天下武功百般样
Martial arts come in hundreds of variants,

无敌是一技之长
Being invincible is a skill,

这武林总多动荡
The martial world is forever a tumultuous world,

不若退隐另寻处风光
If you don’t plan to retire, then seek out another place to find glory

 

眠花下赏个春光, 何必事事都奔忙
Instead of running around all the time in life, why not slow down and enjoy the view of spring?

人生许一个志向 ,再添好酒看风云消长
I have but one goal in life. Give me some nice wine, too, while I watch the growth and decline in the world.

 

我看江湖喧嚣多纷扰
I see so many uproars in the pugilistic world,

寻常琐事不过哂一笑
Common and trivial matters you see in the pugilistic world can be should just be brushed off with a smile.

只愿酒足与饭饱 ,于心磊落随逍遥
All I ask is that I have enough to eat and drink, have a clear conscience and can lead an upright and unfettered life.

 

我羡人间山河多热闹
I envy the lively world

好友携酒笑说多叨扰,能同知己肝胆照
How nice is it to be able to drink and laugh with friends and be sincere with a friend?

埋身自在方正好
Staying hidden and free is perfect.

 

前方江湖有多长
How long is the road in the pugilistic world?

风月留待下一场
Stopping on journeys to take in the magnificent scenery

来去因果悬心上
Consequences will always be hanging in the balance

提剑待去斩是非风浪
Cut through the deceit and turbulence with your sword

庙堂举事总无常,纷争动荡皆为了称王
The imperial court is a place of unpredictability. All the fighting is just to be a monarch.

谁人肝胆忠义两肩上扛,或有谁人生来太薄凉
Who upholds loyalty and courage? Who spends their life distancing themselves from others?

 

我憎昏聩无知邪魔道
I detest the lawless and ignorant unorthodox sects

魍魉同行蛰伏在一角
Monsters can be found in hibernation along the journey

所求多是利中找
What people pursue boils down to profit

物欲贪遍都嫌少
Greed can never be satisfied

我杀人间贪妄与奸狡
I kill the greedy and treacherous

死生难料恩仇亦难消
Just as life and death are unpredictable, debts of gratitude and grudges are not easily erased

陈年往事有多少,俱在今朝一剑了
Regardless of how many debts of gratitude, friendships and grudges may existed in the past, they will be settled today with a single swing of the sword

 

我憎昏聩无知邪魔道
I detest the lawless and ignorant unorthodox sects

魍魉同行蛰伏在一角
Monsters can be found in hibernation along the journey

所求多是利中找
What people pursue boils down to profit

物欲贪遍都嫌少
Greed can never be satisfied

我杀人间贪妄与奸狡
I kill the greedy and treacherous

死生难料恩仇亦难消
Just as life and death are unpredictable, debts of gratitude and grudges are not easily erased

从来江湖出英豪,武林第一何足道
Heroes have always been made by the pugilistic world. Being the king of the martial world is nothing worth mentioning.
