This place of mine never is entered by humans come for conversation, only by the mute moon's light shafts that slip in between the trees.
SaigyōEvery single thing changes and is changing always in this world. Yet with the same light the moon goes on shining.
SaigyōWhatever it is, / I cannot understand it, / although gratitude / stubbornly overcomes me / until I'm reduced to tears.
SaigyōLimitations gone: Since my mind fixed on the moon, Clarity and serenity Make something for which There's no end in sight.
