洞庭春色賦
宋 蘇軾 ( 1036~1101 )

悟此世之泡幻,藏千里於一班;
舉棗葉之有餘,納芥子其何艱。

──選自《東坡詩集》

August 16

On the Spring Dongting Lake Scenery
Su Shi (1036 - 1101, Song Dynasty)
English translation: Miao Guang

Realizing that this world is like bubbles, delusive,
An entire world is embodied within a single spot.
While picking up a jujube leaf can be effortless,
Yet it is rather difficult to contain it inside a mustard seed.

── from Dongpo Shiji (Collected Poems of Su Shi)
