許其正：黃昏絮語

不要悲傷，不要哭泣

世間是溫暖

人生是美好的

有什麼好悲傷哭泣的呢

不要悲傷，不要哭泣

看！你的雙眼都塗滿夕陽了

看！你的心中都布滿灰暗了

有什麼好悲傷哭泣的呢

不要悲傷，不要哭泣

困苦艱難並不足畏懼

千山萬水都要去跋涉

有什麼好悲傷哭泣的呢

不要悲傷，不要哭泣

應該樂觀

應該奮發

有什麼好悲傷哭泣的呢

不要悲傷，不要哭泣

拋棄掉灰暗

努力工作吧

有什麼好哭泣的呢

Chattering at Dust　Hsu ChiCheng

Don’t be sad, don’t cry

The earth is warm

And the life is beautiful

There is nothing to be sad or cry for, is there?

Don’t be sad, don’t cry

Look! Your eyes are imbrued with sunset

Look! Your heart is filled with gloom

There is nothing to be sad or cry for, is there?

Don’t be sad, don’t cry

Hardship can’t be that awe-striken

A long journey is to be trudged

There is nothing to be sad or cry for, is there?

Don’t be sad, don’t cry

You ought to be optimistic

You ought to be strenuous

There is nothing to be sad or cry for, is there?

Don’t be sad, don’t cry

Discard the gloom

And work hard

There is nothing to be sad or cry for, is there?
