菩萨蛮 惠山佛殿 PUSAMAN Budda-hall in Huishan Temple

张宁•仁安 By Zhang Ning

惠山佛殿依稀过， I remember dimly passing by Budda-hall in Huishan temple

经堂引磬禅音和。 Listening to chiming with Buddhist chants in the ure hall.

清乐绕山坡， Around the hill the elegant music ringing,

梵声散曼陀。 Carried a sense of solemnity with sutra chanting.

庭前香雾锁， Insence oke curling up before the court,

素女修晨课。 A girl was intoning Buddhist text,

听度娑婆， Listening to the dharmato get relieved,

人生讵几何。 No one stays long enough in this world.
