It’s a nightmare out there,
assholes wherever you go.
I’ll just hang at home and
enjoy the company of a cuddly cat.

外面世界太亂，
經常碰到混蛋。
索性閉門不出，
養匹肥貓作伴。 ​​​

In the wake of Covid,
There was no time to waste.
Busied myself this way and that,
But didn’t end up making much.
I’ve long been off my game
And repeatedly censored online.
Everyone’s pretty anxious with
No time to feel sorry for themselves.
What’s the new year going to bring?
Doesn’t look like things will improve.
Best to just seek out company,
And look on with ice-block eyes.

疫情過去之後，
一刻不敢偷閒。
儘管努力折騰，
沒掙幾個小錢。
心情總是不好，
網上常被禁言。
朋友普遍焦慮，
沒空顧影自憐。
明年什麼情況？
感覺越來越難。
只好抱團取暖，
冷眼坐觀明年。

A dramatic year might have come to an end
Still it’s hard to feel any sense of relief.
Look at the darkling clouds, feel the bitter cold
I’ll stay put and watch as the Year of the Dragon
stirs in the winds.

一歲跌宕終了，
時感心意難平。
四顧雲晦寒徹，
坐待風起龍行。
