醒世詩
明 念菴禪師（1504～1564）
世事紛紛如閃電，輪迴滾滾似雲飛；
今日不知明日事，那有工夫論是非。
Awakening the World
Nian’an (1504 - 1564, Ming Dynasty)
English translation: Fo Guang Shan International Translation Center
Worldly matters come and go like lightning.
The wheel of rebirth rolls forward like drifting clouds.
We cannot predict today what will happen tomorrow,
Where can we find the times to gossip and criticize?
