恋过往,勇往直前,展现出一种时不我待的紧迫感与使命感。而“他时薇省问苍生,为说来苏莫迟暮”,则是对未来的期许,希望杨太守在更高处能为百姓发声,带来福祉,莫要辜负了这大好时光。
