A gentle spring evening arrives
airily, unclouded by the world.
Three times the bell tolls; it echoes like a wave.
We see heaven upside-down in the lake.
Love is a vast sea. It cannot be emptied.
And, like springtime, insight flows easily, everywhere.
Where is nirvana?
Why, here, of course.
Ho Xuan Huong
