46. A yellowish moon over the lofty mountain

And the white clouds were forlorn

The ground is full of falling flowers

A Zen monk is in his wind-ashram

47. A bell’s chiming, what country?

 

47. A bell’s chiming, what country?

Some clouds in the sunlight

Flowers’ word all around nice grass

The leaves are falling on a Zen ashram

48. Musical brook is flowing on

 

48. Musical brook is flowing on

Thousands of birds are enjoying Zen poetry

Indolent clouds over the green grass

How mysterious the sound and colors were!
