萬事隨宜勿強攀。暫過朝市即歸山。勞生未必浮名好。稱性應須到處閑。都似夢中休問影。只堪吟裏更怡顏。襄陽道者寧知爾。猿鶴蕭然石室間。

Let the ten thousand affairs accord with fitness; do not force your grasp. / Passing briefly through court and marketplace, one immediately returns to the mountains. / A toilsome life is not necessarily bettered by floating fame; / Accord with one's nature: one must everywhere be at leisure. / All is like a dream—cease asking about shadows; / It is only fit to gladden the countenance further in chanting verse. / How could the Daoist of Xiangyang understand you? / Gibbons and cranes live desolate and free amidst the stone chamber.
