1. "The Turtle Lives Long"

The author is Cao Cao? Han Dynasty

Although the turtle lives long, it still has its time;

A soaring snake rides on the mist, but ends up in ashes.

The old man is still ambitious, but his ambition is thousands of miles;

The martyrs are ambitious in their old age.

The period of profit and contraction is not only in heaven;

The blessing of nourishing happiness can lead to eternal life.

Fortunately, I sing to express my ambition.

Vernacular translation:

Although the divine turtle is very long-lived, its life will eventually end; although the soaring snake can fly in the clouds and fog, it will eventually die and turn into earth. Ash.

Although the old thousand-mile horse lies beside the manger, his ambition is still galloping thousands of miles; even in his old age, the ambitious person will never stop working hard.

The length of human life is not just determined by God; if you take good care of your body and mind, you will surely live longer. I am so lucky to express my thoughts and feelings through singing.

2. "Spring Hope"

The author is Du Fu? During the Tang Dynasty

The country is broken by mountains and rivers, and the city has deep spring vegetation.

I am moved to tears by the flowers in my heart, and I am frightened by the hatred of other birds.

The war rages on for three months, and a letter from home is worth ten thousand gold.

The white-headed scratches are shorter, and the lust is overwhelming.

Vernacular translation:

Chang'an fell, the country was broken, and only the mountains and rivers remained; spring has come, and the sparsely populated Chang'an city is lush with vegetation.

When I feel sentimental about state affairs, I can’t help but burst into tears, and the birds chirping startle my heart, which only adds to the sorrow and hatred of separation.

The continuous war has continued until now. Letters from home are rare, and one letter is worth ten thousand taels of gold.

Wrapped in melancholy, I scratched my head and thought. The white hair got shorter and shorter, and I couldn’t even insert the hairpin.

3. "Crossing the Lingding Ocean"

The author is Wen Tianxiang? Song Dynasty

After a hard encounter, there are only a few stars in the fight.

The mountains and rivers are broken and the wind flutters, and the life experience is ups and downs.

Afraid to say panic on the beach, sigh alone in the ocean.

Who has never died since ancient times? Keep your loyalty to reflect history.

Vernacular translation:

Looking back on my early years of hard work in transitioning from the imperial examination to becoming an official, it has been four years since the war broke out.

The country is in danger like catkins in a strong wind, and an individual is like duckweed in a shower.

The disastrous defeat in Panpantan makes me still terrified. Ling Dingyang was trapped in Yuanlu, but I felt lonely and lonely.

Who has been able to live forever since ancient times? I want to leave a piece of patriotic loyalty reflected in the annals of history.
