To Make a Living, One Cannot Avoid It, Cannot Rest
To earn a living, one cannot evade it, cannot rest.
Why seek to end early when the day is long? The longer the night, the more greedy for leisure.
Let a loyal heart shine through the ages; how can one worry about earning a living in this life?
Though official posts offer no respite, let us not seek refuge anywhere.
Year after year, news is cut off; blinded eyes flicker with useless light,
Some say they know what happened at the time; blaming the boatmen has no end,
Fan Li fled and brushed off his robes; by the pool in Quyang, he avoided the wheels and dust,
Rain, lingering birds, also wear golden robes; who doesn't look at his hometown through their clothes?
If only I had known, I would have left to escape the dust and sand; now I look back, I would have rested in the spring of the pavilion,
Chicken soup, three farmers, positive energy, beautiful writing
Reflect on our lives, savor the complexities of life,
