長寿の心得 Long-lived knowledge

長寿の心得
Long-lived knowledge


人生は60才から
The life from 60 years old

70才でお迎えの来た時は
只今留守と言え
At 70 years old  when came to pick up
Say absence now


80才でお迎えの来た時は
まだまだ早いと言え
At 80 years old when came to pick up
Say that you are earlier


90才でお迎えの来た時は
そう急がずともよいと言え
At 90 years old  when came to pick up
Say that you need not hurry so

100才でお迎えの来た時は
頃を見て
こちらからボツボツ行くと言え
At 100 years old when came to pick up
Say that Seeing the time
I will go there by and  by
