★ See a Monk off to Return Japan
☆ Poetry by Qian Qi (722-780? , Tang Dynasty, China)
☆ Translation by Luo Zhihai (1954-, China)
You can live luckly in China any times
Came on the way like in the dream
Now floating in the sky, in far blue sea
Free from vulgarity, Buddha dharma boat light
Silent mental state like moon in the water
Fishes and Dragons will come to listen to you chant Confucian classics
Best lovely, shining in your heart there still a lamplight
Sailing ten thousands li, bright in your eyes
◆ Chinese Text
★ 送僧归日本
☆ 钱起 诗
上国随缘住
来途若梦行
浮天沧海远
去世法舟轻
水月通禅寂
鱼龙听梵声
惟怜一灯影
万里眼中明
