I will live this day as if it is my last.
I will seal up its container of life so that not one drop spills itself upon the sand.
I will waste not a moment mourning yesterday’s misfortunes, yesterday’s defeats, yesterday's aches of the heart,
for why should I throw good after bad?
Can sand flow upward in the hour glass?
Will the sun rise where it sets and set where it rises?
Can I relive the errors of yesterday and right them?
Can I call back yesterday's wounds and make them whole?
Can I become younger than yesterday?
Can I take back the evil that was spoken, the blows that were struck, the pain that was caused?
No. Yesterday is buried forever and I will think of it no more.

假如今天是我生命中的最后一天。
我要把一天的时间珍藏好，不让一分一秒的时间滴漏。
我不为昨日的不幸叹息，过去的已够不幸，不要再赔上今日的运道。
时光会倒流吗？太阳会西升东落吗? 我可以纠正昨天的错误吗？
我能扶平昨日的创伤吗？我能比昨天年轻吗？
一句出口的恶言，一记挥出的拳头，一切造成的伤痛，能收回吗？
不能！过去的永远过去了，我不再去想它。
