1. You enjoyed a glowing life in the spring festival
And lived prosperously like a mighty honored king

2. You have always been ahead of everyone else
In generosity and favor - outpacing the excelling

3. He who gave you glory and happiness
Raised you above the obvious enmity of the spiteful

4. Your enemies were humiliated before you
Seeing you distinguished with clear superiority

5. A gift from one with abundant and plentiful wealth
Yet too little compared to his gifts

6. He sees in you the causes of prosperity fulfilled
And takes refuge in your time of hardship

7. He has a need that obstacles have hindered
Prolonged barriers of procrastination

8. Yet there is goodness in despair for difficult matters
And relief from the promise of an unreliable man

9. I am thankful even if I could not fully repay you
Or suffice you, as miracles come only from you

10. So do not be pleased to guarantee my mortal well-being
For you are not wont to stand surety for your client
