画说唐诗第四十二篇---破山寺后禅院

作者：常建

清晨入古寺，初日照高林。

曲径通幽处，禅房花木深。

山光悦鸟性，潭影空人心。

万籁此俱寂，但余钟磬音。

A Buddhist Retreat behind an Old Temple in the Mountain

Chang Jian

I come to the old temple at first light,

Only tree-tops are steeped in sunbeams bright.

A winding footpath leads to deep retreat;

The abbot's cell is hid 'mid flowers sweet.

In mountain's aura flying birds feel pleasure;

In shaded pool a carefree mind finds leisure.

All worldly noises are quieted here;

I only hear temple bells ringing clear.
