萬松老人評唱天童覺和尚頌古從容庵錄 2.44

Language
Classical Chinese

2.44

淡中有味(誰教爾添鹽著醋)妙超情謂(別日爾商量)綿綿若存兮象先(已落第二)
兀兀如愚兮道貴(無人著價)玉雕文以喪淳(和尚手高)
珠在淵而自媚(少賣弄)十分爽氣兮清磨暑秋(體露金風)
一片閑雲兮遠分天水(好事多魔)

Within the bland there is flavor— / (Who told you to add salt and vinegar?)
Wondrously transcending sentiment and assertion. / (We'll discuss it on another day.)
Continuous, as if remaining, prior to forms; / (Already fallen into the secondary.)
Steadfast as though foolish, the Way is noble. / (No one sets a price on it.)
Jade carved with patterns loses its genuineness; / (The Venerable's hand is skilled.)
The pearl in the abyss is naturally charming. / (A bit too showy.)
Ample crisp coolness freshly polishes summer into autumn; / (The body exposed in the golden wind.)
A single wisp of idle cloud parts sky and water far apart. / (Good things encounter many demons.)
