The Buddha's Mind Poem by Luo Zhihai

佛懷

紅塵眷眷，一咏一觴皆戀曲
苦海茫茫，千修千世乃佛懷
雅致矜持，玲瓏玉帶丁香結
清幽羞澀，瀲灩池塘菡萏開


The Buddha's Mind

Vastness of the sea of suffering
a thousand years of cultivation is the Buddha's mind
Love in the world of mortals
a chant and a cup of wine are all love music

Elegant and reserved
exquisite jade belt and lilac knot
Secluded and shy
the lotus pond is blooming and rippling
