Lyrics and translation 陳浩德 - 賭仔自嘆




賭仔自嘆
Gambling Lament
拎冧六 长衫六
Six pass six
高脚七 一只大头六
High-legged seven, one big six
二三更 瓜老衬 输到我木
Two to three o'clock, endless bets, I'm broken down
日夜赌场嚟伺候
Day and night, I hover around the casinos
生意唔捞啊两头游
No time for business, I'm caught in this loop
我嘅钱输哂 真系冇羞
I've lost all my money, I'm drowning in shame
食更青 顶肚瘾 揾菜头
I eat cheap food, to fill my empty stomach
划积 又怕佢弹番转头
I borrow and I owe, but they're tired of my face
揾人借 佢拧下拧下头
I ask for a loan, they shake their heads
筹码部 佢又诈嬲
The cashier pretends to be angry
拈出码头把本抽
They snatch my chips and pocket my stake
烂手表 都当哂
Even a broken watch, they take it all
冚唪唥无谋 祖先不开眼
I'm reckless and foolish, my ancestors must be weeping
令我好担忧 我从前知道系咁丑
I worry and fret, I knew this was a losing game
我就唔使踎街头
I wouldn't be begging on the streets
拎冧六 长衫六
Six pass six
高脚七 一只大头六
High-legged seven, one big six
二三更 瓜老衬 输到我木
Two to three o'clock, endless bets, I'm broken down
日夜赌场嚟伺候
Day and night, I hover around the casinos
生意唔捞啊两头游
No time for business, I'm caught in this loop
我嘅钱输哂 真系冇羞
I've lost all my money, I'm drowning in shame
食更青 顶肚瘾 揾菜头
I eat cheap food, to fill my empty stomach
划积 又怕佢弹番转头
I borrow and I owe, but they're tired of my face
揾人借 佢拧下拧下头
I ask for a loan, they shake their heads
筹码部 佢又诈嬲
The cashier pretends to be angry
拈出码头把本抽
They snatch my chips and pocket my stake
烂手表 都当哂
Even a broken watch, they take it all
冚唪唥无谋 祖先不开眼
I'm reckless and foolish, my ancestors must be weeping
令我好担忧 我从前知道系咁丑
I worry and fret, I knew this was a losing game
我就唔使踎街头
I wouldn't be begging on the streets
End
End
