He returned home after becoming successful And built a fancy mansion along the river The windows were secured, and the walls had barbed wires The door was open with green plants and a few German Shepherd dogs At dusk, he was holding the dogs for a walk Everyone he met, he did not greet At night, every voice startled him Even the sounds of fallen leaves scared him 忘本 他衣錦還鄉 沿著溪畔蓋了一棟壯麗的別墅 鐵窗的格做得很細密 圍牆加裝刺網 門庭寬敞 植被綠意盎然 養有幾隻狼犬 任何人路過 牠們就追出來狂吠

She complains all the time It hurts, it hurts, Before someone can even react She complains again Scaring people away To make it even more realistic She takes painkillers in public and eats too much This time, her stomach really hurts 公主病 ( 2 ) 沒事就喊疼 這裡疼 那裡疼 等不及旁人過來關心 再尖叫更大聲 把人嚇跑 為了表現逼真開始吃止疼藥 當眾吃 逐次加量 吃出了腸胃病 ©Puzi (朴子)

Going Home Late at night, sitting in the courtyard in a daze Is penniless uncle, who’s falling sleep His humped shadow casts over a mottled wall He has been a wanderer Spending money on gaming and women But he still gives us red envelopes He has finished a beer, drunk and asleep The air feels like ‘s Panai Kusui’s Taitung 回老家 夜已深 呆坐在中庭出神的是 孑然一身回到老家的堂叔 漸入打盹 佝僂的側影映照在斑駁的西廂牆 他常年漂泊在外 人們說他把賺來的錢都花在賭博和女人身上 但他也發壓歲錢給我們

The most cruel thing Is to take a child away from the mother The wound will not heal Even if eternity passes She would rather live and die with her children than leave safely alone 一個在Beslan的母親 世界上最殘忍的事 莫過於從一個母親的身邊把她的孩子帶走 這樣的傷口 不會因為時間的久遠而癒合 她寧願與孩子共存亡 也不願獨自安然的離開 ©Puzi (朴子)

In the sample room there is a copper bell That is a remained sample from many years ago I have wanted to throw it away many times, but did not If I could send it to a faraway place in Africa And used as a school bell, that’d be nice 一個銅鐘 樣品室有一個手敲式的銅鐘 那是多年前出貨剩下來的樣品 每年我都想把它丟棄但又覺可惜 常想 如果可以把它送到非洲貧瘠的地方 當校鐘敲該都好 ©Puzi (朴子)

His way of life is being extra. All he does is sweet-talk, bootlick and pretend. The gift he so carefully prepares is nothing to the rich, Just like how he ignores gifts from the poor. 錢某 (2) 錦上添花是他處世的心態 逢迎 巴結 高攀就是他一貫的做風 他慎重準備的禮物人家不屑一顧 就如同他也看不上窮人送來的東西 ©Puzi (朴子)

After having a fit Someone gives her a chance But instead of taking that chance She poses even more Making it harder for people to help Can only despise 公主病 (1) 胡鬧一番 有人為她備妥下台階 她沒有順勢走下來 反而更作姿態 讓人難以攙扶 撒態 ©Puzi (朴子)
