波浪男兒: 塵世永無公允事, 衹須理會有心人; This secular world is never fair; So, take heed only from those you care.

 塵世永無公允事   波浪男兒 中


叔叔 給 小妹妹 (祖安娜 • 班奈特) 詩一首:

塵世永無公允事,
衹須理會有心人;
乾坤控制難由我,
擺佈當知不任君。

任爾謊言來戲弄,
歡呼暗箭與明槍;
易傷心緒多穿甲,
路路非能到瑰亭。

不記怨尤忘過去,
身心人各不相同;
守持節操蒼天意,
歲月優遊樂不窮。

TO SIU MEI MEI (Joanna Bennet)-- FROM UNCLE 
-- by Frank C Yue
 

This secular world is never fair;
So, take heed only from those you care.
For most things, simply one cannot control;
Let not others tell you when to "sit" or "roll".

But I do let them keep their lies, laughs and jeers;
Slings and arrows could only give me more cheers.
(No, not tears)
Sensitive hearts shall need extra armour;
Not all the paths lead to the rose arbour.

Now, let bygones bygones be --
For they are them, I am me.
Angels we all should be, could be --
Meanwhile, I'll be happy, worry free.
