原詩:

不問名利不爭雄，紅顏相守有時終
可嘆人生江東流，鏡花水月亦虛夢。

譯詩:

Power and fame
Money and name
neither I want them

Finally till then
Love will come to end
For life is finite.
She's no longer then.

Alas I can only sigh
My life has gone by.
Like water runs wild
to the end it destined right.

Like water , like name
flower wither
moon will wane
never last for long then
By the end
we will all waken and see them
it's all dream and illusion.
