2.39

歲月將闌,天光普寒,鄙叟復枕,盤桓且難。萬杉禪客來尋我,言意勤勤勉清墮,拂曙片帆重率歸,百節四肢難負荷。風之泠泠,潮之平平,強寫離辭幾不成,巖層落落舊知己,相見無忘極此情。

The year draws to its close, the cold skies spread everywhere; / This humble elder rests his head again, lingering with difficulty. / The Chan guest of Wanshan came searching for me, / Words and intentions diligent, exhorting against laxity. / At daybreak, with a single sail, he sets off to return; / With a hundred joints and four limbs, it is hard to bear the burden. / The wind is whistling, the tide is calm; / Straining to write these parting words, they are barely formed. / The crags stand towering, an old intimate friend; / Meeting each other, do not forget the depth of this feeling.
