Poem Artwork

Once the flowing stream disappears

Into the mist of the low-lying valley,

We lose all tracks of its lofty humiliation.

 

Every heart has its heavy weight

Exponentially exposed in other realms;

Hence, relax to ease off your violent pain.

 

Strive to be an immortal, no less, because

This world is a solid tangle of stresses; so,

Don't let your mind dissolve leaving no traces.

 
Look in the round mirror of Heaven

And you will harm no one in vain; skip all shapes

Of the past and their gloomy shadows will vanish in no time.

 

Sit side by side with what is nameless --

What has its name is not an invariable thing

To make you feel like on a sinking ship.

 

Stick to your route along the Great Way,

Which is so great that it is nothing else

But liberation from all worldly conventions.

In other words, stay on your path and you will eventually find peace.
