明覺禪師語錄 5.91

- **Language:** Classical Chinese

### [5.91](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1996.5.91)

空巖清夜坐，蘚徑積深雪，瞑目思古人，徹曙落殘月。  
童敲石磬寒，猿掛枯枝折，杳杳無限情，分明向誰說。

> Sitting in the empty crags through the clear night,  
> Mossy paths accumulate deep snow.  
> Closing the eyes, thinking of the ancients,  
> Through to the dawn the waning moon sinks.  
> The boy monk strikes the cold stone chiming-slab;  
> The ape hangs and the withered branch snaps.  
> Deep and boundless feeling—  
> To whom can it be clearly spoken?  
> — English (machine translation) (machine translation)
