歲月走得快***

往日精壯的少年
轉眼成奮鬥中年
天天汗水揾两餐
憂柴憂米為頭家
只求子女快成長
還要儲蓄過晚年
將來可創新天地
建立退休的樂園

Time passes by quickly***

Time goes by so quickly that your youth flies by, and you become a middle aged person. You work extremely hard to support your family. In addition to raising your children, you also need to think of your retirement. Start saving as soon as you can so that you won’t become a financial burden when you do retire.

歲月不留人***

歲月流逝人會老
坐著也會打瞌睡
躺著時則睡不著
剛剛說完的話題
轉眼又再重複說
此時要鼓勵自己
人老但是心不老
始終寶刀還未老

Once time is gone, it never returns***

Time goes fast and people get old just as fast. Old people can fall asleep when they are sitting down. Yet when they are lying down, they have difficulty falling asleep. Sometimes after they finish saying something, they repeat it immediately. Always remember to remind yourself that your body may get old but you are still young at heart. It is like the Chinese saying which says you are capable of handling the treasured sword even though you may be old.
