The verses expressing reunion are as follows:
1. I am a guest from the East and the West, and I give gifts to others when I meet them. We should not see each other until we grow old, but we should part ways frequently.
Translation:
The most rare thing in the world is to meet again, but reunion and separation may be the saddest things in life. This is what happens to us now.
Appreciation:
Actually, it’s not that I looked older when we met, it’s just that I was too tired after parting too many times. Day by day, due to various things, we fail to observe and appreciate the beauty of spring and feel the love of friends. Only when the moment of real separation comes, do we regret it.
2. If you don’t meet each other in life, it’s like participating in business. This night and what night, *** this lamp candlelight.
Translation:
The world is impermanent, the road ahead is vast, and time is really ruthless. With one cut, some people will be separated from each other, and even worse, heaven and man will be separated forever. What a happy thing it would be to reunite with old friends of more than 20 years.
Appreciation:
You and I have gray hair and are full of children and grandchildren; you and I have thousands of words but only two lines of tears. There is sadness and joy in the poem. His joy is because he reunited after a long separation, and his sadness is because he is full of vicissitudes in the face of this troubled world.
3. Jiang Han was once a guest, and he returned drunk every time we met.
Translation:
I remember when I was a guest in a foreign country, wandering across the country; I would gather with you in a foreign land and return drunk hand in hand.
