Rule Of Conduct Poem by Luo Zhihai

做人准则

燕舞莺歌，雨打柳弦弹夏律
山清水秀，风吹竹韵送秋波
圣贤教诲，人前莫竖无名指
弟子聆听，背后不嚼三寸舌


Rule Of Conduct

Mountains clear and water pretty
wind blows the bamboo rhymes
sends the autumn waves
Swallows dancing and orioles singing
rain plays the summer rhythm
beats the willow strings

Before people don't erect a ring finger
sage teachings
Behind people don't chew three inches of tongue
disciple listening
