A Zen Lamp Poem by Luo Zhihai

Vast Dongting Lake, light boats and soft oars shake the moon bright
Quiet Yandang Mountain, winding paths and stone bridges accompany the drunken pines
Evening drum and morning bell, before eyes, appearance completely empty
The ancient temple in the wilderness, a Zen lamp in the heart bright

禅灯


浩淼洞庭，轻舟柔桨摇明月
清幽雁荡，曲径石桥伴醉松
荒郊古庙，心坎禅灯一盏亮
暮鼓晨钟，眼前色相全然空
