瞞天過海***
莫以為瞞天過海
便可以作奸犯科
違背良心的事情
始終是天地不容
正所謂天網恢恢
到頭來疏而不漏
犯罪行惡的所為
始終被社會處罰
Don’t think you can fool people***
Don’t think you can fool people, violate the law and commit a crime. Heaven and earth will know you’ve done something wrong if you violate your own conscience and do something injurious to people. There is justice in this world and you cannot escape from it. If you have committed a crime, you will be punished by the law.
留下的痕跡***
凡走過會留痕跡
人的一生也一樣
你所做的好與壞
總會有天知地知
只要慈悲去待人
凡事對得住良心
雖不會留芳萬世
也不會遺臭萬年
What is it that you leave behind***
Whenever people walk through a road, they always leave something behind that other people can trace back. Whether your deed is good or bad, it will be known. Always be kind to people and don’t do anything that is harmful to people. Although you may not leave behind a famous name, you won’t leave behind a bad name as a legacy.

游手好閒***
有些人游手好閒
天天都無所事事
這樣做人沒趣味
做人應該要勤奮
對自己深具信心
為自己身命負責
為人為己謀幸福
做一個有用之人
Be idle and do nothing***
Some people like to be idle and do nothing. Such behavior has no meaning in life. You should work hard and believe in yourself that you have confidence and that you are a responsible person who can make things happen. Go and do something for yourself and for the people around you. Be a contributor to your society.
追上潮流***
今日世界不停變
進步快到不可信
做人也要跟著變
天天要重估目標
要有實際的方向
要有應變的勇氣
更要加一點熱情
才可追得上潮流
How to go with the flow***
The world continues changing everyday. The speed of changes is incredible. It is going so fast that you have no choice but to cope with the changes. What you need to do is to evaluate your goals daily. Make sure you have attainable goals. Be prepared to have the courage to cope with the changes. Be passionate in dealing with the changes and go with the flow with enthusiasm.

守口如瓶***
小心駛得萬年船
誰人背後無人說
那個人前不說人
是是非非難避免
謹記不輕信流言
凡事應審慎分析
才可以出言判斷
最好是守口如瓶
Keeping one's mouth shut***
There is a Chinese saying that if you are careful, you can sail a boat safely for thousands of years. Who doesn’t say bad things about other people behind their back? Who doesn’t talk about other people’s behavior? Such talk is unavoidable. You just have to remember that people shouldn’t listen to rumors, but they do. Analyze everything in detail before you come to any conclusion. The best thing to do is to keep one’s mouth shut.
從容安定***
聽到不想聽的事
內心總會有不安
若果不控制情緒
會出現忿恨念頭
做出非理性事件
無論任何情況下
要練到從容安定
才不會魯莽行事
Keep calm at all times***
If you hear something that you don’t want to hear, you will feel uncomfortable. If you don’t control your emotion, you may get out of control and become so angry that you may do something irrational. No matter under what condition, always keep calm. Then, you won’t do anything regrettable.

會好憎自己***
如果長期與人比
追求別人的擁有
這樣做人無意義
會永遠失去自己
失去快樂和幸福
天天過著的日子
只是為別人而活
日久會好憎自己
Someday you will hate yourself***
If you continuously compare yourself to others and always want to own what other people have, you will find your life is meaningless. You will lose yourself and won’t find fortune and happiness. You are not living for your own good; you only live for others. Doing so, over a period of time, you will hate yourself.
討好別人***
刻意去討好別人
未必是可得人心
反而使人生惡感
對你未必會信任
討好別人靠不住
自己努力才實際
踏實做人創世界
才算對得起自己
Should you flatter other people?
Flattering other people may seem to be desirable, but it doesn’t guarantee you will win other people’s hearts. In fact, they may not like you and trust you because of this. The practical thing to do is to depend on your own effort. Be practical and work hard. Only then, you can take good care of yourself.

吹捧和抨擊***
聽到别人的吹捧
不太興奮要冷靜
內心要進行分析
把優點做到更好
聽到别人的抨擊
更加要頭腦清醒
分析所言的弱點
努力改正做到好
Flattery and criticism***
When people flatter you, don’t get too excited. Be calm and analyze your blessing. Find out the good points and invest more efforts to make them better. When people criticize you, again keep calm and try to fully understand your weaknesses. Invest more efforts to improve on your weaknesses till you transform them into strengths.
優點和長處***
人有自己的優點
也有自己的弱點
能及早發揮優點
把每天工作做好
不但可增長成績
還可增強自信心
贏得别人的讚賞
前途一定是美好
Talent and strength***
Everyone has one’s strengths and weaknesses. The sooner you can discover your strengths, the sooner you can apply them in your work. This way, you will achieve your results sooner. Once you demonstrate your strengths, you will build up your confidence and win other people’s respect. You will definitely have a bright future.

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.

一種幸福***
每一個人的愉快
不應寄託在外界
把權財特别看重
忽略內在的感受
一旦權財受損失
便感覺痛不欲生
其實有家人支持
已經是一種幸福
A kind of happiness***
An individual’s happiness should not depend on the outside environment. Don’t only focus on wealth and power and forget what it is that you really want inside yourself. Don’t feel depressed once you have lost either your wealth or power. You always have support from your family members. This kind of support is a kind of happiness.
不知足***
如感覺不到幸福
其實是極大悲哀
身邊有家人存在
有份工作可生活
其實是非常幸福
為何不感到幸福
事實只是不知足
身在福中不知福
Don’t be discontented***
It is actually a sad thing if you don’t feel you are fortunate. Actually you should feel comfortable and fortunate because you have family members at your side and they are willing to support you at all times. You also have a job. Why don’t you feel fortunate? The truth of the matter is that you are not satisfied with what you have. But the fact is that you don’t know how fortunate you are.
