李商隐·《北青萝》
残阳西入崦,茅屋访孤僧。
落叶人何在,寒云路几层。
独敲初夜磬,闲倚一枝藤。
世界微尘里,吾宁爱与憎。
At the North Green Vine Hermitage
Li Shangyin
As the sun sinks behind the hill in the west
I seek the lone monk in the hut on the crest.
Where is my friend amid the fallen leaves?
Up to the cold clouds the footpath weaves.
Alone, he is sounding the evening bell;
Idly he leans on a cane in his cell.
If human world is contained in dust fine
Why should I towards love or hate incline?
