為名忙，為利忙，忙裡偷閒，飲杯茶去。
勞心苦，勞力苦，苦中作樂，拿壺酒來。
FUNNY COUPLET (at an old Canton Restaurant)

Busy for fame, busy for profit,
Now take a rest -- Have a cup of hot tea.
Brain-racking is hard, labour is hard,
Joy 'midst hardship -- A jug of wine for me.

為名忙，為利忙，忙裡偷閒，飲杯茶去。
看市滯，看股滯，滯中生悶，淡出鳥來。
為愛儍，為情儍，傻傻更更，虛渡此生。
為錢癲，為財癲，癲狂終日，了其殘生。
為酒狂，為色狂，狂亂人生，敗腎傷身。
