Age will mellow and refine.
时光荏苒变醇厚。
Friendships that have stood the test--- 经历岁月和变迁，
Time and change----are surely best; 友情才为最牢靠。
Brow may wrinkle, hair grow gray; 额头可皱发可白，

Western Wind
Anonymous 15th century
Western wind when wilt thou blow, The small rain down can rain? Christ, if my love were in my arms And I in my bed again!
Friendship never knows decay.
友情永不会苍白。
For ’mid old friends, tried and true, Once more we our youth renew. But old friends, alas! May die; New friends must their place supply. Cherish friendship in your breast----New is good, but old is best; Make new friends, but keep the old; 友，
西风何日刮？ 细雨何时下？ 但愿吾爱在， 相拥重欢眠。

啊,但愿我的爱人在我怀里，
让我们同床共枕重相爱!
Western wind when wilt thou blow, The small rain down can rain?
Christ, if my love were in my arms And I in my bed again!
