世事紛如夢,黃粱夢未醒。
世事纷如梦,黄粱梦未醒。
The affairs of the world are as tangled as a dream,and still we have not woken from the yellow millet dream.
夢中先說夢,夢醒總非真。
梦中先说梦,梦醒总非真。
Inside the dream we tell each other of dreams;once the dream is over, none of it was ever real.
有夢還歸夢,有因夢不成。
有梦还归梦,有因梦不成。
Some dreams go back to being dreams again;some have a cause, and still the dream comes to nothing.
