1.120

一尺水。一丈波(幸自河清海晏)五百生前不奈何(早知今日事。悔不慎當初)
不落不昧商量也(頑涎不斷)依前撞入葛藤窠(纏腰繳脚)
阿呵呵(堪笑堪悲)會也麼(按牛頭喫草)若是爾灑灑落落(如蟲禦木)
不妨我哆哆和和(偶爾成文)神歌社舞自成曲(拍拍是令)
拍手其間唱哩囉(細末將來)

"A foot of water, a fathom of wave: (Fortunately, the river was clear and the sea calm.)
Before five hundred lifetimes, nothing could be done. (Had he known today's outcome, he would regret not being careful at the beginning.)
Deliberating on 'not falling' and 'not blind', (The stubborn spittle does not cease.)
As before, he bumps into a nest of entangling vines. (Binding the waist and wrapping the legs.)
Ah, haha! (Lamentable, laughable.)
Do you understand? (Pressing the cow's head to eat grass.)
If you are free and unconstrained, (Like an insect eating wood.)
It does not hinder my babbling along: (Coincidentally forming an inscription.)
Spirit songs and village dances make their own tune; (Every beat is a command.)
Clapping hands in their midst, singing li-luo." (Pound it fine and bring it forth.)
