游泰山

远看泰山黑糊糊，

上头细来下头粗。

如把泰山倒过来，

下头细来上头粗。

Tour to Mount Tai

From afar Mount Tai looks dark,

Its top is small and bottom large.

If Mount Tai turns upside-down,

Its bottom small and top is large.

天上闪电

忽见天上一火链，

好像玉皇要抽烟。

如果玉皇不抽烟，

为何又是一火链。

Lightning in the Sky

Out of the blue came a chain of fire,

As if God needs to puff a square.

If God ain’t need to puff a square,

How come there’s one more chain of fire?

笑刘邦

听说项羽力拔山，

吓得刘邦就要窜。

不是俺家小张良，

奶奶早已回沛县。

LOL at Emperor Gao

The Hegemon-King is strong and big—

Hearing this, Gao’s fleeing like a pig.

If it wasn’t for my ancestor, Chang,

Emperor Gao’d be back at home, shit.
