顾太清·《浪淘沙·偶成》
人生竞无休。
驿马耕牛。
道人眉上不生愁。
闲把丹书窗下坐，
此外何求。
光景去悠悠。
岁月难留。
百年同作土馒头。
打叠身心安稳处，
顺水行舟。

Gu Taiqing
Human life is an endless struggle
The post-horse and plow-ox.
On the brows of the Daoist sadness never grows:
Quietly holding a book of immortality, seated by the window,
What else is there to seek?
Prospects disappear far, far away,
Months and years are hard to detain.
In a hundred years’ time everyone will be a pat of mud,
So arrange a firm and safe place in your own mind,
And let the boat float with the stream.
（David McCraw 译）
