崔敏童·《宴城东庄》英译

一年又过一年春！百岁曾无百岁人。<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />

能向花前几回醉？十千沽酒莫辞贫。

In Response to the Previous Poem

Ts’ui Min-T’ung

Another year is gone; another spring is over!

Few have ever lived a hundred years.

How often can you get drunk in the midst of flowers?

Do not protest that you are too poor and wine too dear.
