THE ETHICAL FLOWERS
The ethical flowers penetrate into the mind,
Flowers of loving-kindness and compassion are fully filled with all mountains and rivers.
Each of us is each of poet,
Offering the world sweet-delicious flowers and fruits.
Although tomorrow we are far away from thousands of the route miles,
We are spiritual children of the Buddha forever,
Bringing the light of loving-kindness and compassion to the Dharma path,
Bringing love to spread over all directions.
Though there are so much arduousness and miserableness,
With our stability in Dharma learning and practice, we can overcome all.
The Scent of the Virtue
Meditation Door pervades fragrance,
The garden of the virtuous mind opens miraculously in the early morning and night
Even though we are far away from thousand miles of the bridge spans,
Flowers of the mind still blooms and contributes to the beautiful and fresh parts
Whether the waves and winds are full or less,
But sisterhood and brotherhood of the whole life are respectfully dedicated.
The Garden of the Dharma Mind
Meditative fragrance pervades near and far
The garden of the Dharma Mind blooms in four Seasons.
.
In spite of going thousands of miles of world ways,
The Dharma Mind does not let any part of it fade away.

Even though we are far away from thousands of the long way miles,
The love of the Dharma sisters and brothers in us everywhere is close, too.
