宏智禪師廣錄 9.27

9.27

少食棗而齒黃。老飽鹽而癭亡。兔分月魄入犀角。
蜂採華滋歸蜜房。源深流長。體明用光。
巍巍堂堂。煒煒煌煌。檀篆香消默無語。烏藤相伴倚繩床。

In youth eating dates, the teeth were yellow; / In old age sated with salt, the goiter vanished. / The hare shares its lunar spirit entering the rhinoceros horn; / The bee gathers flower nectar returning to the honey chamber. / The source is deep, the stream long; / Substance is bright, function luminous. / Lofty and grand, / Splendid and magnificent. / As sandalwood seal-incense burns away, silent and without speech; / Accompanied by a black rattan staff, leaning against the rope couch.
