In Abbot Zan's Room at Dayun Temple: Four Poems (2)

 Thin soft green silk shoe
 Shine bright white cotton scarf
 Deep store for old elder
 Fetch use for my body
 Self look change without interest
 Friendship how still new
 Daolin talent not age
 Huiyuan virtue surpass man
 Rain pour dusk eaves bamboo
 Wind blow green well celery
 Heaven dark face picture
 Most feel moist dragon scale 


 Fine green silk shoes,
 Bright white cotton scarves,
 Deep in storage for the elders,
 Fetched to wear upon my body.
 I see myself as old and dull,
 How can our friendship stay so fresh?
 Daolin's talents exceed the age,
 Huiyuan's virtue's superhuman.
 Rain-drenched bamboo by the eaves at dusk;
 Wind in green celery at the well;
 The sky dark, I face a mural,
 Most feeling the damp of the dragon's scales.
