In fairyland cherished your icon
Registered profound respect in the house of god
Grass closed the people’s trail
Thick dust and bird’s deep trace
Flowing sand submerged alchemy furnace
Violet smoke enveloped on the strategic road
Thousand years later sad alone
Remained pine and cypress trees only

★ 过老子庙
☆ 李隆基 诗
仙居怀圣德
灵庙肃神心
草合人踪断
尘浓鸟迹深
流沙丹灶没
关路紫烟沉
独伤千载后
空馀松柏林
