请帮帮忙把这一段话翻译成英语```

从前有个富翁,有着许多的财富,一直很幸运。然而,令富翁烦恼的是,遇到了一个没日没夜爱唱歌的邻居,结果得了失眠症。最后,富翁想了个办法让邻居安静下来。

一天,富翁把邻居请到家里,问道:“你一定很快乐,是么?”

“是呀!我有一个非常善良能干的妻子,能不快乐么?”邻居说。

“你一定也有很多的钱了?”富翁问。

“很惭愧,一文多的也没有。不过正因为如此,我才无所贪求。”“你希望有钱么?”“有钱当然会使生活过得好一些,比如您……”邻居说。

“那么,我送你5万美元吧。希望你谨慎使用它,不到万不得已时不要随便挥霍掉它。”富翁嘱咐道。

邻居谢过富翁,高兴地提着钱袋走了。

回去后,邻居把这钱埋在家中的地下。从此,他的快乐也随同金钱一块儿被埋掉了。

白天,他提心吊胆,生怕有小偷进来挖走了钱袋,哪怕一只猫从屋中走过,也会吓得他一身冷汗。夜晚,他草木皆兵,忧愁、失眠,辗转反侧痛苦不堪。

而那富翁呢,倒是实实在在睡了一段时间的好觉。

终于有一天,邻居把这袋钱还给了富翁,说:“把这令我寝食不安的钱还给你吧,即使给我100万,我也不想放弃我的歌声,放弃我的睡眠,放弃我的快乐……”

金钱可以买到房屋,但买不到家;金钱可以买到珠宝,但买不到美;金钱可以买到药物,但买不到健康;金钱可以买到纸笔,但买不到文思;金钱可以买到书籍,但买不到智慧;金钱可以买到献媚,但买不到尊敬;金钱可以买到伙伴,但买不到朋友;金钱可以买到服从,但买不到忠诚;金钱可以买到权势,但买不到学识;金钱可以买到武器,但买不到和平;金钱可以买到小人的心,但买不到君子的志气;金钱可以买到享乐,但买不到快乐。

金钱并不等于快乐。快乐是互相的,只有能够给别人带来快乐的人,才能够得到真正的快乐。

Once upon a time there was a rich man, there is a lot of wealth, very lucky all the time. However, the ones that made the rich man worried are, meet a neighbour liking singing day and night, insomnia of result. Finally, the rich man thought a method lets the neighbour quiet down.

“Fine,” said the poor tailor. And so the tailor stopped singing and he became richer and richer.
