虛堂和尚語錄 7.224

7.224

來拜東山祖，峯高日未央，遐瞻心已足，右繞興何長。
啼鳥驚人去，飛花過水香，西河牙爪在，曾不媿汾陽。

I come to bow to the patriarch of East Mountain;
The peak is high, the sun has not yet reached its height.
Gazing afar, my heart is already satisfied;
Circumambulating to the right, how boundless is my inspiration!
Crying birds startle people as they take flight;
Falling petals pass over the fragrant water.
The claws and fangs of the West River remain;
He was never ashamed before Fenyang.
