THE POEMS OF COLD MOUNTAIN: 154 by HAN SHAN

First Line: THOSE DAYS WHEN I HAD MONEY
Last Line: I HOPE YOU WEIGH THIS WELL
Subject(s): CHINESE LITERATURE; POVERTY; WEALTH; RICHES; FORTUNES;

Those days when I had money
I always loaned you some
now you're full and warm
we meet but you don't share
don't forget when you were poor
you clung like me to hope
ownership keeps changing places
I hope you weigh this well
