  《卜算子‧詠梅》diu2   

赤子鎮街邊，命運丹心主。
智勇雙全不用愁，豈懼風和雨。

無悔好青春，那怕非人妒。
護我香江卻紅塵，衛港將來故。

Guarding o’er thoroughfares major,

Many a Child and Teenager!

To strive for their Future they just dare –

To be one’s own Master, is it fair?

Wise and brave, but they’re not unafraid –

They hold their positions, come what may.

Of regretting their Youth, they’ve no trace –

Themselves against Jealousy they brace.

The Secular World ignoring,

Our Hong Kong they are defending.

“Why do you have to do this, mon cher?”

Oui! For my children’s Brighter Future!
