每次打完桌球後
便這裡酸那裡痛，全身疲累不堪
便會猛然驚覺：
自己已經七十歲卻還以為
十七歲那樣盡力猛衝猛撞
真是不知量力呀不知量力
可是再次去打桌球
還是犯這同樣的毛病：
自己已經七十歲卻還以為
十七歲那樣盡力猛衝猛撞
已經養成習慣了嘛
重複與重疊難免！
歲月呀，是你故意
讓我陷在這種誤認裡不能自拔？
還是在考驗我的自制能力？
為什麼要開我這種玩笑？
難道你不知道這會造成怎樣的後果嗎？
請你鬆一下手行不行？
17 VS 70 Hsu ChiCheng
Each time I have played table tennis
I feel pain here and sore there, all tiredness
And suddenly I feel:
I’m already over 70
But I acted like I was only 17
Am I not overreaching myself
But when I again go to play table tennis
I repeat the same mistake:
I’m already over 70 but
I play forcefully like I was only 17
For an established habit
Repetition is to be expected
Oh years, you are intentional
For me to be bogged down in this mistake?
Or you are testing my self-control?
Why do you make such a joke on me?
Don’t you know the consequences?
Will you please let go of me?
