Rough translation...
Mammon has arrived!
Mammon has arrived!
Mammon has shown up on my doorstep!
I welcome Mammon; I greet Mammon; I invited Mammon into my home!
I am always lucky since then...
Money is always rolling towards me...
When I run my business, my revenue always exceeds my cost by a million times.
When I buy lottery, I always win.
I receive everything that I have wished for.
Mammon has arrived!
Mammon has arrived!
Let us all welcome Mammon's arrival!

The spring breeze has kissed my face, telling me that it is spring now.
Even though spring is beautiful, I worry that spring will fade in front of my eyes.
The spring breeze has kissed my face, telling me that it is spring now.
Flowers are competing among themselves now to determine who is the most beautiful of them all.
Do not let flowers rot year after year!
When spring is still among us, let us wake up early in the morning to greet spring.
Let the spring breeze approach me; let the spring breeze kiss me on my face gently.
The spring breeze has kissed my face, telling me that it is spring now.
Even though spring is beautiful, do not let flowers rot year after year!
Do not let flowers rot year after year!

Rough translation...
I hope that you will prosper, I hope that your life will be exciting.
May good things come; may bad things go.
If I am polite, no one will complain that I am being too polite.
I hope that all young women in this world will marry fine young men, I hope that every couple will remain as husband and wife forever.
I hope that all children in this world will be cleverer than scholars in ancient times, may intelligence fill your minds!
I hope that my dear aunt will win all thirty-six rounds of mahjong without panting or becoming pale.
I hope that my dear uncle will be successful in every business transaction, I hope that his business' fame will spread far and wide, I hope that he will become so rich that he will move into a mansion soon.
I strut around, being optimistic will ward off all misfortunes.
I hope that you will prosper, I shout out loud that you will prosper.
I hope that you will prosper!
