宏智禪師廣錄 9.422

9.422

曹洞宗乘。老難發興。秋波搖眼角。春雪點眉棱。
一步跨空劫。孤心相續燈。西母之桃兮。秀結三千年實。
北冥之鯤兮。蛻翔九萬里鵬。珊瑚枝枝撑著月。
出格雲門跛脚僧。

The ancestral vehicle of Caodong; / in old age, it is hard to stir enthusiasm. / Autumn waves ripple at the corners of his eyes; / spring snow dots the ridges of his brows. / A single step strides across the kalpa of emptiness; / the solitary mind is a lamp of continuous succession. / The peach of the Western Mother: / its fruit sets in elegance after three thousand years. / The kun fish of the Northern Deep: / transforming, it soars as the roc of ninety thousand leagues. / Branch upon branch of coral supports the moon; / the extraordinary, lame-footed monk of Yunmen.
