有酒當歌

生老或病死、人生皆無常，

有酒應當歌、擊板為節奏。

憂憂傷我心、人生有幾何，

健全我身心、病擾亦無憂。

壯志今何在、歲月隨水流，

夜夜未能寐、輾轉又反側。

忽聞遠親病情嚴重 , 感嘆世事無常 , 勸君把握今朝 , 切勿徒留遺憾!

英文翻譯:

Old or sick and dead, life is impermanent.

We shall be singing when there is drinking, and the percussion by hitting on the plate for rhythm.

Sorrow hurts my heart, life has an unknown destiny.

Sound physically and mentally, and I am not worried about illness.

Where the aspiration is now, it is like the ages constantly flowing with the river.

Night and night make me can’t sleep, tossing and turning on the bed over and over again.
