No matter how tired, it still feels worthwhile; no matter how painful, it feels glorious!
It's unbelievable how time has passed,
This awkward age,
Love has faded, and death is still far off.
Being willful and snapping at others,
Silence suggests you're selling yourself short,
Fashion says you're a bit alluring,
Simplicity suggests you're a provincial fool,
As you grow old, life is half-way through,
Without the vigor of youth,
Without the comfort of childhood,
Worried about your own old age,
Striving for your children's property.
You dare not rest, nowhere to run,
The bitterness of old age is beyond description,
Everyone says their parents are good,
It's actually about respecting the young and obeying the old;
Serving your children and reimbursing them for their expenses,
After decades of hard work,
Retiring and becoming a cook,
An endless kitchen journey,
An unending household chores,
The bitterness of old age is endless,
Enjoying retirement benefits,
Holding multiple roles,
Laundry, cooking, sweeping, and cleaning the toilet,
No applause to encourage you,
Only requests waiting for you,
You need to coax yourself,
A great belief supports you,
The bitterness of old age is only understood by the elderly,
The heavens weep for you,
Asking you if you're tired,
You simply reply:
You understand nothing!
This is the joy of family harmony, everyone is intoxicated!
The bitterness of old age is only understood by the elderly,
It's a sweet kind of bitterness,
It's a willingly endured bitterness,
You suffer,
Which can bring your children comfort, not suffering,
You care for yourself,
Which can bring your family happiness, not pain,
No matter how tired, it still feels worthwhile,
No matter how painful, it feels glorious!
People in their fifties understand.
