重巖我卜居,
鳥道絕人跡,
庭際何所有,
白雲抱幽石;
住茲凡幾年,
屢見春冬易,
寄語鐘鼎家,
虛名定無益。

寒山

Towering cliffs were the home I chose
bird trails beyond human tracks
what does my yard contain
white clouds clinging to dark rocks
every year I've lived here
I've seen the seasons change
all you owners of tripods and bells
what good are empty names
