- 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.
- 日有升沉起落 故有晚霞余映 月有阴晴圆缺 故有皓月当空 人有悲欢离合 故有聚散情缘 世有苦空无常 故有真理示现(日有升沉起落 故有晚霞餘映 月有陰晴圓缺 故有皓月當空 人有悲歡離合 故有聚散情緣 世有苦空無常 故有真理示現) If the sun didn't rise and set, the afterglow of twilight would not be. If the moon didn't wax and wane, we may forget it hangs brightly in the sky. If there were no sorrows of parting and joys of union, we would forget to cherish our time together. Without suffering, emptiness, and impermanence, we would not be aware of Truth.
