近来愁似天来大，

谁解相怜，

谁解相怜？

又把愁来做个天。

都将今古无穷事，

放在愁边，

放在愁边。

却自移家向酒泉。

Now I Know

Xin Qiji

My sorrow has of late become as great as heaven:

Who will pity me?

No one will pity me.

After all I have to take sorrow as my heaven.

All the world’s affairs both old and new

I leave to everything to sorrow;

Leaving everything to sorrow,

I move and make my abode at Fountain of Wine.
