Treasure what is in Hand

He who hasn’t hunted a fat Grass-cutter

He has started to negotiate its sale with a prospective buyer;

Let’s ask him:

What if he wasn’t lucky in his game?
How would he not game in chance
Before he’s relieved of pecuniary troubles?

He who hasn’t seen the downpour;
He has started to empty his water pots.
Let’s ask him:
What if the Water refuses to descend from on high?
How would he find water for the necessities?

He who hasn’t set his trap
He has started to consume the liver of his catch;
Let’s ask him:
What if his trap becomes a trash?
How would he not eat his meal meatless?

What is in one’s hand is what one possesses!
A single bird in hand is more valuable
Than thousands in the jungles and forests
That we haven’t caught; not to talk of making barbecue of them.
Let’s treasure well what’s in our hands.
Let’s not because of what we haven’t gotten
Throw what we have into trash barrel.
How handsome is Contentment in life!
Treasuring one’s current possession is always good at all time.
