观晚霞悟知无常因为夕阳近黄昏观白云悟知舒卷因为云出岫无心观山岳悟知灵奇因为远眺山无色观海洋悟知浩瀚因为海水碧连天(觀晚霞悟知無常因為夕陽近黃昏觀白雲悟知舒卷因為雲出岫無心觀山岳悟知靈奇因為遠眺山無色觀海洋悟知浩瀚因為海水碧連天) Twilight carries the message of impermanence, for sunset brings us closer to nightfall. Clouds carry the message of perfect ease, for they top the highest peaks unwittingly. Mountain ranges carry the message of spirituality, for from a distance, they look otherwise. The ocean carries the message of vastness, for it joins the sky beyond the horizon.
