Original text:
Young people leave home, old people return, and the local accent has not changed.
When children meet strangers, they will smile and ask where the guests are from.
Translation:
I left my hometown when I was young and didn't come back until I was old. Although my accent hasn't changed, my hair on my temples has turned white.
Children in my hometown don't even know me when they see me. They asked me with a smile: Where did this guest come from?
2. Liu Yuxi's "Appreciating Lotte and Singing the Old" in the Tang Dynasty
Original text:
People who don't care about the old have compassion when they are old. The body is thin and the frequency is reduced, and the hair is thin and the crown is self-biased.
Waste books cherish eyes, and moxibustion is mostly for years. Classics are still familiar things, and people are like reading Sichuan.
It's lucky to think about it carefully, but it will succeed next time. Don't say Sang Yu is late, because it is still full of clouds.
Translation:
Who doesn't worry about being old, and who will show love to him when he is old? As the figure becomes thinner, the belt will become tighter and tighter, and the hat with sparse hair will lean to one side.
The reason why the book is put aside is to care for the eyes, because moxibustion is often used in the elderly and infirm. The more people who have experienced it, the more you can see it at a glance.
When you think about it, being old also has a good side. If you overcome the worry about old age, you will feel carefree and carefree. Don't say that it's nearly evening when the sun arrives in Sang Yu, and its afterglow can still shine all over the sky.
3. Song Dynasty Liu Guo's "Why Xin Lang Tired of Old Age"
Original text:
Being old is like being tired. Xiang Wenjun said, it seems like today, how can you have fun? The clothes have been stained with dust, red or soft. Looking forward to each other, the soul will break.
Translation:
I am like you, and you are like Wen Jun. As we get older now, we often feel weak. Excuse me, Wen Jun, we are poor and tired now. How can we live in the future? Looking back at the places where we lived together in Beijing, I'm afraid there are traces of our love for each other. Think about what you and I were like then. Why doesn't it hurt?
4. Song of the Old Man by Wang Jian in Tang Dynasty Original: The white-haired old man went out of Beijing crying on the emperor's birthday. Now the worship is more innovative, and half of the voices are sung wrong.
The white-haired old man burst into tears, and Taizong went out of Beijing to celebrate his birthday. There are many ways to serve now, just because I sang half a song wrong.
