The Poem of Mulan tells the story of a girl named Mulan, who disguised herself as a man, joined the army in her father's place, built up meritorious deeds on the battlefield, and returned to the imperial court unwilling to serve as an official but only sought to go home for reunion. It enthusiastically praises the woman's courageous and kind-hearted qualities, her zeal for protecting the family and defending the country, and her bravery and intrepidity.

Ki ki reki, Mulan dangtu weaving. The loom is not heard, but the woman sighs. I ask the woman what she is thinking about, what she is remembering.

The woman has nothing to think about, and the woman has nothing to remember. Last night I saw the military post, the Khan's great order of troops. The army book is twelve volumes, and the volumes have the name of the master.

Master has no eldest son, Mulan has no eldest brother. I'm willing to be the city saddle horse, from now on, for the master to conquer.

Ten thousand miles to the military opportunity, the Guanshan Duo if flying. The first time I saw it, it was a very good thing I was there. The first time I saw this was when I was a student at the University of California, Berkeley, and the second time I was a student at the University of California, Berkeley. The general has died in a hundred battles, and the brave man has returned in ten years.

Returning to see the Son of Heaven, the Son of Heaven sat in the Hall of Light. He was so happy that he was able to give me a hundred thousand rewards for my efforts. The Khan asked what he wanted, and Mulan did not need to be a minister, so he was willing to send his son back to his hometown.

Taking care of the sideburns at the window, posting flowers in the mirror. I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to do that. I'm not sure what I'm talking about, but I've been in the same boat for 12 years. I've been traveling with them for twelve years, but I don't know that Mulan is a girl.

Mulan Poetry Appreciation:
In terms of ideological content and artistic techniques, Mulan Poetry is very characteristic and has a far-reaching influence on later generations. The poem uses the proposed question and answer to portray the psychological activities, which is detailed and profound; uses the spreading of prose to describe the behavioral attitude, which is divine; and uses the refined spoken language, which not only tells the tone of a woman, but also enhances the atmosphere of the narrative, and shows the nature of the folk song more.
The story of Mulan is y popular and widely celebrated. According to "Taiping Huan Yu Ji", Huanggang County, Huangzhou (now Huanggang, Hubei) has Mulan Mountain, Mulan Township, Mulan Temple.
