The Boundless Universe. Poem by Luo Zhihai

大千世界

山雀哪知琴委婉
家猫怎懂月朦胧
三千绿水皆含恨
万丈红尘总落空


The Boundless Universe

How can the tit
know the euphemistic lute?

How can the domestic cat
understand the obscure moon?

Three thousands of the green waters
all with hatred

Thirty thousand meet of the red dust
always comes to nothing
