Original poem:
Tomorrow after tomorrow, there are so many tomorrows.
Tomorrow will never come.
If the world is tired tomorrow, it will go to Qiu Lai as a veteran in spring.
Watch the water flow eastward and the sunset at dusk.
What will tomorrow be like in a hundred years? Please listen to my song tomorrow.
Translation:
Tomorrow is another tomorrow, how many tomorrows there are. If you just wait for tomorrow every day, you will only waste your time and accomplish nothing. The world is as tired of tomorrow as I am, and it will grow old after a year. Watch the river flow eastward in the morning and the sun set in the evening. How many tomorrows can a person have in his life? Please listen to my song tomorrow.

Poetry appreciation
Song of Tomorrow is a companion to Song of Today, and it also warns us to cherish time and not to waste it in vain. As long as we live, "tomorrow" will flow like a surging river, always new and endless. However, human life is limited. If you don't make progress every day, I'm afraid you can't do anything and waste time until tomorrow.
"The whole world is tired of tomorrow, and tomorrow will bring endless veterans", which is a common practice of natural people. They like to spend their whole lives waiting for endless tomorrow, showing a sense of regret.
