Yes, I’m Truly A Dunce Poem by Taigu Ryokan
Yes, I’m Truly A Dunce
Rating: ★4.8
Yes, I’m truly a dunce
Living among trees and plants.
Please don’t question me about illusion and enlightenment --
This old fellow just likes to smile to himself.
I wade across streams with bony legs,
And carry a bag about in fine spring weather.
That’s my life,
And the world owes me nothing.

'' I’m Truly A Dunce '' :)) Ryō means good, kan means broad, Taigu means great fool; - Ryōkan Taigu would thus translate as broad-hearted generous fool
