【轶飞随笔】步虚歌

人世有大伪，代谢总无常。

我生如过客，来去两茫茫。

寒潭不留影，空花隔岸香。

红尘多梦眼，一朝感凄惶。

道心唯寂寞，常在水云乡。

风起横笛去，吹动羽衣凉。

人世有大伪，代谢总无常。（图片来源：Adobe Stock）

Seeking the Way

translated by Jennifer Zeng（曾铮）

Our human world is full of illusions

Everything comes and goes

Nothing is here forever

I was born into this world as a traveler

Equally bewildered when I arrived as when I leave

My shadow won't stay by the side of the cool lake

Nor can those upon the other shore reach or understand me

With empty dreams I wander around

Sorrow my companion

I seek the Way

But this loneliness can hardly be driven away

My heart longs for its homeland above the clouds

When the wind blows

I disappear with the soft sound of flute

Whilst heavenly breeze caresses me all around
