葉鳴    葉鳴    葉鳴
萬物生            清泉動
密雲聚            不忍清澄
目眩
荒蕪人間        天地無瑕
左右傾倒        前後哀嚎
慈悲大山        天不應
萬劫大海        地不聞
人守    世間開
沙塵中            枝頭
一朵紅花

 

(translated by Henry Wei Leung)
chirrupleaf   ·   chirrupleaf   ·   chirrupleaf
all life into life   ·   pure fount stirring
dense clouds gather   ·   can’t bear the clarity
dazed eye
desolate mortal coil   ·   speckless earth and sky
left and right topple   ·   front and back wail
miseration mountain   ·   heavens don’t answer
ten thousand misfares of the sea   ·   earth doesn’t hear
man warding   ·   mortal realm opening
thick of dust   ·   branch head
one red flower
