送信南歸雁蕩山
Seeing off Master Xinnan, Returning to Mount Yandang
釋希晝
Chinese
千峯鄰積水,秋勢逺相依。 路在深雲裏,人思絕頂歸。 長天来月正,危木度猿稀。 谁得同無念,寥寥此掩扉。
English
A thousand peaks rest beside still waters;
Autumn’s breath extends afar, each supporting the other.
The path wades deep within the clouds;
The traveler yearning to return to the highest peak.
Across the vast sky the full moon comes;
Crossing perilous trees, gibbons’ cries dwindle.
Who joins in non-thought?
In this vast stillness, the gate closes.
