林晴啼鳥響
早起出門行
欲汲清溪水
前山受日明
2
唯有白雲動
我心歸一聞
超然窮達外
獨坐見空山
3
忽有清機發
吟詩上翠微
夕陽明古逕
松色照寒衣
4
獨徃空山夕
相隨一古琴
水中天上月
雨雨照吾心
5
初日照門戸
一花高立霜
起來汲寒水
山色遠蒼蒼
6
我心清不寐
明月在天閒
寂寂虚窓外
秋聲夜動山
7
曲逕通深竹
故人有幽墅
思詩坐雨前
可與青山語
8
颯颯空林葉
荒村燈火青
行人不見影
一犬吠寒星
9
古寺寒燈照
幽人獨坐長
夜深如有鬼
風葉走虚廊
10
山靜雲猶宿
日高門未開
落花幽意動
啼鳥故人來
11
客去柴門寂
秋心弄物萃
幽禽啄枯葉
寒日照孤花
1 Sky over forest clears, singing birds echo,
Up early I am out the door to walk.
I want to draw water from the clear stream
As the mountains ahead receive the sun’s light.
2 Only the white clouds are moving—
My heart returns to primal peace.
Transcendentally, beyond success and failure,
I sit alone to watch deserted hills.
3 Suddenly pure inspiration strikes—
Chanting poems I climb the blue-green slopes.
Evening sun glows down the ancient path;
Pine tree colors illumine my cold robe.
4 Alone I go up the empty mountain–evening,
And all I bring is my ancient lute.
In stream water, in the sky—two moons,
And this pair now glows within my heart.
5 The new sun shines on my gate;
One flower grows there, upright through the frost.
I rise to draw some cold well water;
Mountain colors stretch far away.
6 My mind too clarified for sleep,
The moon appears in Heaven.
In the silence outside my empty window
Autumn sounds are shaking the mountain tonight.
7 A winding path leads deep into bamboo
Where a friend has a hidden retreat.
Meditating poems we sit as rain comes down;
We can discuss them with these mountains of green.
8 Soughing, soughing, leaves in the empty wood;
From the deserted village, one lamplight, dim.
The traveler sees not a single shadow;
Somewhere a dog barks at the cold stars.
9 In the ancient temple, one cold lamp glows;
The hidden one sits alone for hours.
Deep in the night, there seem to be ghosts:
Windblown leaves twirling down empty cloisters.
10 The mountain, calm, last night’s clouds still here;
The sun is high, the gate remains unopened.
Flowers falling—movement of mysterious
