Hermitage on Huashan, Shaanxi
Written On The Dwelling of a Recluse
|
Jia Dao 793-865
Even though you have a brushwood door,
it hasn't been shut for a long time;
A few clouds, a few trees
have been your only companions.
Still, I suspect if you stay longer,
people will learn of this spot;
We'll see you moving
higher on the mountain.
Alternate Translation by 東波 Dongbo:
Brushed on a Hermit's Hut
Although you brushwood door
is hardly ever shut,
And a slice of clouds
one solitary tree
help you idle away
your time.
Yet I suspect
if you stay here longer
people will find you,
Then you'll move
even deeper
in the mountains!
