Since middle age I’ve been
a most enthusiastic Buddhist
now that I’m old I’ve settled
here in the mountain country
sometimes I get so happy
I have to go off by myself
there are marvelous places
I alone know about
I climb
to the source of a stream
and sit
to watch the rising mists
sometimes I come across
an old man of the woods
we talk and laugh
and forget to go home.
