Hong Kong's richest man, Li Ka-shing, is suspected of being seriously ill and wrote the "Sunset Ballad" on his bed he regretted that many things were realized too late.
He is 92 years old Had been the richest man for many years He was a workaholic, famous entrepreneur Only announced his retirement in 2018 After retirement, he began to enjoy life Now that he has free time, he wrote this "Sunset Ballard" to share with all!
1、天定人生是个零，过方过圆都不行。从零开始走向零，顺其自然心态平。 We are born with nothing, no more and no less and finally to return to nothing. Be as natural, normal and at ease as possible.
2、晚年莫想富有余，来者糊涂走者迷。生前死后啥属你？应该醒悟莫骗己。 Don’t aspire to acquire surplus wealth at sunset years. Those who have such an intention are rather confused or crazy. Just consider what belongs to you before and after death. One has to wake up and stop fooling ourselves.
3、能知足，便常乐，晚年过的要快活。富莫喜，穷莫愁，顺其自然享自由。 Be contented. Have fun and enjoy the sunset years. Do not be exalted if you’re rich neither too worried if poor. Take it along as naturally and savour the freedom.
4、莫强求，莫相争，人生如梦似烟云。天也空，地也空，人生渺茫在其中。 Don’t forcibly demand, neither compete. Life is like a dream or a fleeting cloud of smoke. Look at the vast and empty sky and land, we are just a tiny speck drifting within.
5、日也空，月也空，江水奔流永向东。田也空，房也空，不断更换主人翁。 The sun is empty so is the moon. River water forever flows eastward (in China). Farm and house too are empty, continually changing owners.
6、爱也空，情也空，到头全进高烟囱。金也空，银也空，死后哪样握手中？ Love becomes nought, relationships too disappear. Finally, all will go into the crematorium. Even gold and silver, one does not grasp to take along after death.
7、名也空，利也空，双眼一闭美梦终。胜也空，败也空，人生如戏梦一通。 Reputation, honours and profits disappear into sweet dreams once the eyes shut down for good. Whatever gains or losses dissipate, life is like a drama.
8、官也空，权也空，无人一生坐朝中。富也空，穷也空，人生如此要想通。 No more minister status, no more the power that came with it. No one can remain in the ministry for life. Rich or poor, the final is void. That is nothingness when the curtain of life drops, be aware of that.
9、春去夏来秋又冬，潮涨潮落永无终，看破红尘好心胸。家家有本难念经，莫把烦恼挂心中。 The four seasons will rotate, so will the high and low tides. Every family has a certain difficult mantra to recite. Do not burden unnecessarily with worries.
10、养儿育女是义务，尽力帮衬乐其中。儿孙自有儿孙福，莫让儿女困笼中。只要晚年身体好，一生活在幸福中。 Raising and educating children is a responsibility and duty. It is a blessing to be able to help. Children and grandchildren shall build their own future, do not be duty-bound by them. It is far more a blessing to take good care of our own well-being during the sunset years.
11、朝到西，晚到东，世人如同采花蜂。采花酿蜜为谁甜，终生辛苦一场空。看得宽，想得通, 与世无争长寿翁。 Man hustle and bustle about earning a living like bees collecting honey. Just wonder the honey is made for whoever, ever thought the life-long hard work will end up in nought. Be more liberal and accommodative, think rationally to avoid disputes.
12、远看医院像天堂，救人无数；近看医院像银行，敛财无数；走进医院是牢房，不如提前去预防！ From a distance hospitals are like heaven, curing so many patients. Viewing from a close range, hospitals are like banks raking in a lot of cash. Getting inside the hospital is like getting into prison. It is far better to take preventive measure well in advance
13、健康是无形资产，保健是银行存款，疾病是贷款还款，大病会倾家荡产，莫把此言当调侃，待到真时悔已晚！ Health is an invisible asset, health enhancement is bank saving, contracting disease is a bank loan and re-payment, serious illness can cause bankruptcy. These are earnest facts of life and to be regarded seriously. Do not let this happen, it will be too late to regret it.
14、宁可站着自保健，绝不躺着被人骗！不养生就养医生，不保健就养医院！爱家人要爱自己，爱自己才是远见！ It is better to stand alone to enhance immunity rather than to lie down and be cheated. Love the family must start with loving own self. Loving own self is therefore a farsighted shot.
15、一辈子太短，别在金钱上心烦！家财万贯，也买不来太阳不落山。黄金万两，也换不来身体的康健。生死有命，富贵在天！命里有时终须有，命里无时莫强求！儿孙自有儿孙福，莫为儿孙作马牛！一辈子太短，要看轻看淡！功名利禄，不过是浮云一片；荣华富贵，不过是一时盛宴。眨眼之间青丝换白头，一切往事皆成云烟，何必时时放在心间，何必处处钻牛角尖！ A life span is too short. Do not get bogged down with money worries. Tons of cash wouldn’t buy a sun that doesn’t set. Loads of silver and gold can’t exchange for health. Life and death is fated and wealth too. If it has been fated (in our Ming 命) that we will be wealthy, it will be. But if it’s fated otherwise, it is pointless to crave for it.
A point worth reiterating is that the children and grandchildren will and should carve out the path for their future, there is no need to slog like buffalo and horse for them. A life span is really too short, it is advisable to take life plainly and light-heartedly. Fame and gain are just like drifting cloud, extravagance and luxury are momentary exuberance, in rapid glimpses of fleeting time, the hair will turn grey to white, churning all past events into smoke and cloud, what for let them linger in the heart, to pester and bugger us deeper into the bull’s horn.
