《八十書懷》葉劍英

八十毋勞論廢興  長征接力有來人
導師創業垂千古  儕輩跟隨愧望塵
億萬愚公齊破立  五洲權霸共沉淪
老夫喜作黃昏頌  滿目青山夕照明

《Thoughts at Eighty_1977》Ye Jian Ying

At eighty I need not be concerned with successes and failures
There are plenty of successors to continue our revolution ventures
A great leader has drawn up this grand plan for our country
The young can spearhead with no hesitation building a new economy
A billion people join hands to rid wrongs and create new deeds
Together with the world powers we stand or fall however we proceed
This old man enjoys singing for the colorful evening sky
All green hills in the sunset appear especially bright
