《病牛》 李纲
耕犁千亩实千箱,力尽筋疲谁复伤?
但得众生皆得饱,不辞羸病卧残阳。
A Sick Ox
Li Gang
It has ploughed a thousand mu of land and yielded as many bins of grain.
Has anyone shown compassion when its strength is all drained?
It does not mind lying ill and feeble in the fading sun,
If only there is enough food for people all over the world.
