長寿の心得
The secret of longevity

(The new version)

人生は60才から
Life starts at 60.

70才でお迎えの来た時は
只今留守と言え
At 70, when death knocks at your door,
 tell him you're not home.

80才でお迎えの来た時は
まだまだ早いと言え
At 80, tell him he came too early.

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, tell him you're not in a hurry.

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, 
tell him you're almost ready to go.
