"Make hay while the sun shines" nghĩa đen là "hãy làm cỏ khô trong khi mặt trời còn sáng" = khi có cơ hội thì hãy nắm bắt lấy nó, hãy tận dụng tối đa các điều kiện thuận lợi khi còn có thể. 

Ví dụ 
The skiing (trượt tuyết) conditions won't be this good for another several months, so let's make hay while the sun shines. 

Jane: While my husband's out of town, I'm going to watch all the movies he wouldn't take me to see. 
Nancy: Why not? Make hay while the sun shines. 

The rain has always been notorious (khét tiếng, tiếng xấu) for playing spoilsport (kẻ phá đám), marching (diễu hành) relentlessly over the ambition of the desperate (tuyệt vọng) children, who want to make hay while the sun shines during their holidays. 

Along the same lines as “making hay while the sun shines,” road construction crews in the area have started working as if winter is coming sooner than later. Two major projects are underway (tiến hành) that will cause traffic flow (lưu lượng giao thông) delays, but will ultimately result in needed repairs or traffic flow improvements (cải thiện).
