Natural Instincts Poem by Luo Zhihai

天然本性

淩空扇翼，鷹鷲並非菜鳥
佈局伺機，蜘蛛真是網蟲
狡兔三窩，深居以備不測
羚羊雙角，飽食必防頑凶

注：第一二句羅志海作，第三四句錢永德作。


Natural Instincts

Are high up in the air flap the wings
eagle vultures aren't green hands
Spider is the true net worm
layout and watches for its chance

Three nests of the cunning rabbit
deeply lives and makes ready for accidents
Antelope's double horns
satiation must guard against the murderer

Note: first and second sentences by Luo Zhihai.
Third and fourth sentences by Qian Yongde.
