Original Chinese verse

待时兴变自然明

只好守己静处坐

何须贪吝取功名

天寒地冻水成冰

Allusion

Wang Xiang of Jin was known for extreme filial devotion. His stepmother wanted fresh fish in winter, when the water was frozen. Wang Xiang lay bare-chested on the ice, and the ice opened, producing two carp for him to take home. People saw it as a response to filial sincerity. He later rose to high office and became one of the Twenty-four Filial Exemplars.

Translated verse
