京市繁華，霓燈不盡，遊人落驛難舒。
僕僕風塵，韶光瞬逝嗟乎。
異鄉荊旅多年事，戰商場，幾許聲譽。
念曾經，黃口雙雙，戲浴平湖。
悲歡哭笑今何在？望浮雲深處，舊友音疏。
或許來時，偷閒可把朋呼。
怎堪來日輕煙過，遠雁傳，訃句行書。
嘆如今，永隔陰陽，獨賸唏噓。
Vanished Friend
Around the corner I have a friend,
In this great city that has no end,
Yet the days go by and weeks rush on,
And before I know it, a year is gone.
And I never see my old friends face,
For life is a swift and terrible race,
He knows I like him just as well,
As in the days when I rang his bell.
And he rang mine but we were younger then,
And now we are busy, tired men.
Tired of playing a foolish game,
Tired of trying to make a name.
"Tomorrow" I say! "I will call on Jim
Just to show that I'm thinking of him."
But tomorrow comes and tomorrow goes,
And distance between us grows and grows.
Around the corner, yet miles away,
"Here's a telegram sir," "Jim died today."
And that's what we get and deserve in the end.
Around the corner, a vanished friend.
