人凡此生在世间浮沉漂流:
贫贱富贵,处之淡然;
粗茶淡饭,享之坦然。
忠厚能生禄,宽宏能养福。
虚心过度就异变成虚伪,
精明过度就多变成自私。
Mortal life floating adrift in the world :
Rich or poor, it is indifferent;
Bread and potatoes, can enjoy the ease calmly.
Honest can be born, generosity can raise happiness.
An excess of modesty becomes hypocrisy,
Too much shrewdness becomes selfish.
