送惟鳳之終南山
Seeing Weifeng Off to Mount Zhongnan
釋希晝
Chinese
關內寒生早，南山萬木凋。 長空人望絕，積雪獨尋遙。 靜息非同隱，閑吟忽背樵。 幾侵峯頂月，相念起中宵。
English
Within the passes, the cold sets in early;
On Zhongnan, myriad trees wither.
Under the vast sky, human presence vanishes;
Deep snow; alone, seeking afar.
Quiet repose, not mere reclusion;
Chanting leisurely, suddenly leaving the woodcutter behind.
Almost touching the moon at the summit;
Thoughts of one another stir at midnight.
