On the roads of this mortal world, fate arises and fate falls.

陌陌红尘，缘起缘落。
Mò mò hóngchén, yuánqǐ yuán luò.

Mạch mạch hồng trần, duyên khởi duyên lạc.

Just as a person knows whether the water they drink is cold or warm, one is the best judge of their own situation.
//
如人饮水, 冷暖自知。
Rú rén yǐnshuǐ, lěngnuǎn zì zhī.
//
Như nhân ẩm thủy, lãnh noãn tự tri.
//
Như người uống nước, lạnh nóng tự biết.

In the lofty mountains and flowing waters, no one recognizes me,
At the corners of the earth, where should I seek?
//
高山流水无人识，
海角天涯何处寻？
Gāoshānliúshuǐ wú rén shí,
Hǎi jiǎo tiānyá hé chù xún?
//
Cao sơn lưu thuỷ vô nhân thức,
Hải giác thiên nhai hà xứ tầm?
//
Non cao nước chảy không người hiểu,
Chân trời góc bể nơi nào tìm?
